Page turners, offers, products pushed.
Franklins in jackets and cotton with kush.
Oh what is this?
Life is for living.
I've got my own, don't need anymore pain.

Did you know that sister?
Did you know that mister?

Some are like iron, some die for gold.
If you're gonna get sad, get sad with soul.
Oh what caused this?
Why's it so chilling?
I learned my lesson, don't put me to shame.

Did you know that boyfriend?
Did you know that girlfriend?
It's make believe,
Learn the difference

That made you strong. It made you strong.
Made you strong.

Mage on the inside, pauper, the outside.
Don't even joke or I think I would die, so
Spare me the trouble,
Come on, be honest.
I'm grown enough to know you never cared.

Did you know that young man?
Did you know that old man?

Broken but sewn, not that it shows.
Forgiveness is letting them free in the cold.
Daddy is gone
But mama's still here.
How does it feel to put this past repair?

Did you know that mother?
Did you know that brother?
It's make believe.
I know it hurts,

But it made you strong. It made you strong.
Made you strong.

On and off and back again.
Tell me why and tell me how.
You can put that face away,
I don't believe you're sorry now.
You don't know how strong I am,
Not that it would matter now.
I just need your story straight
To justify you walking out.

But It made me strong,
It made me strong,
It made me strong.

Somebody hold me. Somebody told me
I shouldn't worry but watcher's are talking.
How come I can't fly away?
It doesn't matter what I say.
I need a father, this isn't a game.

Did you know that barter?
Did you know that martyr?
It's make believe,
Learn the difference.

It makes you strong, it makes you strong.
Makes you strong.
It made me strong, it made me strong.
It made me strong.

I don't wanna cry tonight,
I just wanna sleep tonight.
Pull my head and hold it high.
Give the bullet one more bite.
I'll find my own superman.
Crush the battles, hold his hand.
At least I know now
that it made me strong.
This song is about my relationship with my father. He doesn't seem to want a daughter.
