Truth Unsilenced, Pt. 1
This is nothing but the truth
Ill no longer be silenced
If they didnt want it out there, they shouldnt have done it
Cause where were they when I needed protection?
Yeah yeah
The pen is shaking in my hand as I punch my notebook
I just want to die
Why do they hate me?
Why do they treat me this way?
Does no one else see this?
Im a slave, not a kid
Ive wiped this table 40 fucking times
Yet she swears she still finds grime
Do it again!
The right way this time!
After that on your hands and make sure the floor is clean
My feet hurt so bad when my braces are off
Please, I just want to go to sleep
Im so tired
But its not good enough
Clean! Clean! Clean!
Before bed, lemme see your teeth
Nope, go brush again
Eighteen times it took
Before she let me go to sleep
This is nothing but the truth
Ill no longer be silenced
If they didnt want it out there, they shouldnt have done it
Cause where were they when I needed protection?
Yeah yeah
This is nothing but the truth
Ill no longer be silenced
If they didnt want it out there, they shouldnt have done it
Cause where were they when I needed protection?
Yeah yeah
One time, I got invited to a birthday party, can I go?
Yes
Thank you, I have a friend
But 2 days later I got beat and wet my bed
She gave me the phone and said
Tell her you cant go cause your pissed your pants
Tell your friend so she can tell your class
As if I wasnt already the laugh
As I got older, I joined a basketball team
For cripples only
Were you in the seats?
Where are you guys?
Im looking for you, Im trying to see
Coach says Im good
Im in the starting lineup for my first playoff game
I wanna make you proud
You never did show up to any
But you went to everything for your real kid
Dont you know youll never be loved bc youre not my real blood?
Oh how that replays in my mind
You were just so unkind
I tried everything to win your love
I did pretty good in all my classes
But my English teachers always bragged
My grammar, book reports, poems
And the spelling bees I consistently won
Can we put it on the fridge? It doesnt count, youre in special Ed
Please just stop with your words
Last night you beat me
But these words hurt way worse
This is nothing but the truth
Ill no longer be silenced
If they didnt want it out there, they shouldnt have done it
Cause where were they when I needed protection?
Yeah yeah
This is nothing but the truth
Ill no longer be silenced
If they didnt want it out there, they shouldnt have done it
Cause where were they when I needed protection?
Ill no longer be silenced
If they didnt want it out there, they shouldnt have done it
Cause where were they when I needed protection?
Yeah yeah
