I thought my life was over, I wish I could go back;
to reciprocate my mistake, and get myself on track.
My heart was pounding furiously, as I approached the clinic door.
The only thought that was in mind, was my life being over for sure.
How could I let one mere accomplishment, ruin my hopes and dreams?
The celebration has caused me great pain, and wasn't worth the trouble it deemed.
Now I stand with no direction, like a child in the real world.
this experience has helped me see, that I am no longer daddy's little girl.
I'm a woman now, and I can make my own decisions.
And I will not let this minor setback, alter all my visions.
I simply have to change directions, and go another way.
As I adjust, I've come to realize, I am a new woman today.
No matter what the results say, irresponsibility is no more.
I have now another mindset, as I open a new door.
No more drinking...no more drugs...no more pre-marital sex.
No more telling him I need him, when I know he could care less.
No more hurting daddy's soul, cause' he's the one I love most.
No more making dumb decisions......and to this I raise a toast:
My life is not over, and my dreams are not crushed,
although this is good news, my heart is still touched.
I've made myself a promise, and I will do my best to keep it.
I'm letting the world know, because this will be no secret.
For I can not afford, to risk my entire life again.
And a special thanks, I owe, to one of my most faithful friends.
You've been there for me like no other, and have shown me true love.
I owe it all to you, because you are the man above.
You've saved me time and time again, and what have I given you?
I'm not worthy of your grace, but you know now, I am true.
I can't explain, how vital it is, for me to give my all.
As I enhance the gift you've given me, to play basketball.
Like all things this must come to an end, but I would like to say:
Thank you for saving my life again, and it is in Jesus' name I play.
