Why do we seek acceptance in everything we do?
Sometimes I wonder if we even have a clue
We go from day to day just getting by
Living out our day throughout our own lies
Sometimes we reflect, a little too much
Sometimes we don’t, how much is enough?
Is it really acceptance that we seek?
Is it really self doubt that creeps?
But our biggest fear in all of this
The worst fact, that mustn’t be missed
We fear rejection above all else
It hits us hard, our mental health
Until we can’t go on, it eats us alive
Because with self doubt, we can never thrive
