Cant Live This Way
look in my eyes to find the real me
Ive been through hell
dragged through the mud
being in this no stop world
is making me twirl
i am confused
and i am looking through the news
just to see all the discriminating and hating that's
out there on the streets
its dangerous to take a step out my door
without being beaten
welcome to my world
i have scars on my arms
god hear me out when
i say i cant
live this way
cigarettes on my floor please no more
headache from satin
roaches on the floor
i need
to get me out of this place
and don't judge me when i say
i cant live this way
