I LAUGH

i ain’t smoking pot to get away

not praying to jesus to escape the day

not using food to suppress my feelings

getting fat and not dealing

ain’t takin xanex to deal with my fam

ain’t eating fake or rollin a tire

i ain’t pretending i’m okay

i laugh when it’s not okay

i’m not a tough mother

not a dirty girl

just trying to make my way

take a look, someone take a look

take a look, someone take a look

i take a drink, i talk too loud

i laugh when it’s not okay

was i ever scared?

no i was not

your love, your trust, remains in my heart

i cleared every hurdle

i jumped for joy

running faster than the boys

i laugh when it’s not okay 

i laugh when it’s not okay

i laugh when it’s not okay

i laugh when it’s not okay
