Mommy's Perfect Little Girl

Forgive me sweet girl for putting you through hell 
For the times you were crying as I went off to jail 
Did I even love you? How could you tell?
Forgive me sweet girl for putting you second to dope 
I left you no choice but to learn how to cope 
Where did you find so much love and such hope?
Forgive me sweet girl for living life full of sin 
As I battled addiction I let you watch addiction win 
Why'd I make the same mistakes again and again?
Forgive me sweet girl for the tears and the pain
You were always my sunshine; I was always your rain
What was my problem? Was I going insane?
Forgive me sweet girl for destroying your world 
For not holding you tight like a clam holds a pearl 
One thing is certain you've always remained mommy's perfect little girl

Feel The Way You Feel

They say when you look you're not supposed to judge 
They tell you when you're mad not to hold a grudge 
When things don't go as planned keep a level head 
Don't get worked up over something someone said 
There's no need to cry wipe away those tears 
Pick yourself up and face all of your fears 
You'll never fly with your feet on the ground 
Until you've been lost you'll never be found 
You have every right to feel the way you feel 
You have to feel the pain before you can heal

Loved You Just The Same

For years you made me wish that I had never told
I didn't think your reaction would be so cold
I had been trying to tell you for so so long
Then I felt that by telling I had done something wrong 
It was never my plan to cause you any pain
The things dad would do was driving me insane
I never dreamed that telling would just make things worse
I decided it was me I must be the curse
My once loving mother now looked at me with hate
I was destined to live in hell that was my fate
Even though you thought I was the one to blame
I hope you know I always loved you just the same

Kill Them With Kindness

Do unto others as you'd have others do unto you 
Many people speak it but seldom ever see it through 
Not taking time to consider another point of view 
The world that we live in is becoming derange 
Things that once seemed taboo are no longer stranger 
It's time everyone started working toward making a change 
Praise and remember our creator the good Lord above 
When you're sick and tired of being pushed and push comes to shove
Kill them with kindness and wrap the enemy in your love

Life's Corridor

As we go through life we open door after door
No matter what they reveal we keep wanting more
Some doors fill us with happiness down to our core
Some doors can cause pain and knock us flat on the floor
Until they're open we never know what's in store
Yet we keep going through cause we're all keeping score
Some doors make us rich some doors leave us poor
Sometimes they even leave us hurt broken and tore
So be careful as you go through life's corridor

Trying My Best

Some days are really hard and they put me to the test
It takes everything in me to get up and get dressed
Instead of living life I just drag through the day
My body is present but my mind slips away
Everywhere I go I feel like an unwanted guest 
I let my mind forget that I am truly blessed
I feel as if my life is in complete disarray 
All I know to do is to go isolate and pray
My mind is always wondering it never gets to rest
I'll take it day by day and I'll keep on trying my best

Enough Is Enough

Time creeps by so slowly yet it speeds by so fast
I'm left remembering and regretting my past 
Still I find myself waiting and wishing for tomorrow 
Praying that with it I can forget all of my sorrow 
Hoping that yesterday's will be my last mistake 
So I don't cause my loved ones anymore heartache 
I've made my life complicated I've caused times to be rough
I finally decided enough is enough 
I vow never to waste another moment high
To my lifelong addiction I'm saying goodbye

God's Grace

I've spent my entire life wasting away in sin 
Every single day I was letting the devil win 
I wish I could've seen past his dirty evil grin 
Some days I would pray to God to please just let me die 
Most days I didn't pray cause all I could do was cry 
The devil had me hooked telling me lie after lie 
In the end I was nothing without an ounce of pride 
There was nowhere to run there was nowhere left to hide
When I began to pray God came and stood by my side 
Finally when I stared the devil straight in the face
God took me by the hand and we put him in his place 
Anything is possible with the help of God's Grace

Bob

As soon as your pain ended mine just began
God called your name so you turned around and ran
I never wanted to believe that soon you would leave
Now you're an angel I have to face reality
You left me hurt and broken deep in despair 
You left me way too soon life is so unfair
Without you I am lost I don't know where to turn
Oh how I miss you so for your touch I yearn
Everytime I think of you my heart begins to throb
No one will ever replace my one and only Bob
I know in my heart one day I'll see you again 
That's when our everlasting journey will begin
