I’ve been through pain
And I’ve been ashamed
But I won’t let that hold me back
Words have severely beaten me
Like a rusty hammer to a tender knee
But I won’t let that hold me back
I have screamed and I have cried
Just like there were little bits of grainy sand in my eyes
But I won’t let that hold me back
I’ve looked into the foggy mirror
Thinking that life could not get even a little clearer
But I won’t let that hold me back
I’ve had a broken heart
And friends who have grown apart
But still
I won’t let that hold me back
