Don't Cry For Me

I know you see me weak 

and at times I don't eat

but don't cry for me.

I've lived strong and carried on

taught you what you needed to know

so you can keep on going.

Don't cry for me,

God's leading the way home

I'm passing the torch on.

Just use it to light the way.

As I watch over you while you pray.

Celebrate my life, remember my story

Even though I'm no longer here

Don't cry for me when you mourn me.

I'm forever a part of you, etched in your soul.

God had a place for me, so I followed him home.

Look into your heart, replay my words in your head.

Use those tears to water the mental seeds I left instead.

Hold your head high, be sad for a lil' while but don't you ever cry.

God took you away for a reason

one I'll never really know

It's like he's crushing my heart

with painful menacing blows

You were my soul supporter 

my will and desire to continue to live

And now that you're gone

I have an empty space 

No one will ever fill

I knew you were slipping away

but it was too hard to believe

All I wanted was God to pull

a miracle through for me

but he didn't answer my prayers

or hear any of my cries 

The same arms used to take

care of you 

Were the same arms in 

which you died

All morning long I sat and gazed

I didn't know what else to do 

Until I heard a voice say

come outside if I wanted to be with you 

As I opened up the door the only

thing there for...

Resilient

Lost innocence and the hurt I carried inside 

Bruised ribs and the scars I had to hide

Tears from all the years of pain

Scared, I couldn't stop it from happening again

Using pillows to constantly dry my eyes 

Being tired and books became a way to escape the why's

Wishing I died, not realizing I was destined to live

Tried to end my life, but I had lessons and love to give

Turned my anger into words and regret into hope

Nature became my escape and how I learned to cope

The telling of my story it helped me heal

Knowing it's still good in my heart gives me chills

For once, I can look in the mirror and see a happy soul

Not the experiences that tried to break me 

But the ones that gave me this happy glow

You're my wrecking ball and you came busting through

This peace and I love I have, I never woul...

Endings

The moment you finally give up

you realize it's for the best

The moment you stop caring

get that ishh off your chest

Cry it out, thug it out

but don't ever look back

It might sting a little 

but It'll hurt worse going back

Forget all the happy times

and remember that ishh was fake

If anything was valued at all about you

things would of turned out a different way

It's not a thing you lost that can't be replaced

who needs doubt, inconsistency and lies

Let whoever have him

and break those toxic binds
