Love Ain' T a Power Strip
I look into your eyes
I see the fear
he brought into your life
If u don't do something
or if you do it wrong
he raises his hand at you
then fear for your life
I've seen this happen so many times
One of these nights
You should walk out and leave
Don't let that man
Control you
If that guy really loved you
Why does he smack you around
What is with him always being in power
Love is love not a power strip
Don't let him hurt you
Don't let him scare you done
Don't feel embraced about the marks
Don't think that he is winning
One of those days raise your hand back
Don't get scared
Cause girl I backing you up
love is a special thing
Don't get me wrong
But love ain't a power strip
He wants all the power
He wants you too
He has to learn
Your a good girl
Not a play toy
I see your fear
when I look in to your eyes
I know he raises his hand
all the time at you girl
Don't be scared
let him know you fight back
Don't leave him win
fear ain't love
and love ain't' a power strip
