Fighter
You said I wouldn't make it,
You promised I would fail,
And when I did, you'd laugh at me.
You thought that I was frail.
You thought that you could break me,
Another life you could control.
But instead, you made me stronger,
Stronger than you'll ever know.
Despite the way you raised me,
I still came out on top.
I learned I had to fight for things,
And I will never stop.
