Out of the Darkness

Just feeling a little overwhelmed.
Like it's just all to much.
Sometimes never knowing which side is up.
Sometimes you just have to step back and look at the whole picture.
Take a deep breath and remind yourself it's gonna get better.
Without the hard times, stress, and confusion.
You'd never have bouts of clarity, happiness, and joy.
Have to have faith and the strength to Judy pray.
It may be raining now.
But the sun will always shine another day.

Keep love in your heart;
God in your prayers.
Strength I'm your soul;
And peace in your mind.
Not every day can be sunshine and rainbows.
You must first travel the untamed path to find your way out of the darkness.
There's always light no matter how dim.
Just blink a couple times and clear your sight.
You will soon see your way out of the darkness.
Just follow the light.

Always pray for a better tomorrow.
Only you can decide what kind of day you'll have.

New Kind of Me

The pain is killing me.
The memories haunt me.
I can't cry or be upset.
For this is the path I've chosen.
To let go and move on.
Things weren't good.
Life was stressful and you raised your hand to me.
How could I ever let that go and just move on?
I couldn't get past the jealousy and you always bein' paranoid.
You kept judging me cuz of my past.
You never had no right to do that.
Trying to live and better my life.
Yet every day was a fight.
This is a brand new me and like hell will I let anyone hold me back.
To many years fighting for change.
Change begins within you and with you.
If your not with me your against me.
So get to steppin' out my life.
I don't need your kind of love and all that pain.
I'm a good woman and stronger than ever because of all the pain I've endured.
Trust is earned,
Love comes naturally and unconditionally.
There should never be a price on love.
I won't give up who I am.
Ever...Never..... Not for no one.
I'm a brand new kind of me.
Love me, be with me,
Hate me or against me.
I'm gonna do me and not worry bout you.
This is a new kind of Me.
