My life in a can

Through all the cards I've been dealt, and all the pain I felt


I felt like I was just a shame


Truth is I just got thrown in the game


There was all those times I felt like dying

Then I looked back, and momma was just a crying

But I need to set my sights to the sky, and keep on giving it a try


Even through this pain
I still have stuff to gain

Sometimes I feel I'm trapped in a cell
Right before they lead me to the gates of hell

I always have myself to bail me out

To continue my trip stop on the next route

All the times I moved place to place

I am still trying to figure if it's my mom's disgrace

Being taken away from kin

Has got me thinking what could have been

There is one thing thing that has changed my life around

That hasn't hurt me or put me down


There is so many things that this person can do

If I follow his commands
It's as easy as one and two
Sometimes I'm weak in my foundation of belief
But when I have faith in him it's a relief
A relief, A relief that gives me inner peace.
