Why I Am Lyrics – Antwon Vinnie
Singer: Antwon Vinnie
Title: Why I Am
It’s been a hell of a journey
It’s been, really really hard
But i made it through
Thanks to you
Looking at life through these tear filled eyes i can
Finally see why i have a reason not to die
Because you are my pride
My everything i can confide
You are, my happy smiles forever
By my side, you hug me when i cry
Gone are thoughts of suicide
God damn
You’re why i am
A young girl bullied, three brothers a distant mother
A sensitive spirit saw the world like no other
She was twenty years old with the world in her hands
Wanted to be a movie star but life had different plans
Had her first child a year later in toxic wedlock
Barely holding on to her dreams before they’d get lost
God damn it’s crazy to ponder
Everything made her stronger
At twenty-six had an addition to the family
She named him anthony
And anthony was her catalyst
Justin was her strength this sh#t didn’t happen by accident
Going door to door selling perfume so she could feed em’
She knew she’d need em’
Discovered art as a means to finally succeed em’
All the dreams that had long since receded
Because her two boys made her spirit finally completed
Seeing her up high painting on scaffolding’s so exemplary
We’re some of my first salient memories
Momma, i owe you everything
Without you keeping me just afloat i would surly sink
It’s been so hard for me learning to live on the brink
Feeling so alone in this world cause no one understands the sh#t i think
But i’m not alone, i have you
Justin sebastien even arthur too
For arthur’s sake i need to keep fighting and push through
Cause he lost his mother at seventeen!
If that were you mom i don’t know what i’d do
I goes to show that arthur’s the strongest man i ever knew
And hey, this might come as a shock to you dude
Even though i’m a mentor to you, you’re my role model too
You taught me what it means to man up and stay positive
I’m positive that i can beat this sh#t its finally obvious
Imma, enjoy my life while i still can
Because you’re why i am
Living scared of my future made it real now
Living in the past made me grow down
I’ve got one life to live won’t live it without
The ones who make me smile and make me so proud
To fight all of life’s dirty deeds
What i was to my mom my family is to me
You’re why i am (you’re my everything)
I was deprived
Of feeling i could survive
But i’m alive
I’m alive
Now i know i can
Cause you’re why i am
