Are you sorry for things you've done? For the violent attacks on your little son? "It'll make you a man" that's what you said As you kicked him and beat him around the head? Or do you still think that it's ok To treat your family that way? More secrets hidden over years gone by? Will you truly repent before you die? Well, forgiveness to you isn't mine to give After all your crimes do you really want to live With the consequences of what you've done? You blame it on trauma from carrying a gun? But you beat your wife and you beat your kid There's just no excuse for what you did You hide behind your public face Little man, you're a disgrace You thought that this was buried in the past But karma's a ***** and she's catching you fast For the people you pretend to have been your brothers Here's the kicker pal, some of us are mothers Here comes the reckoning for what you've done For the torture you visited upon your son So don't blame the job for what you did Newsflash - a warrior doesn't hit kids!
Abusers hide behind all kinds of excuses for their violence but there's really no excuse. Applies equally to men and women. Apologies to anyone this may resonate with a little too much
