I am a women I learned this long ago

Wearing my moms overgrown heel shoes

Sneaking her perfume that smelled like rose

She told I was one of kind oh I I believed

In promises of what blessings in life I would receive

I am insecure that wasn’t so hard to figure out

Becoming a young lady dashes you with a case of doubt

Starving my mind with glam magazines of images I could never be

Of my first crush on boy who didn’t notice me

I am in love for first time

Wasn’t hard to come this conclusion

The second his lips kissed mine

The lessons this love embedded into my inner core

Made me part of who I am , once again Im remained Im lil insecure

I know how it feels to grieve someone

Somewhere along this yellow brick road I lost myself

Tasting the gravel of hitting rock bottom as my life comes undone

I know how I feels to doubt your faith

When everything around is so corrupt and unsafe

Shattered pieces of people, places and memories

Are gathered around me on the floor

Im to be a daughter,sister,wife,mother who could ask for more

Morning has arrive how I wish I could delay it a bit longer

Say to myself in the mirror I am woman I learned this long ago

Wearing my moms overgrown high heel shoes,

I pull back the loose strains of hair from my face

Remember she told me in time you will find your right place.
