Last Stop

Things don't always go your way
and no one knows that better than you
it makes you wonder what you're doing wrong
even if you haven't done anything wrong
yet there's still a part of you that wonders
what you can do to make it work in your favor
because you're tired of feeling like this
undeserving of any of your own blessings
as if somehow you've failed 
but you haven't failed at all
there's a lesson to be learned here
while things don't always go your way
it doesn't always signify failure on your part
maybe you put too much pressure on yourself
and that's why it hasn't worked out so well
but that doesn't mean you stop trying
so what if it's not how you want to get there
if you're going in the direction you need to go
at least you can say you're still on your way
you can be mad at how it takes you
just know that it's not your last stop
things don't always go your way
but you should find out which way they go
so you can see them through
