It feels like my life is one big circle,
I’m trying to go forward
But I’m on reverse mode,
Time is telling me my only remedy is
Time.
If that’s true why do i kill myself
Trying to prove I’m no failure?
I do things I’m not proud of,
Made promises that i walked out on,
And i feel i don’t deserve love.
So you can call me what you want
Just don’t call me a failure.
I know I’ve had some,
I’ve felt like one sometimes,
Won’t deny that
But just don’t call me a failure.
My biggest fear in life is knowing that i never tried,
But each time i try
I just end up feeling like another failure,
But i get afraid of not trying at all.
If you go through my mental notes,
You’ll think I’m just a lost cause,
I understand that cause i feel the same way sometimes,
But my biggest failure
Is knowing that i never tried,
So whenever i see an opportunity next,
I’ll chase it and try again.
And if it goes south,
And you call me a failure,
Just know that I’ll still be here,
Standing on my two feets,
Looking for the next one.
So you can call me all names,
Just don’t call me a failure.
