Even when things seem to be perfect,
Even when someone seems to have the perfect life,
Even there, there is no perfection.
I was always good at school,
I had good and caring parents,
I didn't have money troubles,
Yet, I had so many problems.
My dad, my grandpa, my grandma, my aunt.
But nobody cared, they always thought that it was perfect.
They were jealous of my they-thought-perfection,
But they didn't know what there was behind it,
They didn't know the hard times spent on books,
The hours my parents spent with me to make me feel loved.
When people look at you in anger
Because they don't know what's behind you.
Most of times, to become someone,
You have to know some important people.
If not, they notice your efforts
The important ones' children come first.
But you can't stop trying, or they'll win.
I fought, I didn't let them bring me down.
I studied a lot, even if there was that person better than me.
It had to be, or my life would've been meaningless.
But it isn't easy, you know,
It isn't easy trying and trying
And seeing that just a step before the victory
There comes the important child
Who didn't fight as hard as you.
Then, as a cherry on the cake,
I don't know how I managed
Keeping walking, breathing, living.
I don't know where did I find the strength.
The world suddenly stopped,
Or it kept going on but I stopped.
Something broke inside of me, everywhere.
Then I realized that everything had no importance.
Let them give the prize to who ever they wanted,
Let them think whatever they wanted,
Let them look at you and don't understand the emptiness in your eyes.
Nothing mattered anymore.
What a futile fight had been.
It wasn't easy, you know,
Is wasn't easy changing in one morning,
It wasn't easy seeing your normal world not being normal anymore.
You stand up, stronger than ever
'Cause otherwise you fall forever.
One day someone will notice your efforts,
They will recognize your strength
And your passion and your intelligence.
'Cause you're smart and strong,
You are loved and life is a wheel,
All the good and the study you did
And you will find your place
Where everybody sees your potential.
It won't be easy, you know,
'Cause there will always be the important one's child
Always one step in front of you.
But you keep going, on and on,
'Cause if you quit, you lose everything.
With all this misunderstanding people,
Selfish people, corrupted people,
But this is your life, you can't throw it away.
One day, it all will make sense,
Even if you know it isn't easy.
