A Survivor`


I've lived and learned down different paths

I've been through losses, and the poverty of man

Charging a negative with a positive, always stand tall

We all have that "sad man" inside us all

Putting things to the back of my head

Trying to hold it all in

It all gotta come out sometime 

Let it out to those who've been always been by your side

Reminiscing on those we lost

But never let it get to the best of us, got to give it all we got

I'm always putting a smile on my face

Trying to win "life" this thing that we call a race 

Never let the downs get the best of me

Family and friends is always my main key
