she never got to experience her innocence
it was snatched from her
she never got the chance to live
her life was already given to her

she never got to hug the one she loved
a little girl she tried to protect
she never felt loves Bliss but only in books
Cause she was paralyzed and scared place

she talks about the past because it was her reality
wearing baggy clothes to hide the silhouette of your body
makeup to hide the scars and tears
baby girl never let those tears fall you are a soldier

she thinks she will never get the chance to say
those precious words I do
but somehow she knows she will be
the strongest girl she has ever knew

she'll brush your hair a million times
put make up on her face just to see something beautiful
she cant hold back the tears when she is by herself
or even give herself a warm embrace
she felt dirty like trash throwing away

she didn't like who she was
will she ever be enough
as she tried to pray the prayers enough is enough
she couldn't understand why she went through that stuff
why she would never Mount up and be enough

she never show the pain that was deep inside
or even the pain in her eyes
she will never let you know the nightmares she has a night
or why her body still goes through the shivers in the daylight

you never know what journey she's on
cuz her smile will tell you a lie
she will never look for sympathy or pity
because now she knows she's enough
she tells herself all the time
you the strongest girl that I ever had in mind
