I walk by my mother every day
And put a smile on my face
Nothings going to change
I keep reminding myself
Each and Every day
That this is my life
And that is never going to change
How can a person smile after all they have suffered?
I keep asking myself that each time I'm with her..
But how did my life change after all I have suffered
Well hear me out today I'll tell you what I'm after
I put a smile on my face
After each time she hit me
Because I dream of a place
That she can't even touch me
How did I do it, It must been something hard?
I just smile, close my eyes, dream of a place that will seem very far
This is how I suvive the abuse, each and evey hit
To this day my wounds never healed
I'm still crying for this
I Walk With A Smile
Because I'm about to go
I Walk With A Smile
So my emotions show
That deep inside I'm still hurting
From abuse that hit me
You said I couldn't prove it
Well my sisters was with me
Each and Every hand that you ever laid
Each and Every emotion that you say
Will aways be in my head in each and every way
So this is how I suvived by putting a smile on my face
Because things are about to change....
