    Default I'm a Struggle

    *My childhood was quite complicated. I was born 26 weeks premature, and the consistent operations caused me to become legally blind in my right eye. I struggled severely as a child, but now I've come to embrace my misfortunes and use them to my advantage.
    This song is personal. I hope you enjoy.*


    Born on an early premises
    My life, I fight my nemesis
    I struggle so hard just to breathe
    Try to sustain the life in me
    I feel, I feel consistent pain
    The venom they try hard to drain
    I fight, struggle to stay awake
    So I could live another day

    Imperfections cloud my own mind
    They say I’ll be better in time
    Its hard when you can’t see what’s right
    Blinded by the blackness of light
    I only view from the left side
    I’ve always tried to run and hide
    But now its simply my own life
    That I alone will shape in time

    Woe is me
    What do I see?
    I’ve found love
    Inside myself
    I am blind
    Half-hearted time
    Take away
    I’m child’s play
    --My love has a place, filed it so
    Collecting dust, sadly its unknown
    Hopes raised, high is the bar to expect
    The life that once was, I now forget--

    I think it's awesome! I really do. you've taken things from your own life and put them in song form and it shone totally!! I can see it being piano based or guitar x
    I laugh to myself at the men and the ladies who never conceived us billion dollar babies

    Aw.. thanks Nicole
    I'm actually in the process of planning to create my songs well, into actual songs haha.
    I'm leaning more towards an acoustic guitar "MTV Unplugged" kind of feel, that show was basically my inspiration to create all my lyrics.
    I'm glad you've enjoyed it
