Hapless

I pray to god with my heart all day
hoping someday, me, he will bless
but I think he has some other plans
because even after I bow, I am still hapless

I was told by people around me
that I deserve all, I should not ask for nothing less
I tell them, for a person with nothing
less is everything and now you see that I am hapless

I try so hard to hold it all together
but somehow everything turns to a mess
no matter how much I make an effort
in getting something I want, I am just hapless

from the day I was born I was told
to embrace everything and to everything say Yes
but everytime, to something, I said yes
for some reasons it was turn down and I was left hapless

everything I did was with a smile and confidence
never once I embarked on a journey with a guess
all that confidence, all that smile
is fading away as time makes me more and more hapless
