This Morning I Win
"Morning is here,
I know there is nothing to fear
About the day which will unfold before me,
I have seen it many times guaranteed
All surprises I will handle,
For I am a strong and independent damsel
For I have fought my own fights,
All of my life
I have never depended on anyone,
Or even tried to outrun
A problem or demand,
I have settled everything with my own hands
Which have never been tied,
Or compromised
Family has always been first,
Because roles were reversed
Circumstances required I step up,
Because behind me there was no back up
It is only me to challenge today,
And I will not let it betray,
Me, for what I need,
The vision and desire to succeed
So come on morning I am ready for you,
But be prepared, for you are gonna lose
For I am too strong to fail,
Having endured life’s travails
I can only win,
From my determination within.
