It was the year 2020



It was the year twenty-twenty, where the alive were few and the dead were plenty

what will be in the news next morning, there was no guarantee.

This rap is about how it was for me, did I fight the adversity or did I just flee


It started with the virus spreading, the rich and poor, all were dreading

Everything went online when I did not know much technology

at first I was fine but then it affected my psychology.

My family supported me, said it was gonna be easy, a tired mind and bad grades, it wasn't going breezy.

Dad said- 'Son don't be so worried' but I had fear and like a mouse I scurried.

He said, grades don't mean everything, you have such good talent,

You can still be successful if you forget that carbon's tetravalent.

Studying was hard and school was getting boring,

I got a school project to write blogs and found another way of scoring.

I wanted to help animals so I wrote for it, 'Opportunity in adversity' would be a good quote for it.

Everyone loved it and they recognized my potential

'Can I be a good writer?' Mom said my talent was substantial.

But things were still not the best, I had to score on the math test, I was not as good as the rest, I practiced and practiced, hard work was the key to the treasure chest.

Sitting all day at home, my physical standard went down, In karate, I wanted to be the best in town.

I started practicing and working out, I had to be worthy of my belt, I t was a tough route.

My body tried to stop me but the Karate uniform was my fashion, I fell down and got up holding the hand of my passion.

I worked real hard to submit every assignment on time, somewhere in the middle, I found time to rhyme.

Having the hope inside me, one day will be my time, I will become a great writer,

that priority was prime.

I had raging thoughts inside me, like the ocean waves

I started thinking, what the public reads, what it craves.

I started my own blog, to free my mind's clots,

My Sister told me- Name it 'Ocean of thoughts'.

Sometimes the views are fifty and sometimes they are four, I love writing so I do it more and more.

In the midst of chaos I found my way, Understood there were a lot of options in life's tray.

It was the year 2020 when I was fed up and wanted to scream

It was the year 2020 when I found a new dream.
