You don’t allow me to help myself
You give me no voice
I try to hold it all together
But you take that away from me too
I’m feeling lost and alone
Despite being surrounded by loved ones
They can’t or won’t see my pain and frustration
I grow impatient for the chance to find happiness
But am determined stand my ground
I can’t give up
I won’t give up
Because that would mean that you win
I’ve never been a loser and I have no intentions of starting now
So take your scythe turn on your heals and look elsewhere
For there are no takers to be found here today for what you’re offering
I’m bound and determined to beat you
My place is here without you
I’m Bound and Determined to Beat You©
