I made it
Through the tears and heartbreaks
I made it
From those cold days and dark nights
I made it
From the abuse and fear
Those hungry, restless nights
I made it
No more running no more begging
No more fighting no more yelling
Because I made it
But I didn’t make It alone… no
I made because of you
You took me away from the abuse and fear
Of being alone, of not seeing tomorrow
That’s why I made it
I made it because you cared
Because you didn’t see a helpless little girl
Instead, a beautiful young lady with so much to offer
That’s why I made it
You brought me to a home filled with loving, caring people
That’s why I made it
You pushed me, encouraged me, helped me
You showed me how much the world has to offer
That I’m not alone, that there’s nothing to fear
That’s why I made it
I stand here with confidence and a huge smile on my face because of you
So thank you for being the reason why I am here
We made it
