Janet Jackson — Gods Stepchild

[Verse 1] Gotta story for you 'Bout a little friend Never felt good enough Had a heart to mend Never felt pretty Learned to just pretend Wished someone had listened For her silent cries of pain [Chorus] Maybe I'm the lucky one Maybe the forgotten one Maybe, but I know I'm not God's stepchild [Verse 2] Didn't want to burden Mother had enough stress So often I'd talk to you Through my four-legged friends Always there to listen Though I felt so all alone And in my times of trouble I know you saw my smiles of pain [Chorus] Maybe I'm the lucky one Maybe the forgotten one Maybe, but I know I'm not God's stepchild [Verse 3] Now that I am older Gone through so much pain I learned that I should love me No more feeling ashamed I've seen the great illusions I've sought the rough terrain I'm walking my own journey And my love for you remains [Chorus] Maybe I'm the lucky one Maybe the forgotten one Maybe, but I know I'm not God's stepchild Maybe I'm the lucky one Maybe the forgotten one Maybe, but I know I'm not God's stepchild [Outro] I know I'm the lucky one I know I'm a special one I know, that God does Not have a stepchild
