Chorus:
Thank you for all the tears all the stress your the best I feel blessed I'm a better women now.
Look how I smile all you did was help the next man cuz this experience made me who I am.


Verse 1:
I tried to make me love you. I tried to make me stay but every time I tried myself and I got in the way.
Just for the sake of my daughter I tried to stick to the plan but I had to get rid of my fourth finger left hand.
To everybody listening sorry if you're disappointed you see the life I chose was only what I thought I wanted.
Nothing's picture looks can be disceiving what I thought was love was something I cannot believe in.

Chorus:
Thank you for all the tears all the stress your the best I feel blessed I'm a better women now.(ohh)
Look how I smile all you did was help the next man cuz this experience made me who I am.

Verse 2
I always had that feeling that baby boy was cheating. I kept telling myself if you aint brand just leave him.
But I wasn't raised to quit cuz quitters never win (no no) but what do you gain when you feel incomplete within?
I'm sick of all the questions, all the whats and whys (whys)
What happened?, why ya'll break up?, why we never see you cry?
Do you know how it feels to hurt behind closed doors?
When you go outside you're wondering what you're smiling for.


Chorus:
Thank you for all the tears all the stress (your the best) your the best I feel blessed I'm a better women now.(better women cuz of you)
Look how I smile (smiling) all you did(look what you did to me) was help the next man cuz this experience made me who I am.


Bridge:
Now that it's over I can mend.
Now all you had belongs to him.
My heart is open like a book and everything he eats I cook.
What I'm to him he is to me.
We are each other's everything.
But if I would've stayed with you I wouldn't have it like I do.

Chorus:
Thank you for all the tears all the stress your the best( thank you) I feel blessed I'm a better women now.(Look at me I'm smiling)
Look how I smile(ohh) all you did was help the next man(you really helped me) cuz this experience(it made me) made me who I am.(let it ride)

Thank you for all the tears all the stress your the best I feel blessed I'm a better women now.
Look how I smile all you did was help the next man cuz this experience made me who I am.
