Ok for now,
I wish someone would have
told me that I'd be ok
I wish someone would have
Held my hand and guided me
Towards the right way
I wish someone would have
Helped me,
pick my head up
And showed me what life could be
I wish someone would have
Smirked at my first heart break
and instead of asking questions
Just let me be
Then explained why
it's ok to cry
Followed by all the reasons
Why sometimes
Life just lets love die
I wish I gave my time to men who
knew how to kiss me on my forehead
and remind me that life is
Nothing short of beautiful
I wish more men could see how
my insides are beautiful
I wish I was taught to tell
a man from a boy
I wish my mother stood beside me
as I looked
For defects in each mirror
I wish each teacher would have
Encouraged me to follow my dreams
Instead of study for essay tease
I wish the school system told me
that my worth wasn't defined by my test scores
And I wish television showed me
that struggle is reality and
I'd be happy cause with emotional
and mental stability
I wish I broke less hearts
I wish my father wouldn't have
Cheated on my mother
And I wish it were easier to find
a lover nothing like him
I wish it were all a little bit easier
I wish I could speak to the younger me
and apologize for all the hurt and
Confusion I put me through
God
Look what I made of me
I wish little me could see
I can't keep from smiling
Through every struggle I learned to find
I'm far more powerful than
Any formed against me
I wish someone would have
Told me that...
I'd be ok
