Be Strong

When I was younger,

Innocent and sweet,

I loved everything that shaped me.

I was happy to make the most of my time.

My childhood brought me joy and made me whole—

Singing, playing, telling stories; it was simply the best.

Those were truly my fondest memories.

**Chorus**

Life is not easy;

Sometimes it can be hard.

Life is unpredictable;

At times, it can be easy.

Be strong.

When I was 16, I felt trapped in a box

Full of tears and sadness.

I carried the weight of the world, and it hurt so much.

I felt lost when I lost you.

I thought about the life I once knew,

A life filled with joy and happiness.

You were a part of my life,

And I cherish those memories to this day.

**Chorus**

Life is not easy;

Sometimes it can be hard.

Life is unpredictable;

At times, it can be easy.

Be strong .

I was once a child, and I have learned my lesson.

I understand that no matter what you want or do, we will always be the children of our past.

**Chorus (2x)**

Life is not easy;

Sometimes it can be hard.

Life is unpredictable;

At times, it can be easy.

Life is not easy;

Sometimes it can be hard.

Life is unpredictable;

At times, it can be easy.

Be strong.

I still miss the person I used to be…
