I'm Enough?


I'd be lying if I said there is nothing I'd ever want Can't hide this frustration, it's talent is to haunt Here are some things I will never ever get No matter how hard I try, life won't ever let We only have each other But still somehow the arguments find us mother I'll never be a perfect daughter Not in any way to disrespect our father I can't understand any of what the elders say Grandmother, understand its not my fault please stay We were never ever mean But Auntie, who are those other nieces on your home screen? College who the heck are you? You really the light and savior to make my life come tru? Friends, I'm not ever perfect I go through hell and back with you, cause that's just what I do Sisters at being a role model I'm not the best But I'll always be here cause life's the hardest test These are the things I'd prefer But in the end life's a blur
