She never planned to end up just like her

A flashback picture that ends up in a blur

mistaking blackouts that always seem to occur

the vast of her breath smelling like liquor. 

She promised herself to follow the  right road

to not be the one to carry a large load

to not be known as a another zip code 

and not having her heart always being sewed. 

but she follows the pipe to the mother land 

and sells her love to another man

drunken offense as its hard to stand 

No one is there to hold her hand. 

she lives in the cold, as tears seems to fall

as two of her eggs still seem to crawl

she fights and fights because she can't bear it all

when she tries to run, she's hit by a wall. 

hair falling out, teeth white to black 

eye smashed in, skin torn and cracked

every night being robbed and attacked

this is her life gone off track. 

she promised her mother, but it was broken by 18

losing her virginity by the age  of 15

smoking her first joint at the age of 16

she said it was carried from her mother genes. 

but this is the interception of how life can be 

this was her life since the age of 3

when her mother was just a pound for free

as she was in the corner and always had to see.  

but now shes free, as she flies to kingdom come 

where everything she was feeling is all numb 

a place where she can sleep instead of run

an imprint of who she is under her right thumb. 

her mistakes are erased

her life is not a waste 

she is not a disgraced 

and she is saved where she's placed

Through a light she goes to the Promise Land 

and heals her heart by a loving man

a saving grace as for she can stand

as Jesus is there to hold her hand.
