Mother

He would hold you by the hand in front of everyone
He would make you say there was nothing going on
He would beat you up and down when there is nobody
To help you from this ground when you are down
He would say go get your father or your brother
By the time they came he was no where to be found
How dare you put your hands on my mother
Your a man in no man's land
Mother Just stop your crying for one more day
I'l say my prayers and it will go away
Mother Just stop your crying for one more day
I'l say my prayers and it will go away
He would make you hide your scars with your makeup
As the tears would fall we would see you start to move
As he hit you in the arms to make you wake up
Inside his mind was more than confused
He would run out of our garden and call the neighbors
You'd see there curtains close before his done
He made statements lies and told all of the papers
He done nothing wrong and you were number one
Mother Just stop your crying for one more day
I'l say my prayers and it will go away
Mother Just stop your crying for one more day
I'l say my prayers and it will go away
