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.
