Set free

Life was harsh
until i met you
had to work hard
nothing i could ever do

i hated waking up
just to see i made it through a night
but now that you are here
I'm grateful for this life

i would cry myself to sleep
to weak to even pray
now that you hold my hand
i have so much to God, to say!

i had no respect for myself
not proud of who i had become
then you said i was better than that
and the past could be un-done

hated who i was
i despised my own life
thats when i opened my heart
and took away my knife

like i said before
life was not very good to me
until i met you
finally, i have been set free
