Creeping In the Night
Silence of the night, bring so much fear
He stole; he took, from me what is dear
That creaking old board that’s loose in the hall
The monster that tried to hinder my call
Mama; help me, this isn’t right
Your man in my room creeping in the night
Don’t you care that your baby is being raped
Don’t you care how her world is being shaped?
How can you lay there mama and hear my screams
How can you let this monster in my dreams?
How can your heart say you love me so much
But yet you let this monster fill me with hurt
I’m your little girl; you should keep me in your sight
But you let your monster creep in my room at night
The smell of his breath, and deceit in his mind
You let this monster rape me time after time
I’m afraid mama, can’t you see I’m scared
Please keep this monster out of my bed
I hear you crying in the room next door
How long will you lay there, how much more?
Why let him ruin your little girl’s life
Why let him creep in my bed at night
Every time he touch me I call out your name
You stand outside my door crying won’t do a thang
I cry all the time because I’m filled with fright
Cause your man won’t stop creeping in my room at night
