Antidote

You don't belong there
not in that type of environment
it's a toxic environment
and the more you breathe in
the more infected you become
even your body aches
weakened by the damage done
from the stress of it all
no wonder you're always tired
but at least you're still beautiful
that is until your beauty begins to fade
and your eyes can no longer hide 
the fact that you're dying inside
how did you ever expect to thrive
when you're barely surviving now
it's because of your faith
that you've lasted this long
but now is the time 
to start believing in yourself
and be the antidote your body needs
you don't belong there
not in that type of environment
so give yourself a chance
to live a life free from toxicity
