We all start out 

With bright intentions 

Choose our partners 

And down the road we go 



But for some comes 

The power struggles 

And for the first time 

You see the one you're with 



The separation 

Seems the easy way out 

Why stick around and cry 



This cold reality trapped me 

Between two doors 

She would not let me back 

And I was too scared to push forward 

But halleluiah baby 

I am healing 

This pain and rage I felt for years is finally leaving 

I only have one prayer 

It's for my children 

Hope they pull through and their little world keeps turning 

This cold reality... 



We all feel it's 

Need to get out 

Sometimes we act out 

In hurtful ways 



So validate her 

And emphasize with her pain 

Sounds so simple 

How come we learned it too late
