Stronger with every stride

Focused and healed the damage parts of me
not concern about how it use to be
long over due to love me for this change
now thought to be out everyone's range
trusted my intuition walk in truth
debunking lies throughout my years of youth
still standing although they wanted me dead
every chance they see me rips minds to shred
got up every fight only left bruised
surprised by my strength looking so confused
as a adult its been the same game right
new people no running no fight no flight
there's no need to announce my protection
its handled many facing conviction
loving myself shouldn't caused this much trouble
perfecting my gifts living in my bubble
