There was a time in my life
When I thought I wouldn’t make it
I was taken from my mother
So much hurt I couldn’t take it
Give up, never gonna make it
Voices in my head was tellin’ me
but I didn’t give up
I tried to push through the agony
I’ve been through a lot of hurt
So in life it’s hard to be happy
It’s a blessin’ I know
At two years old
I was taken into a family
And adopted at four
But I was thinkin’ in my head
How could you love me when my real one don’t love me anymore
But I had to wake up
Face reality as it is
It’s a shame I was thinkin’ all these things as a kid
And all you kids talking ’bout my life is bad
Be grateful you know your mom
Be grateful you know your dad
And stop all that complaining
And be grateful for what you have
See I’m so glad God gave me a family who truly cares
He opened up my eyes to show that someone’s there
