Leave me alone
Stop bothering me
Why donb't you let me breath
You're always harassing me
The time has come
For us to part
I can no longer
Allow you to break my heart
I'm sad and depressed
Now I'm out of work
Three months pregnant
And I want an abortion
This is all your fault.
How could you lose your job?
Now we don't have an income
I was warned ahead 
That you were nothing but scum.
But I thought I was in Love
Man I was wrong
4 years I gave you
And it all went wrong
Why did you choose to have your son?
I thought we could work it out
Wrong again
I'm ready to pull the trigger
And bring this crazy life to an end
Now what am I to do?
With you no longer here?
Every night I have to cry these tears
And you don't even care
How could you do this to me?
And our babies
When they ask
Where is daddy?
What am I to say? 
You better believe you're paying child support
Or you and I are going to court.
I now understand
Why this is happening
It's just a test
To strengthen me
I'll be damn
If I let a Man
Get the best of me
So pack your bags and get out
I will do fine by myself
I am strong woman
Tear fall from my eyes
Out of shame
But now as they drip
I know it's because
I didn't let you win!
So thank you
For making me the 
Strong powerful woman that I am now!!!
