I feel like I've been set up to fail
Because I'm a stranger in town
But how else can someone believe in self
Because she chose to turn her life around
To be given a chance at Life anew
But who really cares it's not you
To control the life of another
Isn't any isn't fair to any child father and mother
We all messed up that we do
But what if it was you in their shoes
Would it be funny to see your hurt
To feel like your face is thrown in the dirt
Talked about everywhere you go
Because you're someone they don't know
Not family to call your own
People judge on things and know
They Snicker and laugh
The moment that you turn your back
Trying to turn one's heart black
Because they don't like how you act
To try to scare you away
Because they own all in town today
Digging into your past
To control you and how you act
To lie and blame another
It's just a way of running for cover
It isn't right and it's so unjust
To not be able to even earn your trust
Day by day she walks alone
Looking to find a place to fit
On her start to begin again
Because broken heart was the only friend
Time and time again she prays
Defends no one that will stay
Her family is all dead and gone
And she's been for too long
Her childhood was always abused
Do I have since true to her and others
Love this deeper than child to mother
To love God love from above
To get friendships and soon yours will cover
And don't hate because of skin color
And then we're all the same as each other
