Will I ever be strong enough

They say I'm so happy, they cry about their stuff
But every word of theirs affects me
Will I ever be strong enough?

I always apologize, even when they are wrong
Because if I argue, they'll leave me alone

It's funny, because, I've got an opinion
But with them, I keep shut
Afraid their 'forever' might turn out to be a bluff
Will I ever be strong enough?

They hurt me and i said sorry
Because what if I stood up, and they left?
Will I be strong enough
To let go of them yet?

I don't complain to them, I listen to theirs
No one's there to listen to mine, I'm trying to be tough
But will i ever be strong enough?

They broke me, I put myself back together
They demotivated me, and so many young dreams i gave up

They think only they can hurt, they think only they are right
But everyday, there are battles i fight
I take away your burden momentarily, but who'll make my shoulders feel light?
I keep on thinking,
Will I ever be strong enough?, every night

I get attached easily, get tied up in cuffs
They treated me harshly, and I found reasons to support their injust
God, will i ever be strong enough?

I am strong, I'm still here, 
Though life was rough
But will i ever be strong enough?
