[Hook]



Living Wasn't Easy

Cuz We Didn't Have Much Money

But I Knew I Would Make It Someday.

They Told Me I Was Nothing

That I'd Never Be Something

But I Knew I Would Make It Someday



[Verse 1]



This Is My Story, I Was A Girl Who

Came From Nothing & Life In My Surroundings

Was Bad. But Deep Inside Me

I Would Pray For God To Guide Me

Cuz I Knew He'd Give Me Strength For Life

And All It's Problems Back Then.



[Verse 2]



Hand Me Down Clothing

Empty Shelves Inside The Cupboard

And Mama Kept Three Jobs To Make Do

I'd Hear Her Cryin

But She Never Stopped Between

3 Girls, Light Bill & The Rent Ya'll

Livin Wasn't Easy Back Then



[Bridge]



Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh--------[Backgrounds]

By Faith I Believed One Day I'd

Sing & Things Would Get Better

So Don't Give Up No Matter What It Seems

(Modulate)



[Hook 2]



Livin Wasn't Easy

Cuz We Didn't Have Much Money

But I Knew I Would Make It Someday

No Matter What It's Seeming

You Gotta Keep On Dreamin

And You Know That You Can Make It Someday
