I don't respect myself because of you
I have trust issues because of you
I can't love because of you
I'm not happy because of you
I cried myself to sleep because of you
I catch on quicker now because of you
I warn other girls because of you
I learned a lot of lessons because of you
I learned a lot about myself because of you
I don't open up anymore because of you
I'm extra cautious because of you
I have a crazier past because of you
I have more stories to tell my daughter because of you

My kids will know about consequences because of you
My kids will know their mom is stronger because of you
My husband will be respectful because of you
My family will be closer to me because of you

Because of you, I know myself better
Because of you, my guard is up
Because of you, I know that family should come first
Because of you, I am a different person
