[Intro]
I remember that summer of pain
It felt like there was no sun to shine again
The world had changed, nothing was the same
There was no escape from all the rain

[Chorus]
And I never thought I'd make it through
This time of heartache and sorrow too
But I kept my faith and stayed strong
And it made me realize that I don't belong

[Verse 2]
It's been a tough road, I had to learn
The tears I cried could not stay forever in return
I had to seek out new horizons
To keep on believing in my vision

[Chorus]
And I never thought I'd make it through
This time of heartache and sorrow too
But I kept my faith and stayed strong
And it made me realize that I don't belong

[Bridge/Outro]
And though I still feel my pain
It's part of life and that ain't no shame
It's how I've grown and it's made me see
That in summer of pain I'm free
