Domestic Disturbances

This is dedicated To that man who expresses love through hatred I'm tryin' to make it clear that you leave scars everytime you say "" If you love your woman, why do you beat her? Why do you mistreat her? Why are tyin' to defeat her? Or could it be you don't love her? You don't trust her You get scared by the emotions you feel when you touch her Either way, you need to be a man, motherer Look i know you're confused as hell , you've probably been abused yourself But you don't have the right to put her throught this hell A real man treats his woman without devout honor He doesn't scream and shout on her Or take his problems out on her Just put yourself in her place Everytime you slap her face All affection you show is fake And what you do ain't making love, it's rape Hidin' her face in shame, cuz you've convinced her she's the one who's wrong That's the reason she won't move on Hopefully she won't stick with you long You're despicable, miserable and pitiful Raising your hands to some one half as big as you Who never did to you Slap her, kick her, punch her, man you've done that all What kind of man are you? You're not one at all This is dedicated To the girl who looks for love and endures hatred I don't know how you face it I just pray that you escape it Realize you're worth something And all the bad that happens to you? you don't deserve nothing He ain't the best you can do, girl, that herb's fronting He started off flowers and compliments That's how he got you on his Now he's broken down your confidence Baby girl, that's how he wins He does the wrong don't let him convince you that you do Don't let his mind games seduce you Listen up, this is crucial I don't know if anyone told you But he beats so he can control you Cuz deep down he's afraid he'll lose you Use that knowledge to your advantage When a man hits you shouldn't stand it Don't be embraced by the same arms he throws hands with You've just been led astray Believe me there's a better day All you need to do is get away Until you realize this all i can do is bow my head and pray This is dedicated to the cat who's not dedicated To any of the principles upon which love is predicated The man who doesn't treat her right Let's her cry herself to sleep at night I just hope one day you see the light Pay close attention to the words that i spit at you There are many invisible Ways to make a woman miserable There's more than one kind of abuse besides phyiscal There's more types of harm that a man will do Some kinds of abuse come in forms that are intangible Lying and cheating, making her feel that you don't love her Ignoring her, acting like you're the boss of her, making her feel smothered Oh you wear the pants, huh? It's your way or the highway, right? Who the are you to tell her she can't go to that club on friday night? The jealous type, acting overprotective You know you're the only one she having sex with But can't accept it Overzealously suspicious of evey guy and girl she's friends with If you love her, trust her, if not, leave her alone You ain't her father and you have no right to keep her at home Badmouthing her girlfriends, trying to get dirt on 'em Grow up, your lack of self-confidence ain't her problem I got something else to say, maybe it's not my place to But if you were even half a man, you wouldn't be unfaithful Son, you're disgraceful As soon as her lights shut off You're out with some other chick, tryin' to get your nut off If she was smart, you'd be cut off What one ain't enough? Thinking of other girls when you're makin' love Stop playin' dumb And show true love for the girl you're strayin' from Let me lend a helping held You're whole relationship's a selfish scam Sometimes i wonder how you call yourself a man This is dedicated to the girl who's dedicated To the man who violated everything she felt is sacred The man who strayed from the straighter path The man who made her mad The man who made her cry far more than he made her laugh Honey wake up Aren't you tired of tears smearing your make up? Aren't you tired of constant fights and repeated break ups? I think it's time you tell your man he needs to shape up Or ship out Before you flip out You need to tell him to cut the Cuz you won't put up with it You've simply had enough of it And he if refuses to change Be prepared to leave him You don't need him There's no reason to keep him I know you love him, but what's the point if he doesn't reciprocate? Besides, the relationship isn't great Get out before it gits too late Move on And get your groove on Stop singing that blues song Cuz there's a new dawn This kid never bought you flowers or wrote you love letters Aren't you just fed up? Come on we both know you deserve much better Love can be a painful thing If you're unaware of the strain it brings There's too many people who misuse it Abuse it Sometimes lose it It's a double-edged blade
