The Overcoming

All i feel is pain and sorrow

What happened to the Jpys of tomorrow

All there is is hurt and pain

my tears, they flow like rain

Night and day i pray, hoping that God might show me the way

I used to cry and cry, asking God oh why

I'm trying to be a better me

Isn't that something tha's easy to see

I've learned to stop making excuses, there no good 

And only useless

I thank God for my sister who is my role model

Someone i can always follow

She loved and cared for me

and when it seemed like i had no one

She was  there for me

Irealize she has a lot on her plate, and sometimes i just have to wait

Sh's always telling me wrong from right

When it seems like there's nothng but darkness, she's my guiding light.

So thanks for staying true, and always being you

I feel all my anger melting away, and a s long as i have you Lord i can make it through another day

I know life has it's ups and downs

But ill keep my feet on solid ground

Lord thank you for my little brother, someone i can always count on

Who keeps me standing strong

I love him very much, and i realize his life is rough

He keeps me going and gives me hope for tomorrow

Thank you for my mom and dad, whose always there for me and makes me glad

I'm glad to call them my parents

Now i feel protected, never hurt, nor rejected

In them i know i can always trust

They'll have my back when life gets rough

I'll always keep my head up and never look down

I might be a role model for kids all around

And when they look at me, i want them to see

All the things that they can be

For the longest i felt as if i was going to explode

But ive finally dropped this heavy load

I'm starting to overcome

And confess my feelings, not run

So thanks for all you did

For this one little kid
