All the pain you have felt throughout your life
All the hurt that has been placed upon you
You have been beaten and mistreated by many
Yet you stand strong as if it doesn’t bother you
Your innocence taken at such an early age
Beaten mentally and physically every day
Tossed out as if your life meant nothing to the world
Yet you smile and keep on pushing every step of the way
Why don’t you cry most would ask to try and understand
You have built walls so tough and never shed a tear
Why don’t you cry when the world seems to be too tough
It’s because you hold something in your heart so dear
You turn to God when all else seems to crumble
He lifts you high and wipes away all the pain
You praise him and follow his direction and word
For he will give you a life in which riches are to gain
A treasure of love, a blessing of life, a soul so strong
Why don’t you cry is because you are blessed an anointed
You have been born again and you walk with your head up
You follow God so now you will never be disappointed
