Nothing at all

You say I need to prove them wrong,

That I need to be better,

That I just can’t be me

Let me tell you something,

I already have done that as a matter of fact!

I proved them wrong by telling the truth

I finished what they thought I Couldn’t do!

I went beyond all of that

What more can I prove

I can run & run across the jungle

I’m running and running

 I ran through it all

I’m climbing & jumping

Through all the pitfalls

But that doesn’t matter

Not to them

Not at all

I can walk on water & walk through walls

But it wouldn’t matter

Not to them

Not at all

You can look down at me from where you stand

It doesn’t matter

Not to me

Not at all

Cause I’m still going to walk with my head to the sky

Back straight I got my own stride I don’t need to prove nothing at all

I’m still a good woman

Who can still walk tall

Answer me this, can you do the same?

Look me in the eyes when I call out your name

Can you honestly tell me you have no regret?

That you’re not ashamed?

You seem to forget that I know the truth of the tales that you told

I thought I was crazy

It seems to amaze me

I couldn’t comprehend.

Pondering on the puzzling facts that were stated.

I just lost my mind

I’m ashamed we’re related

Fourteen years later our blood is still tainted

But it doesn’t matter

Not nothing at all

Cause once this is over

You’ll have nothing at all
