Some say the life she took is easy
Just because it is the opposite of their life that is messy
But nobody knows the weight of the baggage she's carrying
The heavy burden she kept on like no ending.
Nobody knows she crossed through the burning fire barefooted
Nobody knows she walked through the desert without a single drop of water from the ground
Nobody knows she took a walk in the snow without the warmth of the thick coat
Nobody knows she transcends into the sky without wearing a parachute.
All they know is that she's lucky to survive
And now she's taking the facile path and strive
They never know the pain she went through
The bruises and scars she kept to herself but never let go.
It's never been easy until you were in her shoe
Try to carry her baggage to let you know
She deems lucky but everything she had was not fluky
She learned how to carry her baggage and still chose to be lucky.
