I WENT THROUGH A LOT IN MY LIFE WHERE I FELT LIKE I DIDN'T WANNA B HERE...
BUT GUESS WHAT I MAINTAINED...
YOU MAY HAVE HIT ME..AND KICKED ME..BUT GUESS WHAT IM STILL HERE..N I MAINTAIN..I KEPT MY COMPOSURE NOT TO KILL YOUR ASS
CAUSE U HURT ME SO BAD WHERE THE WHOLE FAMILY KNEW YOU WERE GRASS.
BUT A VOICE SPOKE TO ME AND
SAY..IS IT WORTH IT.
I TRIED TO PUSH THE VOICE OUTTA MY HEAD EVERY TIME.I WAS ON THE VERGE OF KILLING YOU...
BUT SOME HOW IT ENDED UP CATCHING UP WITH ME.
YOU HIT ME IN FRONT OF LOTS OF PEOPLE...LETTING YOU GOOD..BE RUINED BY YOUR EVIL.
YOU LET DRUGS TAKE CONTROL OVER YOU MIND.
THAT'S WHY OVER THE YEARS..YOUR
LOVE YOUR CHILDREN CAN NEVER FIND.U MAY HAVE CURSED ME HIT ME..AND EVEN INFLUENCED ME WITH UR STUPIDITY...BUT I ALWAYS
ENDED UP FINDING A WAY TO MAINTAIN.U HURT ME LET ME DOWN.HAD ME PICKING MY FACE UP OFF THE GROUND.
HAD ME SCARED TO THE POINT WHERE I WOULDN'T MAKE A SOUND..
CRAZY AND FUNNY NOW CAUSE I MAINTAINED.I NEVER LET YOU
SEE THE PAIN U INFLICTED ON ME
CAUSE THEN U JUST WOULD'VE KNOWN THAT U WON...
BUT I KNEW I COULDN'T GIVE YOU THAT MUCH AUTHORITY...
NO LIE IT HURTED.YOU LEFT ME HANGING BUT I MAINTAINED.
YOU TOOK MY MOM FROM ME..SHIT TOOK MY DIGNITY.BUT I BET I DIDN'T ALLOW YOU TO SEE THE HURT N ME...WHY BECAUSE I HAD T...O SHOW U THAT I CAN MAINTAIN.YOU THOUGHT
YOU HAD ME WRAPPED UP N UR MISERY.YES FOR A WHILE U DID.YOU SEE...
I WANTED TO SEE YOU GONE
SEE YOU DEAD..BUT ONCE AGAIN THAT VOICE CAME IN MY HEAD AND SAID..BABY GIRL HE'LL GET HIS ONE DAY.HE'LL HAVE TO MEET HEAVEN OR HELLS GATES...BUT AFTER ALL THE THINGS YOU DID TO ME....
MY NIGGA I MAINTAINED
