I Am

Location

I am the young girl who's boyfriend's condom popped

I am the girl who fell victim to the man who didn't heed her please stop

I am the boy who was forgotten in the shop

I am the boy who didn't see that stop

 

Sign where my alter ego stood on the corner and was hit 

but brought back as an angel on my shoulder 

preaching to me 

the past isn't my present

and my present isn't my future

 

I am that spiritually uplifted woman who's kids don't wanna come to church

I am that crackhead looking for redemption

I am that college student wondering how I'm gonna pay off this debt

I am that prostitute who'sonly in it to feed her two year old daughter

I am that beaten teenager who fears this will be....

 

The end  of a chapter in time

Faced with the hardship of my day to day life 

wondering when i am going to beable to get a break

Broken into pieces not able to stand up and say this is it

 

But really WHO am I 

Am i the one who doesn't know her path

Am i the one that was taken out of that situation

Or am I me the one who doesn't have a title in life because its not over

IN THE END I AM MY MOTHER'S CHILD 

OUT OF THE WOMB THAT BROUGHT ANOTHER VESSEL OF HOPE INTO THIS WORLD

THATS WHO I AM!
