True Story

You was just a little girl and your daddy he wasnt there
Mama didnt buy you clothes cause she spent it all on her hair
She was runnin' the streets and leavin' you everywhere
You cried to go with her but knew that she didnt care
Cause she left you alone and never gave you the time
Only 10 years old feelin rejection in your mind
All you had was imagination and your teddy bears
Cryin' late at night asking God to erase your fears
But he aint talk back so thought that he didnt hear
From that moment on you decided you didnt care
Make a way for yourself, take care of yourself
Cause when it came down to it you aint have nobody else
All you had was yourself but you aint need nobody else
Now you 18 years old and girl you somethin else
You got a chip on your shoulder and a boulder on your heart
But you was on your way, walkin blindly in the dark
Pretty girl you done had a hard life
All you’ve ever known was the pain & the strife
You didnt know while you was tryna live your life
That the whole time you was lookin for the Christ
Now you a teen and life is still mean
You met a young dude who said he’d give you everything
But you was young and naive believing in anything
And you thought that one day he might give you a ring
Yall started datin' and everything was cool
Yall was love makin' now you pregnant by a fool
Wait, wait what are yall gon' do
Now all of a sudden he aint in love with you
He talkin 'bout abortion and he dont care how you feel
And you really wanna keep it but you cant afford the bill
Cause you all alone and you can’t afford a home
And that baby in your stomach is all you really want
But he give you the money and tell you to just go
Now you at clinic and you feelin super low
Now you at home feelin all alone
And the blessin the God put in your belly, is gone
Pretty girl you done had a hard life
All you’ve ever known was the pain & the strife
You didnt know while you was tryna live your life
That the whole time you was lookin for the Christ
Now you grown and life is real as eva'
You got bills to pay but you aint got no chedda'
Then you run into your homegirl named Lavetta
She tell u 'bout the strip club that made her life betta'
Now you a vixen yea u strippin & dippin'
Now you gettin your money cause everybody is tippin'
And anybody wit somethin' to say you tell 'em they trippin
Strutin in dem 6 inch heels but now you slippin
And deep down you fallin a part
And you can’t trust men cause they always breakin your heart.
And you never forgive 'em so now you into the women
But it dont feel right cuz u know it’s unnatural livin'
Aint no room in the church cause they hate you and your all sinnin'
You been bangin on the door but they still won’t let up in it
Cause they too judgmental & too caught up in religion
But dont worry cauae that’s the reason I’m on this mission
Baby girl you just listen, it’s one thing that they forgettin'
Christ died for your sins and
He the one thing that you missin'
He love you and wanna fix everything that you need fixin'
So put your past behind you cause baby girl you forgiven
And everything you need is right there in his hand
The chance to start all over, discover beauty within
Everybody gotta past, but this your new beginnin'
Let it all go, its time for you to start winnin'
Pretty girl you done had a hard life
All youve ever known was the pain & the strife
You didnt know while you was tryna live your life
That the whole time you was lookin for the Christ
