I Am
I am strong and determined

I wonder what it's like to be free as a bird?

I hear raindrops falling on a tin roof

I see leafs turning on the trees as fall approaches

I want to live, laugh and love like never before

I am strong and determined

I pretend to laugh at jokes that aren't funny

I feel grateful to have such a wonderful family

I worry that I want be noticed for who I really am

I cry when I think about the past

I am strong and determined

I understand that hard work always pays off

I say "no one knows what it's like to live in someone else's shoes"

I dream that one day I'll be able to provide for my family

I try to put others before myself

I hope for peace and pray for happiness

I am strong and determined
