i smile
i smile,
though the pain is unbearable
i smile,
to make the days bearable
i smile
because it's good for me
since i can choose my mood,
i choose to be merry
even if things are not so good
all for the sake of my mind,
i flee from stress
putting it at the back of my mind,
i focus on success
life got hard, but
i chose to harden my shell
but it's hard to tell
by looking at me
i stay calm,
because panicking won't repel
what i'm going through
that's what the strong do:
they cope well
