My plate is empty

My plate is empty

Tried so many things

I worked hard, mentally

Never got anything on a plate

Some people get more luck

My plate is empty

Maybe I should give up

Live in welfare

My plate is empty

I’m plain and have no glamour

Thought I was fine in what I do

No one wants to give me a chance

My plate is empty

But I’m strong and I can get over it

It’s not a big deal

I find joy in small things

My plate is empty

Don’t worry, I will get by somehow
