Past Ever Last

Alone in this world fallowed by some random girl
that girl in the past was me
I try to run but she's always there
Just google our name and see

I can not help the things I've done
I promise you it was not fun

the hurt I've caused to those I've loved
and how I've hurt myself
I've stolen lied and often cried
inside I feel I may have died
and im only 20 now

I've worked real hard for things to change
new job new home and a life that's lame
then someone talks and again you see my shame

forever I will live with the misguided actions 
of a young girl is so much pain
you see at from 9 my life was not fine
hooked on drugs by a brother I loved

tragedy only grew
if only I knew
the pain that was to brew

father saw only me to blame

10 years of street life
a back ally pimp saw some gain
he brought me out of the rain

tried selling me to a cop 
then pop pop pop
my life was now in chains

still a virgin
jailed for prostitution
sentenced to a life of shame.

now here I am
rejected by family
rejected by work
rejected by love
all because of who I was.

Baby

how could it be
is there really
someone inside of me?

im so happy 
im so scared
will its life be so fair

I tell everyone
reactions all the same
no congrats just blame.

its so beautiful
I don't under stand
am I the reason why
the reactions are so bland

as if I don't know
how hard this job will be
why can't anyone 
be happy for brian and me?

they tell me to be scared
tell me to feel shame
tell me raising a child
isn't just a game

I know I say 100 times
to those I thought would cheer
not like the baby wasn't planned
why is there no love here

no grandma knitting clothes
no grandpa building swings
only mommy and daddy
doing baby things
