The Day Of My Life

Every fight for the day of my life inasmuch as it's my right to exist and thrive.

my life is far from perfect
but I'm putting on my big girl pants
and forge ahead

i’m going to reclaim my narrative
which has been twisted
deprived of its truth

every drop of tears flowed
every drop of blood spilled
every heartache

everything that’s not my shame to bear

word by word
line by line
page by page
i'm going to spill it all out

i shall write
as if it's the day of my life
laying bare
what has been obscured
by the shame they instilled in me

every drop of tears flowed
every drop of blood spilled
every heartache

everything that’s not my shame to bear
