Labor pain I write this through a haze Going in and out remembering grey days I woke up from a dream Where I had to fend from three They didn’t even know me I was only 13 Labor pain I’ve moved past the blame But how can make sure You’re Journey doesn’t go the same? I wanna protect you from the world But the world taught me It is what you make it When I was only 15 Labor pain This is my labor pain I’ve cut the chord So you won’t have to feel my shame Labor pain This is my own labor pain It’s not yours I’m doing the best I can To make sure your playground is free rein

LABOR PAIN
Labor pain I write this through a haze Going in and out remembering grey days I woke up from a dream Where I had to fend from three They didn’t even know me I was only 13 Labor pain I’ve moved past the blame But how can make sure You’re Journey doesn’t go the same? I wanna protect you from the world But the world taught me It is what you make it When I was only 15 Labor pain This is my labor pain I’ve cut the chord So you won’t have to feel my shame Labor pain This is my own labor pain It’s not yours I’m doing the best I can To make sure your playground is free rein
Wrote this at the beginning of my labor Growing up, becoming a mother, i don’t want to pass On my trauma to my child. We do the best we can, Sometimes we become the product of our environment, and sometimes we used that as an excuse
