When I say I'm great.
When I say I love who I am.
When I say I'm moving forward.
When I say my eyes are open.
When I say I'm blessed.
When I say I'm healing just fine.
When I say I'm a believer.
When I say I refuse to stay down.
When I say my love is here for you.
When I say it's my turn to be happy.
When I say I'm done crying over the past.
When I say I'm done explaining myself.
When I say I'm so done stressing.
When I say I'm strong and a fighter.
When I say I'm done with being disappointed.
When I say I'm in control.
When I say I'm done being silent.
When I say I deserve a good life.
When I say my decisions are my decisions.
When I say don't come for me.
When I say I stay ready for anything.
When I say love me for me, not for what I can do for you.
When I say I'm a ball full of fire.
When I say i choose to forgive and move on.
When I say I'm done apologizing for me being myself.
When I say just listen to me if you are trying to hear me.

Understand me for me not for what you hear about me.
Understand me for what you see.
Understand Me.
