When you're happy as I am
The world is a better place
Colors seem brighter
It shows on my face
So many years ago I wished
For the life that I have now
Hoped to get here someday
Though I wasn't sure how
Doubters tried to hold me back
Raining on my parade
Ousted them from my life
The ones who love me stayed
My days are sweeter now
Burdens seem much lighter
People think I'm a sweetheart
Actually I'm a fighter
Clawed my way out
From a life full of pain
Too many times to count
Then built it up again
Now I only do as I please
Which is the hope of some
Had to work so long for it
To the beat of my own drum
