Stronger Through Me

I wrote this one in my notebook a few weeks ago, and finally put it on my computer! Enjoy! :)


I’m finding a way through this mess of
Things that I can’t understand
I trip up on the things that I don’t see
And I catch myself with my hands
The stinging is real and the stinging is strong
And it hurts more than I can stand
I cry out for help from this rut I’m in
And you say as you take my hand:

            “This will make you stronger
            Than you ever dreamed
            And yes, I know it’s hard
            But you can gain your strength through me
            It’s not easy
            But it was never meant to be
            It’s the fight that makes you better-
            Makes you stronger through me.”

I pick myself up, dust myself off
And I get on my way
Soon I find myself slapped in the face
With another hard day
The stinging is real and the stinging is strong
And it hurts more than I can stand
I cry out for help from this rut I’m in
And you say as you take my hand:

            “This will make you stronger
            Than you ever dreamed
            And yes, I know it’s hard
            But you can gain your strength through me
            It’s not easy
            But it was never meant to be
            It’s the fight that makes you better-
            Makes you stronger through me.”

As I push on again and again
As I get closer to the end
I reach the heights I couldn’t see before
And I try hard because that’s what it takes
And I fall down because I make mistakes
But someday I won’t make them anymore

Now I’m standing on top of this peak
On this conquered mound
I look over the edge
And back down at the ground
And the fight was real and the fight was long
And sometimes more than I could stand
But you always helped me when I was trapped
And now you say as you take my hand:

            “This has made you stronger
            Than you ever dreamed
            And yes it was so hard
            But you found your strength through me
            It wasn’t easy
            But it was never meant to be
            Because this fight has made you better-
            Made you stronger through me.”
