My mom was a wonderful person
Codependent on a horrible loser
My stepdad was terribly abusive
He'd sneak in my room and be intrusive
My brothers he beat with a belt
Until they all had big welts
We're young we can't see the loop
Soon in life we will follow suit
I married a man who's verbally abusive
To my daughter his moods were intrusive
Why do I feel so sad
When his behavior was so bad
He would yell and scream
But I held on to a dream
I could help him shine supreme
I found there was no solution
I had to leave his pollution
Time to make a new start
Away from this man with a cold heart
