Garden of the Gods

You tried so hard to ruin my life  
and all those words  
they cut like a knife 
And all you did was  
try to bring me down 
Well I survived and  
I'm still around yeah 
I learned to live  
with the guilt and shame 
and now I know  
how to live with a name 
No more will I cower with fear 
I voice my power from far and near 
I survived the hell  
you put me through 
I survived without you 
Even though you hurt my pride 
I haven't curled up and died 
I wanna know how you're feeling right now 
Are you looking to  
escape somehow yeah 
Times were hard  
and times were rough 
But I learned I had to be tough 
I 
I'd like to be known that
