This Is For Today

This is for today 
Today I love my children 
Today they both breath 

This is for today 
Today I am alone 
Today I breath 

This is for today 
Today I saw you both
Today you both breath 

This is for today 
Today I love myself 
Today the earth breathes 

This is for today 
Because at the end of the day
I only have me 
I cant go down again 
I cant lose my dignity to people like you 
To the people who refuse to stop 
Using the word karma is just an excuse for you to treat people this way 
I may behave crazy sometimes 
My crazy behavior stops when it's time 
It's time to stop you 
Hurts more to know there isn't a soul around who wants to be around me 
Being alone since childhood, it's no different today then it was yesterday 
Just for today I will keep myself up
This is for today
