TRUE SACRIFICE

TRUE SACRIFICE

I THOUGHT I DID WHAT WAS RIGHT TO DO
GAVE MY UNBORN CHILD WHAT I NEVER KNEW
WHAT IT FELT TO BE LOVED AND ALL IT ENTAILS
I GUESS I KNEW WITH TIME MY SELF WOULD PREVAIL

CANT HELP BUT THINK WHAT TRUE LOVE MUST FEEL
THESE THOUGHTS TO MY LOVER I WISH THEY WERE REAL
DID A SELFLESS ACT CUZ THOUGHT IT WAS JUST
THOUGHT A CHILD AND HIS FATHER WERE SIMPLY A MUST

I'LL NEVER RESENT WHAT I DID FOR MY KIDS
GUESS I DIDN'T KNOW AT WHAT PRICE I WOULD GIVE
YOU'VE BEAT ME DOWN AND TORE MY HEART
IF IT WAS JUST ME, I WOULD HAVE LEFT FROM THE START

I KNOW TRUE LOVE IS BETTER THAN THIS
BUT FOR THE GREATER GOOD I CHOSE TO DISMISS
I'M SURE IT WILL ALL COME BACK TO YOU IN THE END
WHEN YOU SEE YOUR ALL FAILURES AND CONFRONT YOUR SINS

I NEVER WISHED MY SELF ALL THIS PAIN
FOREVER THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU WILL STAIN
MAY YOU NEVER FORGET WHAT YOU'VE TAKEN FROM ME
MY LOVE FOR LIFE AND MY IDENTITY

I SACRIFICED FOR THE GREATER GOOD
GAVE MY PRECIOUS GIRLS THE LIFE THEY SHOULD
DIDN'T WANT THEM TO FEEL EMPTY AS I
I DID THIS FOR THEM, MY SELF I'VE DENIED

IS THIS PAYBACK FOR THE THINGS I'VE DONE WRONG
IS THIS A TEST OF MY CHARACTER TO PROVE I AM STRONG
DO I LOOK LIKE A FOOL TO EVERYONE ELSE
I KNOW THEY ALL THINK ITS SO EASY TO JUST GET OUT

THERES ONE COMMON BOND AND ONE TYING THREAD
OUR LOVE FOR OUR CHILDREN DEFEATS THE LIFE I HAVE LED
ALTHOUGH I'M IN PAIN MOST EVERY DAY
FOR THEIR SECURITY THIS PRICE I WILL PAY
