I'm proud to announce
My strength is the winner today
My strength is overcoming my addiction
My Strength is the winner I say
I'm proud of the time thats passed
the time that I have not hurt
The time I have not bled
With death I did not flirt.
I'm proud that I have not cried
Cried because of anger
I have not cried because my tears have dried
Dried with love.
I'm proud to announce
That I have not the thought to harm
Harm others or myself
Harm my heart or my body
But I'm still left with the scars of the past on my legs and arms.
I'm proud to announce
That Im getting better
Not for you
Not for them
But for me
Myself.
