Today is that day when people abandon you
Things aren’t going your way
Your family is on your nerves
Your friends doubt you
Your loved ones think you’re a fool
You trust those and they embarrass you
No one takes you seriously
They look away from when you’re nobody
You trust your instincts, only to be led the wrong way
You hate to hear them say, “I told you so”
Especially from an old foe
Maybe tonight you’ll cut your losses
Forget about what happened today
Just sleep it off and tomorrow you’ll have a better day.
Despite all this, you haven’t accept defeat
Now the tables have turned
It’s time to stand on your feet
First, forgive in your heart, and never forget what you’ve learned
Because one day, you’ll prove that you’re right
Then one day, you’ll win that fight
A battle so long and so tired
From the darkest hour comes light
One day, you’ll be the hero
And that old foe will be the zero
Then others will take you seriously
And that’s when you’re a somebody
But to achieve victory, you must live through defeat.
