Stolen Childhood
As a child, I always felt loved
You made me feel I didn't exist
Your touch confirmed I was unloved
Fear made me a slave, couldn't resist
You robbed me of my childhood years
As a child, I always felt loved
You introduced me to many fears
I couldn't believe in God above
One day I was free as a dove
When I raised my voice real loud
As a child, I always felt loved
I could stand tall and very proud
No longer shackled to my past
I embraced love from up above
Living life daily with a blast
As a child, I always felt loved
