Look at me; look at me 

I'm changing; I'll do better than I am

I'm changing; I'll do better than I am

I am who I never thought I am

Mercy Walks Alone

 

Look at me; look at me

I am changing; I'll be better than I am

I am changing; I'm going to start right now at this moment

But I need, I need you 

Mercy Walks Alone

 

Look at me; look at me

I am changing; trying everything I can

I am changing; I'll be who I want to  be

I am changing; trying to see everything clearly

I am changing; trying to understand and being able to overcome

Mercy Walks Alone

 

Look  at me; look at me

I am getting there; it will work out this time

I am going to start all over again; to find a way to understand

I will appear as I want; nothing won't stop me

The author's comments:

My sister is currently incarcerated in a program for girls. And every now and then I would write her some inspirational piece and this was one of them to keep her motivated. Every morning she wakes up, and she tells me, she looks at it before she comes out the room she's in.
