Just a Boy

I got smacked again
Behind the door
I can barely see
Blood on the floor
I hear mama shriek
My grammy's sobbing
She's screaming stop it
He's not stopping

What did I do this time?
I just love to laugh and smile
You don't even want me to shine
You yell and scream and make us cry

He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He don't know any better
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He don't know any better

You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better

Teacher came to me
Asked about my eye
Told her I'm fine
I fell
If I told the truth
I would be doomed
Demons at school
Satan's at home

What did I do this time?
I used to love to laugh and smile
And now I beat myself up
My brain is telling me I'm never good enough

He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He don't know any better
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He don't know any better

You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better

What did I do this time?
I used to laugh and smile
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him

You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't love him
You don't know any better

He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
He's just a boy
You hit him
Demons at school
Satan's at home
