Child Abuse
My Daddy's mad at me again
The beating are about to begin
He has that evil look in his eye
He grabs me up and throws me against the wall
It hurt so bad I begin to cry
I try to run, but I slip and fall
He tells me I'm stupid and I'm not his kid
He hits me so hard I hit the floor
I wish I knew what I did
Please daddy, please no more
Daddy please, can't you see you're hurting me
I'm sorry I made you so mad
Please daddy, please let me be
I promise I'll try not to be bad
He's finally done and I go to bed
My body hurts and I start to cry
I can feel the bumps on my head
Please God take me away from here
Please God just let me die
