I Wont Be My Mother Or Family
I no longer want to do this
I am breaking a big promise
That was made by a scared kid
I wouldn't do what others did
With the neglect and abuse
This decision I would choose
To make sure my children were
Always loved, never unsure
How much they meant to my heart
Knowing from the very start
Of their birth, they'd always be
The most important thing to me
I'd struggle and sacrifice
To give them a better life
Than the sadness I was in
I would not cause the same sin
My whole family inflicted
On a small innocent kide
No child should ever feel
A families love isn't real
I don't ever want to see a trace
Of sorrow upon their face
Only happiness and cheer
Not one single lonely tear
Will fall from their lovely eyes
Because of any false lies
They have ever overheard
There will only be kind words
Of truth they will depend on
Hearts will never be stepped on
No anger will ever show
As little ones begin to grow
Having their own family
Looking back, hoping to see
All the love they have been given
Will be used as they are livin'
Their own lives with family too
The love they learned will shine through
