Married To The Game: A Gangsta Love Story

Chapter 5: Warrior

This is a story that I have never told,

I gotta get this off my chest to let it go,

I need to take back the light inside you stole

You're a criminal,

And you steal like you're a pro

All the pain and the truth

I wear like a battle wound

So ashamed, so confused

I was broken and bruised,

Now I'm a warrior,

Now I've got thicker skin,

I'm a warrior

I'm stronger than I've ever been

And my armor, is made of steel, you can't get in

I'm a warrior

And you can never hurt me again,

Out of the ashes, I'm burning like a fire

You can save your apologies, you're nothing but a liar

I've got shame, I've got scars

That I will never show

I'm a survivor

In more ways than you know,

Cause all the pain and the truth

I wear like a battle wound

So ashamed, so confused

I'm not broken or bruised,

'Cause now I'm a warrior

Now I've got thicker skin

I'm a warrior

I'm stronger than I've ever been

And my armor, is made of steel, you can't get in

I'm a warrior

And you can never hurt me

There's a part of me I can't get back

A little girl grew up too fast

All it took was once, I'll never be the same

Now I'm taking back my life today

Nothing left that you can say

Cause you were never gonna take the blame anyway

Now I'm a warrior

I've got thicker skin

I'm a warrior

I'm stronger than I've ever been

And my armor, is made of steel, you can't get in

I'm a warrior

Paige's POV

I Told my sis that I would be right back, I went upstairs to Trey and I room. I turned on Demi Lovato's song Warrior on full blast, I began to undress and look at myself in full length body mirror and began to cry at the markings on my body. I began to think back to the abuse that I endured at the hands of my foster mother and father when my sister and I got separated and no one knows not even trey. I tried to dry my tears and walk in our master bathroom and turned on the shower and started to wash myself under the steaming hot water. I then began to cry again and agin, until eventually I was in a ball on the floor rocking back n forth. I fell asleep under the water unknowingly.
