I WILL SURVIVE (Lyric) by massangel62
your not the first to hurt me
i've been through many a pain
probably more than some people
can count on their one hand
I was molested as a child
and yes I was even raped
the kids at school teased me
and said I had an ugly face
one brother was arrested for murder
another in prison most of his life
my best friend was even killed
by her boyfriend who just went wild
I had been through a paternity suit
against the chief of police
my marriage was a breakdown
cause of abuse that went so deep
I had to take my son to court
to help him turn out right
twice I even got engaged
and they both got cancer and died
I had two brothers killed in accidents
separate years, but on the same day
three times I tried to kill myself
and I failed in every way
I had boyfriends who used me
friends and family have passed away
all my life i've struggled with depression
and I learned to live day to day
so yes sid, you did hurt me
and yes you made me cry
but I know I will go on
I am strong, I will survive.
