I was abused
 ended up living                    But you came
 in a children’s home               Why did you come
 When I came out                    I pray to God one day I can forgive you
 I had to hustle                    But I am not ready
 a bit here                         No, not ready
 a bit there
 I had to care for my daughter      Now, I find joy where I can
 Blessings                          I play with my daughter
 sweet Blessings
 she has cerebral palsy             When I wear my sweater
 I have to take                     I am beautiful
 good care of her                   It doesn’t reveal what struggles
 I thank God                        I have seen
 I have her                         it is so blue, so much brighter than
 and I have my grandma              my past
                                    my past had no colours
 I wrote a letter to my mum. I asked her  And I know my future will be better
 why did you ruin my life?
 I was in the children’s home       The clear blue
 Life was a little good to me       It makes me believe
 and you came and said              that all my dreams will
 this is my                         come true
 missing child
 You took me away
 but you didn’t take care of me     I wish I had my life complete
 You left me in the streets         I wish my daughter could recover and
                                    be like other kids
 Someone took me                    I wish GOD could hear my prayers
 I got pregnant so young            and answer them all
 and after one year
 my baby was ill                    I wish I could get a better job and
 she can do so little                  take good care of my family
                                    I wish God could give
 If you hadn’t taken me                my grandmother eternal life
 from the children’s home           I wish I had never been treated badly
 I would have learned things           in my life
 I would not have been pregnant so young  I wish I could get the best daddy for
 I would have stayed in school         my daughter Blessings
 I would have been older before     I wish I can pass through all challenges
 becoming a mum                       in life but not fail and lastly I wish
 so I could have taken good care of her  all will be well in life.
