My Sentence - Desi Valentine

What are you afraid of?

I asked myself with my head in my hands

Head in my hands

Scared of what I’m made of

Scared of what I’m made of

Tangled up in this lonely mess

Tell me, am I good enough?

Strong enough?

Special enough?

Special enough?

Have I worked hard enough?

Do I deserve the love?

What are you afraid of?

This is my life

But sometimes it feels like

Doing time, doing time

No, this ain’t my sentence

'Cause I did no crime

This is my life

I won’t live it like I’m doing time

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh

Now I’m telling the truth that I have my doubts

I have up days, down days, smiles and frowns

At least these days I can see the choice is mine

Not scared of the future

I am present, I never look behind

I never look behind

What are you afraid of?

This is my life

But sometimes it feels like

Doing time, doing time

No, this ain’t my sentence

'Cause I did no crime

This is my life

I won’t live it like I’m doing time

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

This is my life

My life

But sometimes it feels like
