Colors are back

The only colors I could see in kindergarten was black and blue

When you said you loved me I knew it wasn’t true

When you said you cared that’s when i learned to lie too

When you said you’d be there I knew i couldn’t bare it

I know that you lied

I knew shouldn’t wear them

All the bruises inside

It hurts me

and it hurts my pride

I swallow all my sorrow

Just to try to be humble

Then I crumbled

Into a thousand pieces

It’s like I couldn’t breathe

All the colors left from me

I tried to let it be

But you didn’t let me

And it hurts cause you were my mother

You were supposed to protect me like no other

Instead you let me hurt

What about now

Well now I’m different at a place

After the foster care and aging

I got adopted now and I don’t wanna replace it

Cause you finally came around

I’m not listening to what your saying

Your black and blue now

But it isn’t my fault

You did this to yourself

So just back off

And For my real parents who care about me

The colors are back now because of my family

And home is where the heart makes it

I’m not home with my bio mother because she faked it

And still hurts to say it

Now I just want to say this

Thank you to all the people who never let me down

Because of you I no longer frown

The colors are back now

All I have to do is smile
