Just tonight, I won't do this for you I may be nothing But you can't hit nothing And ***** you for thinking I'm just enough to keep punching I'm not much of a feminist But I know what the difference is Between love and violence Your affection is not factoring in The broken capillaries under my skin Just tonight, I won't do this for you I don't like being told what to do Don't hold me down in your bedroom It doesn't get me off It only ****** me off I can try to be your baby You can try to save me Gotta be a gentleman before I act like a lady 'Cause being a fine lover Will not be your cover Just tonight, I won't do this for you I may not be worth enough But I know what the difference is Between violence and love And I choose love

Just Tonight
Just tonight, I won't do this for you I may be nothing But you can't hit nothing And ***** you for thinking I'm just enough to keep punching I'm not much of a feminist But I know what the difference is Between love and violence Your affection is not factoring in The broken capillaries under my skin Just tonight, I won't do this for you I don't like being told what to do Don't hold me down in your bedroom It doesn't get me off It only ****** me off I can try to be your baby You can try to save me Gotta be a gentleman before I act like a lady 'Cause being a fine lover Will not be your cover Just tonight, I won't do this for you I may not be worth enough But I know what the difference is Between violence and love And I choose love
for me this is purely hypothetical. i've never experienced a physically abusive relationship; i'm just very inspired by the subject. and of course, some of the lines can be taken metaphorically as emotional hits.
