Lyric's Song by Jessica A. Robinson



Lyric's Song


When I was a little girl
I pictured life to be a certain way
Never did I ever imagine I'd experience
both of my parent's would pass away

An orphan at 25
With no choice but to pick up the pieces
And move on
Carrying the legacy and rich heritage
That both my parents took a firm stand on

Was groomed and cultivated for greatness
So I know I can't stop
Was predestined to be successful


Ever rising to the top
In spite of life's circumstances
Finding drive and determination to keep going


Always striving to do better
Because I know that's what I was created for

With talent comes pain
Most great people in this world know it to be this way
You must go through something
In order to get something
Otherwise you'll never ever appreciate


So I never shy away from the pain
Or pump my fist to the sky and ask the Lord
Why do things have to be this way
I know that everything works together
And is an integral part of what makes me great

So I keep pushing forward
Using tragedy to push me further into my destiny
Knowing that my song isn't unique
But its what I do with it that will make history
Keep the faith no matter what the situation
Because you can use your song to further drive your
passion with ferver and determination
