Abused

So many feelings bottled inside of my being I take this mess day by day Pushing my obstacles outta my way I can't believe i can still breathe After all the things that i've seen I walk outta my room Same mess as last nite After the big fight She's on the floor again He'd been on her again... Beating what little she had left Into a pile of drunk on the floor I hate it when she's like this I told her it would be like this But did she listen? NO Did she see my tears glisten? HECK no I wouldnt let her see She didn't need to know me What goes on inside Belongs inside of me At school they all know Cuz being native is tough We've all had enough Of the alchol abuse and the beatings People call us stupid But some dont know anything more Cuz most times when you grow up one way Your life is gonna remain the same No matter what they say
