you told me how much you like me but i still find it difficult to believe you. im trying not to doubt your intentions but my mind still play tricks on me. you’re so kind to me but sometimes i want to push you away because im afraid. i never had anyone treat me the way you do. i never felt safer with anyone but you. can you please be gentle with me?
you dont know how sick you were until you detach yourself from the environment that gave you the disease. you dont know how shitty you were treated until you let go of all the negative beliefs and habits that you developed. you dont know how strong you were until you realised that you have held on for so long and survived.
that girl has me wrapped around her finger and she doesn’t even know it. she’s the type of girl i’d hop on a plane for at the drop of a dime just to be in the same room as her — and i’m terrified of flying.
When I was just a little girl, I use to sit and wonder about this world About the good, bad, wicked and ugly. I learned so much it wasn’t funny Take it from me; that’s a real tip! People living in the street. Little innocent children can’t go out to play. ‘Cause neighborhood war, shooting from door to door. People being robbed on their way to the store.
The gift of life is the greatest of all Each breath I take, I feel real tall. Life is real. I learned that young. Life is hard, often unkind, You’re sitting still; life’s moving on. Look out, beware! It can blow your mind. It’s okay to wonder not too lon’ No need to run, 'cause you can’t hide. You’ll be left sitting by the waste side.
Fathers aren’t present, that’s the pits Mothers turning tricks, to get a hit. Our young children caught up in drug wars. Babies being born drug addicts, is making me sick. Teenagers go every way, but never take the right.
how many rapes jokes does it take to be funny? he knows the answer is none. no one had to tell Amnon the sin in taking Tamar, nor was Duryodhana confused when he patted his thigh mocking Draupadi, nor Dusshasana dumb when attempting to disrobe her. yet you chant men need to understand, to read and watch our unending torment to understand evil.
