show me what you really feel
i don't have time for anything but what's real
whether it's a good bye or a kiss
the truth is my only wish
if you love me come clean
if you hate me let me be
deep down you'll never change me
i am strong and powerful like the sea
do not dare to put me down
i am small and proud and will stand my ground
my chest is heavy full and aching
because even the heart of a lion can end up breaking
but do not let that sink into you
you don't know what i've been through
i flew in from heaven on an angel
without notice of how Earth was so painful
i have overcame every obstacle
but there's just one that i found to be impossible
he claimed my love and took advantage
ripped me from my purity but won’t claim the damage
i’m more than what he thought i am
i am truthful and courageous
by far the greatest threat known to man.

to me you are unique in all the world
always exhaling your worries
constantly making my thoughts swirl
there is no one for me but you
the thought of our beings intertwined
alone in the universe just us two
counting the days i get to see you again
praying that you are thinking of me
hoping you mention me before you say amen
maybe you don't feel the same for me anymore
time passes and i realize nothing is the same from before
you are not mine
i am not yours.

even the heart of a lion so strong and brave still grows in love
no matter how prideful and humble it's all i  think of
the men i grew with showed me affection and betrayal
everything i thought love was like was a false portrayal
my chest is always full with doubt or devotion
sometimes even both causing a commotion
whispering to myself if this is really worth it
because sometimes it feels like i'm painting a portrait
of my sadness and putting it into another person
but really its just i found another version
of me and now i finally can see
and understand life isn't so blurry
love gives me purpose and hope in life
one day i want to be called someone’s wife
all my hopes and dreams are stored into someone’s palms
them holding my heart as i bleed away the psalms
i pray to get the chance to meet my twin flame
the one who will be a balm to all the pain
keeping their promise for me to not feel it again
because i don't want my love to end
even the heart of a lion is so fragile and delicate
it has once felt so broken and desolate
but as the men i grew with showed me truth and eternity
everything i thought love is was an uncertainty
the weight on my shoulders grows heavier day by day
with the games the devil loves to play
on me but finally God has saved me with this presence
and i am grateful for the granted patience
the men i grew with
they were the ones who helped me sprout
into an angel on earth, a heaven unknown
no matter how hard it was to accept my growth
i know this is my destiny
love is meant for me
from the bottom of my heart i put my courage into God’s hands
i once thought as time goes on it’ll feel like a contraband
a ***** deal that whisked me into a coward
but that is not me anymore i have flowered
a being of nature breathing only for myself
without the help of anyone else
because when the men i grew with left my life
this heart of a lion felt real love.

i feel the flowers and i feel free
but i still need you here with me
as i watch everyone growing old
i realize i still need your hand to hold
i'll be needing you by my side endlessly
but my love for you is taking a toll on me dreadfully
without you i feel as i would die at times
but when i was with you, i always needed to color inbetween the lines
you changed me, you know?
so now it's time to finally let you go
