Step

First off I am 15
You believe I wouldn’t
I break that promise
You trust that I will be there
I show, and you take advantage
You went all the way
Let nothing behind
You took everything I had
I can never get it back
You lure me
Build trust within me
You got close to me
Seduced me
Did what you did
Did that one crime
Kept doing that one crime
You knew you had power over me
Took advantage
Now Look
No look
Take a look
Look who has power
But I will use that for good
I am letting you turn
Turn around and step in the other direction
