RUN
I thought everything was cool and sweet
my heart was at a very fast beat
came home and a slap came across my face
as hard as it came I thought he was going
to catch a case
the hollering and the cries
"I'm tired of you and your lies"
my eyes bleeding with a whip coming down my face
I never knew he was filled with so much hate
kicking and screaming for my bro but he never came
"where were you how could you leave me in so much pain"
they call it tough love, but back then
all I wanted from you was a hug
"I'm tired of the shit" I ran until I couldn't run no more
until I found an open door
that made me feel so secure
