DON'T BRING ME DOWN TODAY...
You bring me down everyday
But it's not working...
You say bad things everyday...
But it's not working...
You tear me down everyday...
I build myself back up...
If you see this pattern
Tell me why you keep going...
Your antics are unbelievable
Your character is unadmirable
And your attitude is dispicable...

I LOST...
the battle
the war
and the fight
I GAINED...
my dignity
my right
and my power
I WON...
the battle
the war
and the fight

WHAT'S NEXT?

I'm done...

I'm done with your attitude

I'm done wiht your craziness

I'm done with you being bipolar

I'm DONE...

I'm through...

I'm through with how you talk to me

I'm through with what you say to me

I'm through with how you treat me

I'm THROUGH....

It's over betweeen me and you

It's over, I'm through

It's over, I'm done

It's OVER, I'm DONE, I'm THROUGH...!!!

PATHETIC
You yell, you scream
Only at me...
You get mad, you get frustrated
Only at me...
Then...
You ask for my help
Needing me only...
You ask for me to do something
Needing me only...
Now you need me?
Now I am useful?
Now I'm good enough?
Now I should help?
I thought I was pathetic?
I thought I was useless?
I thought I wasn't good enough?
I'm not your puppet....

HALF A PERSONALITY

you look around and feel like no one will care

calling around, but no ones there

you ask yourself what went wrong

the answer's been in front of you all along

but the solution you think is not the best

to become the girls you see in school, you invest

the thought of becoming like those girls at school

but you don't know what the do to be that way

they use people and think thats its okay

you become one of them and lose a part of yourself

while you tear people apart like an old book on a bookshelf

its been going on and onfor too long

your power is growing bigger than King Kong

is this what you purely wanted?

you taking things from poeple,but they bought it

would you rather be in darkness or in the heat

this fake personality is what i hope you beat

but what about yourself

YOU ALWAYS ARE KEEPING OTHERS HAPPY
BUT WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF
AREN'T YOU SICK AND TIRED OF WAITING ON EVERYONE ELSE
BUT WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF
DON'T YOU ALWAYS WORRY ABOUT IF SOMEONE ELSE IS OKAY
BUT WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF
EVERYONE IS SO SELFISH AND TREATING THEMSELVES TO STUFF
BUT WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF...
ITS TIME TO WORRY ABOUT YOURSELF

LIFE IS A RACE
YOU HAVE TO RUN AT A FAST PACE
YOU THINGS AND SAY IT WAS A GOOD TRY
BUT YOU BETTER CATCH UP BEFORE LIFE PASSES YOU BY
IT DOESNT WAIT FOR YOU TO CATCH UP
WALKING WILL NEVER GET YOU THE FIRST PLACE CUP
LIFE IS A RACE
YOU HAVE TO RUN AT A FACE PACE

THIS IS A LESSON...
a lesson for those like you
with you i don't know what to do
you don't understand how to act around me
you don't know how to just let me be
a happy couple we may seem to look like
but its you i dislike
i can't go on anymore with this
this was just a hit and miss
i hope you lesson is learned...

EXPRESS YOURSELF

express yourself to how you feel

when you write it down it becomes real

write whatever comes to mind

mine just happens to be in a rhyme

you don't have to express yourslef with a word

it's just good know that you're being heard

people used feet to dance all around

some people use hands to make a sound

you can express yourself through art as well

not everything will be a hit you might fail

but when you fall you just get back up

start trying again and put your head up...

TRANSFORMATION

sad faces all walking around

depressed and stressed not making a sound

dragging their feet everywhere they go

not walking fast but moving slow

i walk through feeling out of place

because i walked in with a smile on my face

everyone looking at me all crazy

my vision getting a little hazy

i've got to change this place real fast

at the end we'll all have a blast

i go to work to make everyone smile

to get those teenagers a phone number to dial

the place is alive now until forever

this way we're all off better

people are smiling and getting in the groove

before i get danced "over" i better move

i'm the same person,but new

because finally i'm happy not blue

everyone talking to me in the hallyway

i'm walking down the hall saying in my head it's a good day

hoping that this is how it's going to stay

new year,new me

and thats the way its supposed to be

new attitude and the rest to me is history

fights are in the past

so i dont feel like an outcast
