"The Soul of a Woman"
Whenever I'm walking by,
What do you really see?
Is it my outward appearance?
Or do you seek the inner me?
Sometimes it's just so hard,
To make it in this world.
But I must remain strong,
For the sake of my baby girl.
My heart feels so heavy,
And my soul seems so lost.
But God please help me make it,
Help me to pay the cost.
I often feel so empty,
Like no one truly cares.
Lord I feel like my burdens,
Are far more than I can bare.
Men say they want good women,
But can you tell me why?
When I do give my all,
I'm the one left hi and dry.
I've opened up my heart,
I have let people in.
But when all was said and done,
It was me hurt once again.
I try to be so strong,
I try so hard no to cry.
But it's so so hard,
To hide this pain inside.
So many things are happening,
And I'm yet to find a clue.
So I'm asking you dear Lord,
Tell me what I need to do.
I won't let the world break me,
For there's much for me to gain.
I won't be overwhelmed with sadness,
Or consumed by my pain.
Whenever I'm walking by,
Now tell me what you see.
Is it my outward appearance?
Or do you see the inner me!!
