Livin' Proof

[Verse 1]
They said this blood of mine would run dry in the dirt
Now look at you, a garden grown from all my hurt
I see you walking 'cross that stage, a brand new start
And feel a whisper breaking chains around my heart

[Chorus]
Oh, this is my prayer answered, this is my livin' proof
They tried to tear down my house, but child, you are the roof

[Verse 2]
I remember hungry days and doors slammed in my face
Just a girl with calloused hands who wouldn't know her place
But I held on to a promise I could barely speak
That the strong would be born from the ones they called the weak

[Bridge]
So let 'em watch, let 'em all see what a little faith can build
This family tree is standing where the ground was once untilled

[Outro]
They told me I was nothin'. Honey, you're my everything.
