Fighter

I’m a fighter but God I am tired

I’ve been thrashing around in the deep end of the ocean

But people say I must be a good swimmer

Honestly I’m just trying not to drown here

I’m a fighter but God I am tired

I’ve been in this boxing ring for days

And I just want it to be over

They hit me just hard enough to not let me retire

I’m a fighter but my God I’m so tired

Running this marathon I keep thinking after every hill it will get easier

But the mountain I am actually climbing doesn’t have that desire

I’m a fighter…

Please let this just be a bad dream I’ve inspired

M.A.P
