Only God Knows

[Female speaking] This is for the single mothers out there. It takes a hell of a woman raising kids,work full-time and playing both roles. But with the strength of God, we do the damn thing. Only God Knows the struggle we deal with every day.

Tears on the counter, bills on the floor,

Chasing dreams while the wolf’s at the door.

Babies crying, heart heavy, spine steel,

Broken but I bend, grind 'til I heal.

Staring at the mirror, cracked in its frame,

She strong but she tired, ain't playing no game.

Only God knows, only God sees,

The weight on my back, I drop to my knees.

Praying through the storm, praying through the pain,

Still smiling for my babies, walking through the rain.

Mental battles, scars deep as the sea,

They don’t see the war, they just see the strong me

Work clock ticking, dreams on delay,

Still I rise, still I fight, every single damn day.

Heartbreak knocking, but I locked the gate,

Turned that love to lessons, made peace with fate.

Outlaw in the system, but a queen in my home,

Built my empire from the dust and the stone.

Only God knows, only God sees,

The weight on my back, I drop to my knees.

Praying through the storm, praying through the pain,

Still smiling for my babies, walking through the rain.

Bruised hands, calloused soul,

But this fire don’t fold.

One smile from my kids, that’s my gold,

Carrying the future, though the nights stay cold.

Only God knows, only God sees,

The weight on my back, I drop to my knees.

Praying through the storm, praying through the pain,

Still smiling for my babies, walking through the rain.

[female speaking] You got this Queen
