Story behind the song
This song is a direct result of me being bullied in school. Here is my story.
Some Children/Teens take bad experiences at school (bullying) and use it to hurt themselves or to hurt other, not Stacie Lynn.
Stacie Lynn019s challenges started when she was around seven year's old. She was being bullied at school...nothing nasty at this time, but what they refer to as social bullying. She was shunned by the "In" groups and just plain ignored by other children. By late elementary it evolved into more verbal bullying with the use of hurtful names and making fun of her clothes, hair or anything personal. At the start of junior high the bullying was escalating to a more physical type. The other kids (mostly girls) would push Stacie at her locker, shove her in a line, or just bump her in the hallway because it made their other kids laugh at her expense. Her parents would have to make special arrangements with the teachers for school trip. The arrangements were for seating on the bus or room placement or they would sometimes just hide a cell phone in her bag so she could call home if the situation became intolerable. By the end of grade eight these bullies believed they had the right to physically touch Stacie Lynn in any way they wanted. One day on the way home from school on the bus, Stacie was struck in the face by one of these girls and while Stacie Lynn019s best friend tried to console her and keep her from crying they set the best friends coat on fire with a lighter. After the RCMP were contacted and the involved girls expelled from school the friends of these girls started with constant threats of violence.
Lyrics
Have you ever been picked on,
Or left out in the dark.
Have you ever had a feeling,
Trapped within your heart.
And when you get these feeling,
Do you cry and tear all day.
Or do you hold your head up high,
And say what you need to say.
(Chorus) A girl, who019s been picked on all her life.
Is so much more than she thinks,
She019s Amazing I019m right.
So here is a song out to you,
And also everyone who019s been what she has been through.
So let me tell the story,
About this little girl.
Grew up in a city hating the world.
Each day was filled with pain,
From their fingers in her face.
Pointing and laughing, she019s being put into her place.
Then one sunny morning,
She knew she019d had enough.
She walked into the classroom looking strong and feeling tough.
And when the students started,
With their daily routine.
She showed no pain just smiles,
Till there was nothing to be seen.
(Chorus) A girl, who019s been picked on all her life.
Is so much more than she thinks,
She019s Amazing I019m right.
So here is a song out to you,
And also everyone who019s been what she has been through.
Life for this little girl has been better than before.
From being pushed around to looking strong and feeling sure.
So take the time to know yourself and fill your heart with love.
I know because I was that girl who I019ve grown so proud of.
A girl, who019s been picked on all her life.
Is so much more than she thinks,
She019s Amazing I019m right.
So here is a song out to you,
And also everyone who019s been what she has been through.
You don019t have to go through what she has been through.
