Sometimes I feel tiny

Sometimes I feel small.

and then I remember I shine.

i am a QUEEN and so are you

we shine.

they’ve broken me

more than once

do you remember how much you cried as a kid?

not really

seems like anger and frustration

lock the door after they leave

to make sure you cannot look back on the pain

nobody can break me anymore

the hurt the pain

sometimes i just want to numb the pain

and then i don’t

because i know it goes away quicker if i do the right things

and then i see me

the real me

see how i was sat into this world

into this time

into this line

into this system

making the wrong choices

and the right

and how i fight

for survival

fight for my right to live

and suddenly i realise

all i need to do is give

whatever is supposed to stay in my life will

and even though i’d kill

for him look to at me like that one more time

i stay still

because i know my time

will come

and with patience

i can help the nations

help myself first

before another gets to be part of my thirst

my thirst for life

and to do it right

because there’s only

one chance

at this beautiful life.
