drunk and evil

Lyrics

Verse 1
Mama got a bottle in her hand again,
Another night of pain I can't pretend.
She yelling loud, calling me out my name,
Every single day feels just the same.

I try to walk away, I try to keep my peace,
But the hurt inside my heart never seems to leave.
Tears falling down while I'm praying to the sky,
Asking God why a mother's love passed me by.

Chorus
Drunk and evil, that's how she acts,
Breaking my heart with every attack.
Calling me names, saying I'm no good,
Treating me wrong when a mother never should.
Drunk and evil, but I won't break,
God gives me strength with every step I take.
I survived the pain, I survived the lies,
Now I'm holding my head high.

Verse 2
People see a smile but they don't know the truth,
All the pain I carried since my youth.
She was fighting demons I could never understand,
While I was just a daughter reaching for her hand.

Now I'm stronger, I refuse to fall,
I'm standing ten feet tall through it all.
The cycle ends with me, I choose a different road,
Leaving all that hurt behind to lighten up my load.

Chorus
Drunk and evil, that's how she acts,
Breaking my heart with every attack.
Calling me names, saying I'm no good,
Treating me wrong when a mother never should.
Drunk and evil, but I won't break,
God gives me strength with every step I take.
I survived the pain, I survived the lies,
Now I'm holding my head high.

Bridge
I forgive you, but I won't stay hurt,
I know my value, I know my worth.
The tears I cried made me strong today,
And God's love showed me a better way.

Outro
Drunk and evil couldn't steal my soul,
Couldn't stop me from reaching my goal.
I'm stronger now than I've ever been,
My story doesn't end with drunk and evil.
