I Can Only Do My Best

Things on mind...
I am in a world full of judgment,
People think they know me,
They think they know what they are talking about,
I can do my best but it might not be enough for you.

I try my best for you,
But I don't feel free,
I feel locked inside a cage,
Like an animal wanting to get out,
I can only do my best.

There are so many people to impress,
My family expects high of me,
I know they want me to do my best,
Even if I'm not at my best I seem happy.

I don't like letting people down,
That's why I feel trapped,
I can only do my best.
