Meaningless Slavery

How long will you make me wait?

Is our future together really not our fate?

Everyday, I wander and get lost in the wilderness,

Hating myself for ever desiring happiness.

-

The system of this world is so hard to live in!

My will to live is definitely wearing thin.

I'm bleeding inside from all the years of efforts and trying.

I just want a life that's simple, stable and self-sustaining.

-

I toil away with responsibilities for a family I didn't ask for.

Being there and helping out feels like a damn chore.

I'm in this cycle of unbreakable prison.

What am I supposed to gain from this seemingly endless season?

-

When will it be my time for success, a time to shine?

When I can genuinely say and feel like I'm doing fine.

I downgrade my goals just to make them achievable.

But they still feel like light - years unreachable.

-

But I have been a complete fool.

Have I really become money's tool?

I cannot have these beyond the grave!

I wish I could honor you with the blessings that you gave.

-

Why am I so anxious for tomorrow?

My heart's desires only lead me to sorrow.

Set me free from this meaningless slavery.

Help me manage my perspective and imagery.
