I could be your biggest accomplishment, I could be your biggest dream I could be the source of pain that your eyes deceive I could love you one day Maybe I could just leave Because seeing you like that right there made me cause a scene. I am hard to love It's written in my seams Little things that you can't see Because deep down I'm redeemed Little as a child, I had no company All to my lonesome, I could barely breathe Living since that day it's really hard to believe Mostly because the pain he caused, it killed me slowly. Marking all the food so we really had nothing to eat I cried myself to sleep every night, ooh he was so mean. No doubt I'm going to see his face again and tears will probably burst in eye. But I will always remember what my momma told me “Baby Don't Let Him See You Cry” Power is what he held Power to my soul A remote to all my feelings I really had no control He tortured me He made me think about life right before death crying every night Like I had not a single person left. But I am alive, believe it or not. Soul is dead to the world I got a lot of humor but not to fill this post This is about dark ends Darkness is where it leads I'm stronger than I was I can finally breathe Yes, it's pretty scary to read what I just wrote But deep inside I hurt, But writing this for all to see, It really was a cure.
