The darkest night of the soul

I put on this face for too long Who is this girl I'm looking in the mirror all bare-faced Who is this girl I have changed my ways and values to play the part Who is this girl I look deep inside I see a green spark Who is this girl It's getting bright I'm losing sight, and the pain is letting go Who is this girl Yeah, Who is this girl I'm a pro of the hustle. These streets are only for the bold Who is this girl I walk a fine line but stay in my lane Who is this girl I'll look past it all and take what mine Who is this girl I don't need anyone, says the fool alone. Who is this girl I'm screaming inside. It's the best place to hide. Who is this girl My facade takes it all. I don't even care. Who is this girl? I'm pleasing you but neglecting myself Who is this girl Down the vicious path of desperate choices in this wretched world Who is this girl? I see a green spark Who is this girl? It's getting bright I'm losing sight, and the pain is letting go Who is this girl Yeah, Who is this girl Up and the roll coaster of life Man, I'd do anything to be a wife. But choices were naive I'm still blessed I conceived There was no one to save me Don't get me wrong I had beautiful experiences But. Who is this girl? Who was that girl? It's getting bright I'm losing sight, and the pain is letting go Who was that girl Walking at my heart space. And I'm not making any apologies I was that girl Yeah, Who was that girl? I was that girl. The following is a lyric song facing dark shadows to alchemize in truth. I pray for you to maintain your faith.
