​

I had it rough, I had it tough, people told me I wasn’t enough
I may have looked like I had it all, that wasn’t the case though not at all

Pain on a pretty face, smile the pain away

And tell them I’m happy and content, most of the time they fell for it

​

But look at me now, look at my smile
Aint nothing fake about it, I worked hard for it
Took me a while, but I found my smile
And I know that I won’t lose it again

​

People would laugh and I would cry,

and many days I would ask myself why
I was a victim for so long, out of my pain there came a song

Sinful melodies and dangerous harmonies

Memories were bitter sweet, if you know what I mean then sing with me

​

Look at me now, look at my smile
Aint nothing fake about it, I worked hard for it
Took me a while, but I found my smile
And I know that I won’t lose it again

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Said I know that I won’t lose it again
