about

Have patience with each other, we all have different obstacles to overcome and all come from different places. You don't have to be a certain way just because of the family you were born into. Be better.

lyrics

Oh her dad would scream and shout
No one ever knew what about
And all of her days
She spent steps from her grave

she promised to never be like that man
using your fist and fear to make them understand
she packed up her things and ran she was only 18
she searched for a new life soon became a wife

she had kids of her own
she had a house and made a home
but little did she know
that man she'd become

they only wanted to know that they were loved
but they spent most of her time feeling alone
her hand hit hard her words cut deep to the bone
she only wanted to know she’d been loved

when we look close in the mirror
we ignore that beast we've become
try and treat our cancer
but our blood runs too deep

When her kids left home
and left her all alone
her insides swelled
When she knew what she had done

i pushed them away she screamed
i became that hateful man i promised not to be
she screamed and she shout oh god what have i done
i never wanted to hurt the ones i loved

when we look close in the mirror
we ignore that beast we've become
try and treat our cancer
but our blood runs too deep

this story sounds familiar and most can relate.
we're that woman. that beast. that fear. And that hate.
we all want to feel like we are loved.
life's too short to be someone we hate.
