Past Present New Beginning
Do you remember that girl that talked about her step-dad raping her
yeah I do
why does this go unjustified
why must she hid her pain with smiles and laughter
the sound of his voice gives her chills
as if shes freezing outside in December
The sounds of screaming, begging yelling STOP!! Get off me
haunts her like a nightmare come true
his eyes laughing, smile as he goes and touches her
kisses and says he loves her
in the back of her mind she's saying get off me I HATE you! Stop STOP!
running down the hallway she screams mama help me!
tell him to stay away
going around crying and screaming
when she can be dancing and singing
she is raped with no one to help her
when she screams it's like the sound of a train blowing
so loud it drowns out all noise
when she's not even able to fight
But now that she knows that wasn't right
now she has to sit back and hold tight
holding so tight to not lose her life
now thinking back on her life
she realizes that she doesn't have to go through this
thinking that she has no one
someone that she can depend on
she starts turning to the wrong people
people who she thought would make her feel equal
she thinks why can't we have nine lives
looking back on all the pain and strive
Is singing and dancing the only way to cope
she needs someone to give her a whole lot of hope
if you think about the struggle
and the way she really lived
you'll see that she's not just an ordinary kid
now when you see her she's a shining star
reason why is cause she sets a high bar
now she doesn't have to cry or scream
all she thinks about is her crazy wild dreams
now trying to do her best
and trying to stay like all the rest
now she needs to find her dreams
and have a man treat her like a real queen
Only I define me in the brightness of my destiny
