I'll Overcome


You, My First Love,

When We Met, It Was Like A Message From Above,

Now You've Left, And With You, 

You Took My Heart, Innocent Theft,

You Want To Be Friends

Yet We Know That The Damage Is Done,

And Now My Heart Weighs A Ton.

Thank You, For Breaking Me, 

All This Has Set Me Free.

I Now Arise and Determination Is The Key,

To Prove You Wrong,

And Show You What I'm Meant To Become
