Hes tryna keep it together
Thought that this would be forever

Though it's more then he thought
Her acts keep him distraught

You know it's hard to be a boy
In a society like today's
Hearts been broke to many times and so to God he sometimes prays

All the feelings stuck inside
The emotions we all hide
People say speak up though I cant control my mind

The second I'm depressed it's like the world forever ends
I'm not allowed to feel the pain on that it all depends

If I cry I'm too weak if I shout I'm just angry
Why not take a minute to try understand me

I cant remember the last time I looked in the mirror and thought I looked okay
I wake up every morning wishing there wasn't a today

My lifes a mess I keep it in
My heart distressed I'm getting thin

I havent ate in days I havent slept nights
I seem to fake a smile though I worry for hights

Too short too tall
I seem to sometimes stil fall

For girls who dont even care
Its 2021 I guess that shits rare

I feel as though I always keep it in
Though my music keeps me calm
My mind feels like its chasing birds
I turn to self harm
