I’ve had enough! It’s no one’s fault but my own! My lack of discipline has been shown!
I don’t feel like that justifies my ignorance, however. I can’t live like this forever!
Mistake after mistake, how many dumb decisions can one person make?!
To that, there is no right answer, mistakes are just a cancer.
Most are treatable, though; it depends on how far you’re willing to go?!
Can you push yourself past that limit? That moment when you think there is no way to win it!?
I know I can, I have before, even after people had hope for me no more!
So I’ll get past this as well, even if in pain I must dwell.
I know afterward, I will reap my reward, of this I am assured!
I’m going to overcome every lousy decision; this is my mission, and my mission I will stand by. I will not fail, I’d rather die…
