I live in hardship
I’ve been through so much,
I’ve been through so much pain
I’ve taken far too much
Yet I am still smiling
And I am still rooted in love
I stay positive and I stay in touch
With everything that’s spiritual
And that lifts me up
When it comes to hate
I’ve seen to much
It doesn’t do a thing for me
I live for better days
I live within the present
The past I let fade away
I’ve been forced to grow strong
I’ve never had a choice
Yet I still feel compassion
And gratitude and appreciation
I still love my enemies
Though others may find it frustrating
I keep my anger in check
I keep myself centered
Despite living a hard life
I do what I know is right
And this has lead me to find
Some happiness in my mind and life.
