Since birth ive been hurt
Tossed aside like I'm dirt
Never wanted, at first
They were lost in their search
Seems like I was cursed
Lost abandoned and worse
Parents quickly dispersed
Left me with perverts
I confess I was molested
When I should have been protected
Grandfather aunts and uncle
The things I was subjected to.
My thoughts consumed
Memory can't be viewed
Locked inside a room
Buried deep down
It's mine to lose
Foster care was next
Taken away for the best
Group home all alone
Passed along and take a guess
Another pervert
Always trying to give me sherbert
It makes my nerves hurt
Silenced told not to disturb her
I was finally adopted
Which finally had stopped it
Lost lonely no options
Not wanted forgotten
They didn't want me either
For four years same procedure
Work the fields until the evening's
Age 10 daily beatings
Spare the rod spoil the child
Better off if I had died
Beat harder if I had cried
But I did die inside
Then straight out of the blue
On my birthday too
My mom shows up
Tells me get my shirt and shoes
Then she gives me the news
Come with me so choose
Cuz I'm leaving right now
I've got no time to lose
They made her come get me
She acted like she miss me
But really her past history
To me was just a mystery
She had become an addict
Party hard she had to have it
Left with strangers become a habit
Molested... amidst the static
Didn't understand the attraction
That they had it just happened
What I didn't know was tragic
I didn't know they shouldn't grab it
Years and years went by
My virginity lost in time
I can't remember the crime
It was one of the times
If this has happened to you
Sorry for what you went through
I know all the abuse
Realize there can be no excuse
