When I was on my knees crying, my heart dying in the rain! I thank you for life's pains. When I felt stupid and young for saying ignorant things! I thank you for life's pains. When so called friends pushed me down the never ending path of self destruction. I thank you for life's pains. When my EX girl friend started a fight between two former friends, I thank you for life's pain. When I lost My wonderful training job at JFK. I thank you for life's pains.. When every girl, lady and woman! I ever wanted turned me down, called me names! I thank you for life's pain's (LOL look at how I've grown) I could go on and on.. but I'd still be singing this same old song. I thank GOD for all my struggles in life, for knocking me on my ass.... for letting me doubt myself just for a second before I picked myself up. Now I'm wiser and stronger than before.... I love life not only for it up's but for it's down's as well.
