This Is Me Lyrics - Singles - Angel Haze

Hey, Momma, remember when we left home? 

Damn, I was barely half grown 

I kept crying as you sat me on that Greyhound 

And tried to reassure me that things would be okay now 

But they wasn't, and we both saw it coming, I mean 

I was just a kid but I was far from a dummy 

And as the pain grew you got more reckless and destructive 

Like the time you tried to fight and chase Matt around in public 

It was crazy, and I ain't never seen it one way 

I just used to think the cops would take you from us one day 

And each time I had to be as strong as I could be and more 

And take myself to places I had never fucking been before 

Tragic, even in your sanity was madness 

You tried to make peace so you could teach me how to grasp it 

You should know I'm proud you're doing better for yourself 

And that everything you've been made me exactly who I am 

And it's you and me, and everything we are is everything we'll be 

I swear I'll always love you, I know you feel the same 

And I just want to say you made it through the pain 

Set my soul free, let me grow 

Set my soul free, let me grow 

Hey, Dee, I know sometimes you fucking hate me 

But we've been through a lot and I've been thinking 'bout it lately 

We seen a lot of shit some kids should never have to see 

Like the shelter, and every night we starved ourselves to sleep 

Or like when Daniel used to hurt me and you tried to intervene 

Or when I told you I was going to kill you all when you were sleeping 

We were crazy, but we had a lot of bad examples 

Living how we were living, that's a lot of shit to handle 

And every time we turned around it seemed like she was hurt again 

Even when she promised us we'd never have to hurt again 

And we never had a family 

But even with the hatred, we have never not had We 

You should know that I'd be here until the curtains close 

Even when you lose yourself, here until your hurting goes 

You should know I'm proud you're doing better for yourself 

And that everything you've been made me exactly who I am 

And it's you and me, and everything we are is everything we'll be 

I swear I'll always love you, I know you feel the same 

And I just want to say you made it through the pain 

Set my soul free, let me grow 

I said, don't let me go 

Set my soul free, let me grow 

Dear little girl inside, everything is fine 

We got through all the pain and even got to keep our minds 

Sometimes we still get crazy, but not the way we used to 

When the love that you know now is nothing you were used to 

Sometimes you have to stop feeling sorry for yourself 

And love You, that way you can teach anybody else 

And if it's pain that you were feeling, you release it till it stops 

Or else it will get stronger and just beat you till you drop 

You're a lot smarter than you're ever given credit for 

Live like a simile, lessons are a metaphor 

I hope one day you're strong enough to break free from the cage 

And that everything inside you is the reason I be great 

And it's you and me, and everything we are is everything we'll be 

I swear I'll always love you, I know you feel the same 

And I just want to say you made it through with Ra'een
