Growing pains

It's been a really hard week
That I thought that I couldn't complete. 
Through the highs and through the lows
I still hold on, you know?
One moment up and one moment down
I just go all over around. 
I wanted to give up.
I said I've had enough!
Of this ups and downs 
And going all around 
Again and again
Like an endless chain.
When is it gonna break? 
It will ever break? 
Or is it going again 
And again and again... 
I sighed then I took a breath
And I tried to understand 
That everytime I'm learning something
Everytime a brand new thing
Comes to life because of pain
Like a flower needs the rain. 
I learned some new things
That brings me to be
More closer to the real me. 
So thank you God for the bad days
They taught me to keep the faith
In You no matter what happens in my life
I know you will always be by my side.
