The strength that I have
Is something you’ll never see.
You’ll never know rock bottom.
You don’t know the highs like me.
And the courage that I hold within
Is a type of bravery
That doesn’t give in.
It’s a type of pain that could rip
The skin off your back
Pull your eyes from their roots
You just don’t know anger like that.
And the sadness that I know
Could make a shade seem bright
And keep you within so much darkness
You think you’ll never see the light.
It’s a type of humiliation
That could strip you in a room
Be the fingers pointing at your soul
And rape you of everything you own.
