Losing hope was freedom,
Freedom to be who I need to be,
Freedom to believe what speaks to me,
Losing hope started it all,
A transformation where old pieces were stripped away,
And the new was left to stay,
Losing hope was a way of forgiving,
A way of forgiving family,
A way of forgiving the world,
A way of forgiving me so I can trust,
So I can put trust in friends,
So I can trust in my decisions,
So I can be free of the world,
To be one with the world,
To be me...
