On my way down,
I wonder what life would have been like,
What it would be like if I didnt go down.
I visioned a husband, kids, and a sucessful career.
But it was too much,
Too much to handle,
The pressure from my folks, my friends, and my enemies.
I couldnt take it anymore,
Life isnt life if you have some enjoyable times and actually lived.
You see my life was planned out,
From the very day I was born,
I never got to pick what I wanted to do,
Which sports I play,
What school I went to,
Who I could and couldnt date.
My life just wasnt life,
I didnt live,
I couldnt.
I was the clone of some child to be.
Nobody ever asked for my opinion,
So I jumped.
My life flashed before my eyes.
And as I lay here I think of you,
How devastated you will be.
I love you dearly,
But life was too much.
So you see,
I had no choice,
I had to jump.
