I Am Who I Am

I am who I am and who I’m destined to be

So much hurt and pain that pain wouldn’t let me be

I Learned life wasn’t a game

I was struggling so much my mind wasn’t the same

As a kid life was all about fun

But now that I’m an adult I see that life has just begun

Bad decisions sent my life on the run

Life took a turn for the worst and then at times it got better

Life had me so chilled I had to wear a sweater

Self therapy I wrote myself letters

I talked to people and we either agreed or disagreed

And there was no need to argue because it escalates to the next degree

But if we keep the mindset to learn we can be set free

Instead we do the same things that caused us not to succeed

My mind was in constant battle I was always on my knees

I had to learn that prayer was

the key

Struggling with a relationship this man was no cup of tea

Macho man gun to my face

He had to show me that he was first place

I thought that kids could fill his heart’s lonely space

He didn’t want me to leave my

vision wasn’t clear

Love was all I could see because I thought he wanted us to be

But God opened my eyes and I was able to see

He had a vision for me this battle he wanted me to flee

His plans for me I didn’t foresee

But strong is what he inscribed inside of me

I am who I am and who I’m destined to be

God saw what that man didn’t see in me

Free from negativity free from deceit

Taught as a child to stand on my own two feet

And so I am who I am and who I’m destined to be

I am Sasha I am Me

Accept Me As I Am

For I am not a mistake

I was meant to be

I was made so fearfully and wonderfully

And though my purpose to some is unclear

there is a calling in me

So do not be blinded by what the eye may see

Accept me as I am

my whole being; In its entity

I am not like the women who

we call a celebrity

For my expensive clothes

do not define my identity

Neither does my weakness determine
