Christina Aguilera - I'm Ok Lyrics
Once upon a time there was a girlIn her early years she had to learnHow to grow up living in a war that she called homeNever know just where to turn for shelter from the stormHurt me to see the pain across my mothers faceEverytime my fathers fist would put her in her placeHearing all the yelling I would cry up in my roomHoping it would be over soonBruises fade father, but the pain remains the sameAnd I still remember how you kept me so afraidStrength is my mother for all the love she gaveEvery morning that I wake I look back to yesterdayAnd Im okI often wonder why I carry all this guiltWhen its you that helped me put up all these walls Ive builtShadows stir at night through a crack in the doorThe echo of a broken child screaming please no moreDaddy, dont you understand the damage you have doneTo you its just a memory, but for me it still lives onBruises fade father, but the pain remains the sameAnd I still remember how you kept me so, so afraidStrength is my mother for all the love she gaveEvery morning that I wake I look back to yesterdayIts not so easy to forgetAll the lines you left along her neckWhen I was thrown against cold stairsAnd every day Im afraid to come homeIn fear of what I might see thereBruises fade father but the pain remains the sameAnd I still remember how you kept me so afraidStrength is my mother for all the love she gaveEvery morning that I wake I look back to yesterdayAnd Im okIm ok
