Ugly kid

[skatethewall]

When I was a kid I walked the streets
Longed to be beautiful underneath the rags I wore
I slept in garages, empty apartments and cars
Couldn’t go home because of the evil step dad
The bastard couldn’t keep his hands to himself
Terrifying a little girl with sick games and cruel punishments
I didn’t know what was happening to me as I started to self destruct
Blamed myself because that’s what victims do
But all the while I could feel Gods love shining through
Shining through when I was an outcast
I almost lost my mind
It took me many years to patch myself together
Sometimes it still seems hopeless
But something inside isn’t trying to hear that
Something inside won’t let me quit
Something inside fights like a champion
That’s what happens to a man whose been knocked down more than most
He learns to fight

See Skate, Skate - that's why I loveded you man, it's that spunkiness in your work. I was basically raised by my moms and she's a strong woman and so I'm a big fan of women who refuse to be a victim yet strive to be the victor.
It may be a man's world but you (women) are the back bone, honestly.
You get what you settle for in this life and I get the feeling that you won't be takin' any shorts. So keep the strength my Xena of the pc. hj
