A Strong Woman(shout out to Yvonne)

What good is a young woman's armor when she falls
hard,it shatters which makes life's struggles even harder.
Not to mention a county prison cell that's constantly filled
by her father. Her eyes water as almost everyday she tries
to hide rivers of tears along with the painful family issues
that grow stronger as they harbor, because daddy isn't there.

Her mother a beautiful woman who gave birth to this soldier,
lost her way and still tries to hold her 6 beautiful  blessings
down like a weakened hero under a boulder, but with her
mother's arms too weak from the poison in her system, she
pulls away and becomes rough and rugged like a wild west
loner, and must find her own type of wisdom.

Her being the oldest of 6 must care for them like they're her
own. With a lot on her shoulders and not enough on her plate,
she became weak to the bone. But as any true survivor, she
gathered her courage and became tough as stone, and did what
she had to, to bring the money home.

This woman wakes up everyday tough like an animal in the jungle.
She tries to stay strong and let no one knock her hustle.She doesn't
want a castle, but hopes what shes' built doesn't  crumble. She's
worked so hard and often stumbled, but she just prays to god, that
she stays humble. She keeps her eyes on the future and her mind on
the struggle,and if a bitch starts talking, she's always down to rumble.

Her motto sticks, "Only the strong survive". Shes' proven time and
time again, she'd rather fight til shes' dead than be taken alive.
She strives for the best and soon enough, she'll thrive.
