This is what life really is
Not all fairy tales and roses
I'm putting down my walls,
So you can get a sense of some truth
So you can accept it
Reflecting on the days that I had it easy
Once upon a plastic heel
I grew up in the slums ain't no glass slipper real
running out of the club because the cops showed up
Mr. Prince Charming yelling, "you left your cup"
my cup of what? Sure wasn't my dignity
7am every morning
day in
day out
no breaks
work, school, sleep
repeat
what keeps me going
i don't want to go to the gym today
or school
or work
