How often?
Are you gonna keep defending him?
When it's him giving you blackeyes and broken noses.
You can't keep blaming it on walking into cabinets.
Let alone a door.

How often?
Are you gonna be afraid?
That anything you say.
Just might tick him off.

A insecure man seeks this control.
Maybe because he has none at all.
So telling you when to speak.
When to walk or simply to move.
Give him this false sense of worthy.
That without him.
You can't accomplish too much.

So, how often?
Are you gonna tolerate this crime?

In truth.
You can't really hide.
We see people trying this.
And seems to end up dying.

Many men to this day is serving time.
For which they should.

No one should contol another.
So make a decision about yourself.
