Second Chance

Verse

I was taken away, child of the state

Told myself, life's over, ain't no escape

Worryin' 'bout my sisters, wonderin' what's next

Visiting my baby sister, cryin' in that crib, it broke my heart to pieces

Chorus

I felt like I failed, couldn't save the day

Yellin' at the world, but they just walked away

But then I got a second chance

My new mom showed up, gave me a brand new life to dance

Verse

Tried to break free, but they'd catch me every time

Caseworker watchin', I was trapped in the grind

Couldn't leave 'em behind, that's just not what I'd do

Saw my little sisters face and saw her crying and sad

I know I could not leave her alone, I had to do something

Chorus

I felt like I failed, couldn't save the day

Yellin' at the world, but they just walked away

But then I got a second chance

My new mom showed up, gave me a brand new life to dance

Bridge

She gave me a family, a life to live

Showed me love, gave me a chance to thrive

I'm grateful for that second chance, it's changed my life

Now I'm livin' proof, love can win the fight

Outro

Now I'm here, with a heart full of thanks

Got a mom who saved me, gave me a brand new life

I wouldn't be here, if it wasn't for her grace

She's my angel, saved me from a dark place

I'd be in prison or six feet in the ground

But she's the reason I'm standing here, wearing a crown
