My Joy

This song right here is to that, that, that, that person

I won't even mention his name

They said I couldn't do nothing without him

Who are you to tell me that I can't go on without you?

And why you tellin' me I'm never gonna survive?

But once upon a time, yes I believed that lie (Oh, Lord)

But sorry no way, no how, you can't control my mind

'Cause if I thought you were the end all in my be all

I would've never left you alone and I wouldn't be on my own

And I never, never would've grown

No, no, no, ain't no way you gon' take away

My joy, my peace, my strength

No, no, no, ain't no way you gon' take away

My joy, my peace, my strength

Thank you for the times of all the pain you gave me

The hate you showed to me taught me how to love myself

It's funny how you tried to break down my pride and my spirit

It doesn't even matter now 'cause I done moved on with my life

'Cause if I thought you were the end all in my be all

I would've never left you alone and I wouldn't be on my own

And I never would've wrote this song

No, no, no, ain't no way you gon' take away

My joy, my peace, my strength

No, no, no, ain't no way you gon' take away

My joy, my peace, my strength

No, ain't no way

No way, no way

Oh no, no, no (No, no way)

Tellin' you, tellin' you

You can't take away

'Cause if I thought you were the end all in my be all

I would've never left you alone and I wouldn't be on my own

No, I never would've found faith and I never would have loved again

If I thought you were my end all in my be all

I never would've found faith (Never would've found faith)

Never would've loved again (Never would've loved again)

And I never would've wrote this song, no

Talk about it

Talk about it (You can't take away my joy) My joy, my joy

My joy (No)

I'm tellin' you

Tellin' you

Can't take away, can't take away my joy

My joy, joy, joy

Joy, joy, joy

Can't take away my joy

My, my, my, my joy, joy
