Whatever you say

Whatever you say
You think you know me
because I tell you things
Walk in my shoes
See if you feel the same
I've been here, there scared
to go anywhere but I'm still doing me
so whatever

You talk about me and have
the nerve to get mad cause' I spit
the truth,
then you judge me only on what I have told you

You said I think I'm all that
and conceded
NO you think I'm all that and you
are the one conceded about me

You watch every move
I make every word
I say,
and take me for granted
in every way

If you try to reach inside of me
I'll fight you out
shed a tear here and there
but will never put pout

Because I'm tired
Tired
Tired of you keep saying

she thinks this
she says that
she does this
she did him
she touched this
she likes that
she started this

Those are just rumors
you still don't know me
because I've been in situations
you wouldn't imagine

I've been in Baby-booking
I've been in Waksters
I've been homeless
I've been raped
I've been adopted
I've been pregnant
I've been criticized
I've been chased
I've been threatened
I've been shot
I've been on the streets
I've been chosen second by my mother
and my step father was first

Most of all I've been in my shoes for 15 years
and you think you know me
walk in my shoes be where I've been
see if you know me then say whatever
about me.

lenay. what a strong woman you have been forced to become, and you can express yourself like this. no matter how hard your shell is always, always, express yourself. someone will see/read those true colors and you will make all the difference in their lives. which eventually brings your spirit back. you have potential to be a great writer. keep at it. much love and strength for you girl. one.

hey girl well we both have the same problems iwent thru alot 2 N I know it´s hard when people critize N think that because of wat we went thru we will make the wrong choices in life 2 but wat we went thru is to give us streight to be strong N so little things won't hurts us because we know wat pain is N I can honestly tell you that we are strong and the survival of everything i'm not scared of wat can happen 2 me N E more i'm passed my past now I have a new war 2 fight N thats kepping my 3 bb's out of those things I know I can't always b there but I will fight so nothing can hurt them like my child hood hurted me. So kep being strong we can't fight everything except for death so God bless.
