A song I wrote for my Drug-Prevention team. It's about child and domestic abuse. |
I've never set the song to music, so I am not sure how it really would sound. I'm in a group called America's Pride (prideyouthprograms.org) and through Toledo Pride (my local pride team of the hundreds in the nation) we have another group called the PEACE Project (Protecting Every Abused Child Everywhere) and I wrote this song for the PEACE Project. Someday Verse One: Is anything worth this pain? I keep it locked up, I’m going insane. You tell me you love me. Mommy, what is happening? I want someone to help us But someone will make a fuss. Chorus: Daddys beating and yelling Till I’m all alone Until Daddy comes in and throws at me the phone Oh mommy, why do we go on this way? And all you say is we’re gonna be outta here someday Someday, someday. Verse Two: Mommy, what’s wrong? Daddy’s been gone so long And you’re sitting here crying Please, no lying. I want someone to help you, to help us. But all someone will do is make a fuss. And Finally;; Chorus: Daddys beating and yelling Till I’m all alone Until Daddy comes in and throws at me the phone Oh mommy, why do we go on this way? And all you say is we’re gonna be outta here someday Someday, someday. Closing;; Daddy rolls in around one thirty Hes all scraggly and dirty He walks around and grabs a knife And yells at mommy till he took her life. And She’s finally outta here, Do I get to leave too? Daddy, am I leaving too? |
