Maybe One Day I’ll Be Missed
To wake up everyday and see the shine in your own eyes, potential growing each day with each new sunrise
To smile at everyone, do deeds for others, listen to a friend when they need a shoulder to cry
Then as time passes by, they have no more need for you, no more contact, they don't even try
To them your friendship has expired
I guess the person you were, was not what they admired
It's painful to have such a big giving heart
Knowing it would be a mess the whole time and that you shouldn't even start
You do anyways that's why they say think with your head and not your heart
That's when things can fall apart
Words and actions come out dysfunctional, toxic and razor sharp
Over something so small, most the time you don't know what you did at all
You extend your love again and again
That's just who you are, that's the type of friend
That stays true and loyal and never gives in and would do anything to see their compadre win
Now days its nothing but competition, lust and greed
Nobody cares about the broken or the ones truly in need
Family even hates to see their own family succeed
Or recognize the change instead of holding onto things that happened third party
Or situations that never happened at all
Just wanting to see the rumors slither through your life, giving others wrong impressions and watch your fall
See your life slammed into a wall and the grim reaper on his next call
But I will always fight and never give up, if you are against me that's your loss of luck
Call my name, St. Patty's girl dressed in green, batter up
Success, stability, kids and love are what is in my winners cup
I'm unnoticed
I'm unloved
I'm forgotten, yet free
When I start to get down about my life I remember those that have it worse then me.
