You've watched me grow up,
You went through it too,
You saw my struggles
And my pains had a home in you,
You lived through the battles
You have the scars to show
Where I've been through in life,
You already know
But I was gone,
I thought I was alone;
No one understood me-
And I was on my own,
I had no where to turn
To search for peace of mind
Alone on my path-
Only darkness I would find
You knew nothing
Of, this person that I am
You just helped me prepare
For that final exam,
You disregarded details,
Looked beyond my fear;
Told me you loved me
And you was always near.
Filled me with beliefs;
That I hold to my heart
And softened the pains,
That tore me apart
But everything changed
When your fears came true
You heard first hand;
What you already knew
The years of preparing
Weren't enough for the tears
Now I'm with out you
For this truth interferes
Now you only think
Of the pain that you feel
No longer do I have
Your guidance to heal
Alone again,
On this journey of mine
Apparently in your eyes
I crossed a line
Now to make my life better
Is what I set out to do
Only difference now,
Is that I'm without you
But I will make it through
And this you will see
I don't need your support
To be set free
