I Got You
Hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you
Hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you - hey sis
I never understood the reason for hurting girls
When the only way that you got here is she brought you in this world
Ok, maybe she didn't – but someone did
And those tears you see - come from somebody's kid
How can you justify robbing her of her innocence
Then every Sunday go to church and shout about deliverance
She's shivering – cause she knows the Mama's working late
Cause lately those been the long nights she's grown to hate
Too young to understand the things that you discuss
She's a victim of your lies – as you lie on top of her
Can't take the weight of a man
She can't breathe as she's wheezing
She's needing a reason for all this mistreating
Mama, was I really being that bad
There's something I want to say – but I don't want you to get mad
I promise I'll clean my room and I'll do better when in class
Just please don't let the mean man back – I GOT YOU
I swear that things will never be the same
I'll never let that man put his hands on you again
And if you cry – he won't be the reason why
Tonight you can close your eyes – I GOT YOU
I swear that things will never be the same
I'll never let that man put his hands on you again
And if you cry – he won't be the reason why
Tonight you can close your eyes – I GOT YOU
I see you Mama - I got you - I see you Mama - I got you - I see you Mama - I got you - I see you Mama
Raising your hand and you striking her again
Only reason that you can is cause you know you're not a man
Look in her eyes – you can see that she's deprived
Of the love – of a man – that cares – for his wife
She wants to leave him – she's tired of the beatings
His words leave her with deep scars - but no one sees them
She prays to God – I know that I said I'd love him
But my daughter's acting strange and I don't know if I can trust him
And he keeps hitting my son – even after we both discussed it
And this makeup can't hide the fact that I got an abusive husband
Please Lord – I'm down on my knees
I'll do anything – just give me peace – I GOT YOU
I swear that things will never be the same
I'll never let that man put his hands on you again
And if you cry – he won't be the reason why
Tonight you can close your eyes – I GOT YOU
I swear that things will never be the same
I'll never let that man put his hands on you again
And if you cry – he won't be the reason why
Tonight you can close your eyes – I GOT YOU
I GOT YOU
Hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you - hey sis I got you - hey sis
I never understood the reason for hurting girls
