I am a mother to four beautiful children I always put them first I am not my disease I am hardworking One job at a time just isn’t enough I let nothing slow me down I am not my disease I am goofy I like attention and I do what it takes to get it I am not my disease I am high-spirited I walk with my family and friends by my side who love me because, I am not my disease I am faithful With God’s love I will never be powerless He alone is my reassurance that I am not my disease I am strong I will never lose sight of who I am I may have this disease but, I am not my disease

I owe it all to you mom
I do not see, If you want the truth The benefits Of endangering my youth You think it's fun Like some little game I think it's dumb What could you possibly have to gain? Kids my age Should be able to have a good time Without the help Of a glass of wine You drink and smoke And party all night While I stay at home And do what I believe is right

Nothing to gain
What would happen,  If you were to hurt someone else? Someone healthy and loved Someone doing the right thing Six beers in I'm not even drunk Give me my keys  It'll be alright Until you wake up In a hospital bed  The only thing being said  are dozens of questions Was this manslaughter? Did she do it on purpose?  This is your fault you know  You shouldn't have been driving  You're under aged you know You shouldn't have been drinking  You're lying there in pain  The other in a morgue You caused her family more pain in their hearts  Than you feel on your body  The guilt will live with you forever  Never being able to say you're sorry Always the one to blame This is your fault What was there to gain?  A hangover?  "Fun" times  that you need a camera to remember?  What if role were reversed And it was you doing the right thing  What if it were you being buried?  And Your family the ones crying at YOUR grave  You didn't ask for this But you did  You know drinking has consequences  Yet you still decided to do it Was it worth it?

Me and you
From the day I was born You have been my mother I knew there was a reason That God paired us together Now that I'm older I can start to see why You have been there to lend me a shoulder And pick me up when all I can do is cry Without you, Who would be there to speak for me? When I'm shy and can't say my mind You step in saving me Unconditional love Is all you've ever given me A mother-daughter bond That just can't be beat I love you with all of my heart Redamancy is my gift to you You've been with me from the start It's me and you, tried and true

Mom
They say kryptonite is superman’s weakness but mine must be you because you leave me speechless sweetness is all you've ever given me sleepless is all I’ve ever been since we became friends but now I feel like our friendship needs a cleanse expectations I guess mine were too high its understandable though it just wasn't our time I got upset I only wanted to forget what we had but why spend my days being mad? I cant make this your fault I locked my heart up in a vault my mind keeps racing look at me I’m spacing I wonder if this would be different if id have left it alone or if we had went for it everyone's always saying you two'd look cute together but it only hurts me more in my head its like the first world war but I think i'm losing you're my best friend I have to respect that its just going to be hard since my heart is somewhat scarred do you understand though? Why im starting to let go really my hearts just incapacitated because ive been captivated by your sweet looks and charm you make me so infatuated I hope she makes you happy thats all I want for you im sure ill find someone too eventually now you know what im undergoing I just hope our friendship can keep on flowing
