The Battle

The battle has just begun

This cancer is pulling from me

Taking away who I am

Not enabling me to see

The battle has just begun

It's now live or die

Sometimes I want to give up

I just don't understand why

The battle has just begun

The chemo makes me feel weak

I don't know if I can do this

Where is the help that I seek?

The battle has just begun

And I don't feel very strong

But everyone says I am

And I wonder, could they be wrong?

The battle has just begun

I can't stand feeling oh so tired

I miss the way things used to be

When sometimes I would be wired

The battle has just begun

I just want to end this now

I don't know where to turn

And I sure don't know how...
