Guera Songtext
You know they say that life is not fair
But I've also heard that everybody makes their own destiny
I guess that's why God everybody free will
So many choices
That we all have to make in this life
And I know we don't spend a whole lot of time in this earth
But I do know
That everyday that passes
It's a day gone forever and it's never coming back
But love...
That's a whole different thing
Sometimes we get attached
And no matter how hard we try
We just can seem to get away

I would give you my soul
Forget them lies they been telling you
I never wanna let you go
(never ever)
Said I would give you my soul
Forget them lies they been telling you
I never wanna let you go

C'mon C'mon
Her name is Guera only 14 with problems at home
The only person that she trusts is the man that she loves
He tells her beautiful things and kisses her so right
She runs away to live with him and his family then come the fights
To make things worse she's got that morning sickness thing
Oh damn! nobody planned it but the baby is on the way
He starts to yell get abusive
Guera! how can you do this things
This baby is just gonna kill my boxing dreams
He wants abortion she refuses
But they still live together
Until she gets arrested, put away, in September
Now pregnant, in jail and loosing her mind
Cuz he don't care he don't visit he wont even write

I would give you my soul
(But she still loves him)
Forget them lies they been telling you
I never wanna let you go
(She never wants to let you go, never wants to let go)
Said I would give you my soul
Forget them lies they telling you
I never wanna let you go
(She never wants to let you go, no. she never wants to let you go)

Takes the pen to the paper writing down what she feels
Love, hate and desperation
Like words that can kill
Close my eyes and pray
Please change your ways how many times did I cry
I see you in my babies' eyes
I'll do more than you've ever ever done
But now its all for her
Cuz now she's number 1
You were sick I was there
When I was down you didn't care
You said I'll I do is yell
But if I don't you won't hear
You always had your way even to this very day
But the love you threw away will cost you big one day
I'm trapped in love with someone who won't even look at me
So I'm beggin to the Lord, ?God help me please?

I would give you my soul
Forget them lies they been telling you
I never wanna let you go
Said I would give you my soul
Forget them lies they been telling you
I never wanna let you go

Amanda:
My name is Amanda aka. Guera and this is the true story of my life.
