Pain

Bashed to the floor
Ugly, inferior, helpless and worthless
A low self-image has been made
It's continuously reinforced
Barbed words that never leave the mind echo
And cripple from the inside
Wounds of self doubt bleed
Fear and tension
Built to fall from a broken foundation

Begging for forgiveness when no real wrong has been committed
Just to try to calm the rage before it degenerates into violence

There's no refuge
In what should be the refuge
When the wrong words ignite anger

There's no refuge
In what should be the refuge
When the wrong words ignite anger
Into frustration that can't be controlled

Stumbled, fractured through years of confusion
Now the direction's set
Your potential is finally realized
Rising as the embedded harm is slowly overcome

Bashed to the floor
Ugly, inferior, helpless and worthless
A low self image has been made
It's continuously reinforced

Barbed words that never leave the mind
Echo and cripple from the inside

Arise and build anew
Express release
Seize control
Express release
Reinvent
Arise and build anew
