Strength
It's all I have left,
Well not all,
I have you, Matt, and Chris.
1:00 a.m., wake up, cop's knock,
Now what do they want?,
Mom lets them in, fake asleep,
"There's an outstanding warrant for you arrest",
"I'm sorry, but you're gonna have to come with us",
"DFACS will take her into their custody".
Noooo!!!! You can't!!!!!!!!!
I know it's been four years but I just got her back,
She cares about me right?
Apparently not.
"I can't do it",I mouth to you,
"YES YOU CAN!!!",you mouth back,
How can I? Nobody cares!!!
Actually, yes, some do.
You do, Matt does, and so does Chris,
Your parents, church family, and God,
So what if my parents don't, I've got y'all.
It's hard,
Yes, I can do it.
I'm going to stumble, I'll fall,
But I will get back up,
And I NEVER WILL GIVE UP!!!!!
You give me courage,
Courage to keep moving,
You give me strength,
Strength to never give up.
You're my best friend,
Someone I can greatly depend,
You've been there with me,
And you always will be.
This time,
I mouth to you "YES I CAN"
And this time you mouth back,
"Of course you will".
"You never know how strong you are until being strong is all you've got left."-Unknown
"That which does not kill me makes me stronger."-Unknown
Thank you Bri,
I owe you big time. :)
