My own talents of who I am,
I was already born with so much insight
into how I would want to live my life-
in a world that isn't very nice,
Oh, how I have truly pay the price.

I remember too how he would tell me
Look deep into my eyes and tell me what will I do next?
I could truly see your investments are to stalk
me and to play hateful games on my mind
to bring down my life.

Oh, how you even wished me dead,
I could tell you about to lose your heads,
you don't understand who I am
and the strength of me
You just want to see me bleed.

I thank my God for all that he has given to me,
Because if I didn't have this knowledge
of what is right for insight
I would have already fallen
in this world of darkness-
Because living life among the envy eyes isn't very nice,
even if it was in silences.
