[Intro]
This is a message to survivors who keep on struggling,just want you to know that you're not alone
We got you,hope your dreams come true
[Verse 1]
I used to believe that I was loved
They loved the idea that I could provide for the table
Seeking help up from above
From their mistakes they held me accountable
Took my diary,wrote the very first words
Who held me from not getting worse
I took my own matter on my own hands
It's just me putting down all scams
I will get on my own feet and keep on surviving
[Chorus]
This is my story,my pain and my life
Their words piercing my soul like a knife
I will stand for myself and survive
I'll let my pain turned to motivation go overdrive
[Verse 2]
Parents don't like me taking my independence
They fear the thought of me cutting off my expense
When the cat comes,mice won't ever dance
Pops growled " Who do you think you are ? We raised you,This is how you repay us by cutting us off ? We're family,family support each other"
" Family doesn't allow parents draining money out of their own children to repay your own debts" I replied camly
They wanted to slap me and couldn't do it they knew deep down I was right
Family betrayal,relationship betrayals...I'm out
[Chorus]
This is my story,my pain and my life
Their words piercing my soul like a knife
I will stand for myself and survive
I'll let my pain turned to motivation go overdrive
[Verse 3]
I'm out living my life to the fullest
Life is hard at first but I still managed to get by
Paying off the bills,saving up,got a very long list
To all worries and negativity gotta say bye bye
Hearing that I'm doing great,they tried to reconnect
No more grudge holding I block them off the bat
Hoped they hold knife under my neck
They walked away realising that I cut them off my life that's a fact
Time to live my life,no more pain,just me being happy
[Chorus]
This is my story,my pain and my life
Their words piercing my soul like a knife
I will stand for myself and survive
I'll let my pain turned to motivation go overdrive

[Outro]
To all who keep on struggling,building their own empire from scratch,you ain't alone and God bless you all
