I Lost It Searching For You

Calamity fell upon me like a storm Anxiety took over my situation Reality stroke me as with a bat Perversity is alarming in our days Virginity is every little girl’s treasure Immorality cost me my only treasure My virginity was my treasure too Law makers open your eyes and see Lawlessness is robbing us our future Lockup the rapists and loose the key Long ago I would've seen justice Injustice failed me yet again I lost my virginity searching for you I think daddy you should have stayed And be dazzled by my singing talent Imagine me dazzling the audience To see daddies in the audience cheering on their kids Loving their dancing moves so dearly Your absence left me damaged daddy As I lie hopelessly I cried And I prayed fearlessly in tears Seeking a way out of my rape trauma And to stay focus until I locate you I got laid in your former house That was a double blow on my journey I swore “I’ll cease the search” But the love I had for you kept kicking my chest Just like a little baby in her mother’s belly We are three in my mother’s belly And I was the only one abounded Now that we met I’m delighted My scars are like an uphill track Leading to the pick of my happiness Like the golden days of bioscope I cover my past with a white curtain Anticipating a beautiful story to flash through The heavy load on my back if off Now it’s time I live my life
