VOICES IN MY EARS

These voices in my ears are not what I love to hear

They bring me less joy and more fear

These voices in my ears comes like a mixtape

They keep confusing my thoughts after listening to the next tape

These voices in my ears brings Complications, Delusions, Dissatisfactions, and indecisiveness that leads to wrong Decisions

These voices in my ears are not serving me right

I do my best to win, but they say my best is not good enough

They make me feel like a flop

These voices in my ears focus only on my predicament, but forget that what I really need is encouragement

(Yeah) I know I sometimes make mistakes

But these voices in my ears always grab my flaws, throw them to my face and leave scars on me with their claws

These voices in my ears don't care about the sacrifices I have made and the sacrifices I am willing to make

The efforts I have applied

And the rocky roads I have to endure in my quest for success

So when I stomp and fall

When my life looks scramble

When I so dearly need a helping hand

When everything seems to be turning away from me

When tears becomes the order of my day

When I have lost everything and can't find my way

When my tomorrow feels like it's taking forever to reach me

When my today is no better than my yesterday

When I have to wait for the left over meals from tables, just to eat

When my room has only a bedsheet to sleep

When my wardrobe has only a shirt and a trouser and I barely have something to put on my feet

When I dropped out of school, because there's no money and when my dreams starts to fade

These voices in my ears shattered and mock me

They do not help look for solutions to my problems

They add to them and quite often they are my problems

Awww I’m not an expert of anything, but when I get lost trying on my own

I stand here brainstorming on what next to do

‘Cos I still believe in myself

And when these voices in my ears, give me weird energy

I save all those negative thoughts about me for later

‘cos I don’t need them

Yeah I know they will always be in my ears, and they will always be obstacles

But I’ll keep my heads-up and stay focus till I achieve my goals

‘Cos right now, I’m Allergic to these voices in my ears
