For all my life
I always told my mother
That i would find the perfect partner
Like him, there would be no otherGrowing up
I always told my dad
That i would make him proud
And that my future won't be badI always told my friends
That when things get hard
We need stick by each other
So we won't feel like we are stuck in the darkEvery time I prayed to God
I always said
I want no one to suffer
When I'm declared deadWhen people told me i couldn't
And when they brought me down too
I always told them that in life
There's nothing i can't doWhen people judged me
For being the person i am
I always explained
That God loved me for who i amSo when someones wants to bring you down
Tell them the words you always said
Because the words you say
Can stay stuck in their head
