I open my eyes and step into this world
Mom gives me this life and now I have to live it on my own
This scares me, because to me, everyone is wearing a mask
Reminiscing about the past, so this is how life continues on?
I smoke until my lungs become black
Just like the whole community, which is also black because it is surrounded by human hearts
I carry the Cross of fatalism
And I also desire power, paper and respect
I guess this is human nature
The Buddhists said trouble is just like the Buddha, but I couldn’t care less about it
I just wish I could go back to my mom
Mom, I’m sorry I always enrage you
You said you were regretful because you didn’t go for an abortion last time
Every time I come back from school and put that my heavy schoolbag
Nobody is at home, but I could still smell the fragrance of your perfume
Then only I know you have to work overtime again that night
I open the refrigerator and take out my cold dinner
Dad comes back at 2am, inebriated
I wake up only to find the both of you quarreling
I cannot concentrate on my exam the next day
The teachers don’t like me, and I don’t like them either
I hate wearing the uniform, and I hate the school rules
I hate my discipline teacher, and I hate to be restricted
That’s true
Many people dislike my attitude, they say I’m too cool
The police doesn’t like me as well, and they always try to capture me
I don’t give a f*ck about what people say
They can say whatever they want to say, but who are they?
Nobody has the right to evaluate me according to his/her standards
I’m the one in-charge of myself, I don’t care whatever people think about me
Women who love money will let men touch them
Those who don’t know how to use condoms, don’t complain that you have too many children
Although money is important, it cannot control life and death
When will the people be more lenient about life?
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
The strict atmosphere in the court is smothering me
When I am sentenced to life prison, I begin to realize my mistakes
Behind the bars, there will be a different life and view
I can’t see any peaceful vibe in the eyes of the prisoners
What is written is the situation in the prison
What is described in the diary isn’t the beautiful outdoor view
Freedom is what they have always wanted
They hide weapons by their pillow side in case somebody attacks them anytime
Some of them suspect that their wives are having an affair with other people now
Some of them keep the letters from their families well
Some of them sleep on the bed for 24 hours everyday
Some of them are having psychological problems because they can’t take it
The three-month’s wait flies by quickly
After I am discharged, I face three years’ temporary suspension
This is good, because I feel happy for the first time in my life
But is that the end of the challenge? I am not sure
I don’t know what else will happen next
When I read the newspapers I read about murders again
And I still remember the photo I found accidentally once
It was a picture of my aunt giving a b*****b to a man
This totally ruins her image in my heart
I can’t forget how horny her smile was in the picture
I fight the uneasiness and fear in my chest
I can’t stop hearing how my heart is roaring
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
No matter where I go
No matter where I go, I only see the fakeness of human’s hearts
It’s kinda funny that in the eyes of people, there is only money
It looks like they want to help you but actually they only want to help themselves
Behind the beautiful smiles who knows it is a heartless and ungrateful soul
They will even betray their friends just because of pride and power
When she says she loves you, it seems truthful and loyal
However, she could only love you because of your wealth
You will feel lost to determine whether the people around you are your friends or your enemies
Those who treat you horribly could be your best friends
When you are going through the times which you need help most
Those who used to be nice to you suddenly disappear
My dearest God
You can blame me for being too naïve but I am only human
I don’t believe in other people because they don’t believe in me as well
Don’t ask me why, I can only tell you that this is me
Life is just like the waves and tides, with the highs and lows
Have you told yourself that you have to be strong in going through all kinds of days?
I look out from the balcony of destiny but I can’t see the starry skies
Under the dark sky I don’t feel comfortable at all
In my heart, I can’t find a quiet corner
I can’t keep on sleeping anymore, my conscience is laughing at me
It says that my mother has been crying for me for days
My father only cares about himself; when I look at the flames of hope, I only see how it extinguishes
I pick up the phone and I heard Dad’s weak voice
Although I am not seeing him, it is not hard to imagine his expression
After I heard about how he lost his job
I immediately remember of what my grandmother told me to be useful
I have given up all the reasons to cry
Because I am already used to living in the cold, hard and cruel reality
How do we start our life? How do we start to change?
How are we able to live happily in a puddle of dirty mud?
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
Life’a struggle, but we still have to live on
After going through happiness, sadness and anger, there will be numerous troubles following behind
Everyday how many problems do we have to face?
How many nights of apprehension make you unable to sleep
Uh...life's a struggle
Yeah...life's a struggle

- This seems more like a rant than a poem, but it's beautiful nonetheless
