Scared

You cussed me out when I thought I'd pass out
I was scared
I cried for help 'cause I needed someone
To be there

You pushed me down whenever I got up
I learned my place
I didn't wanna stay, you wanted me away
You said it to my face

Videotaped and humiliated
I was scared
I told my friends it was complicated
To be there

Sometimes I wish you knew (you knew)
How you've done me wrong (hah)
But I won't tell the truth (the truth)
I don't want you to know

I mourned my peace and I prepared my toil
I set my goals
I tried to hold it in and my blood would boil
I had no control

Though the shame still comes by
'Till the day that I die
I won't punish you like you punished me, baby
You will live in ignorance
I will come to your defense

But sometimes I wish you knew (you knew)
How you've done me wrong (hah)
And I won't tell the truth (the truth)
You don't need to know

(Uh) it's not that I don't have the nerve
(Uh) it's just not something that you deserve
*Struggles* Uh, ah, uh, hah! Uh, ah, uh, hah!

Sometimes I wish you knew (the truth)
What's become of me (hey yeah)
It traces back to you (to you)
But you should be happy (huh)
Happy, yeah
