- Once upon a time. ..
- There was a little girl who liked to rhyme.
- Her vocabulary, from a young age, was impressive
- but her love of words was never fully accepted.
- Never gained respect, grew up in a house that was oppressive.
- She became depressed, feeling like an outcast.
- Why pursue such a silly, pointless craft?
- Regressing back to basic phonetics; she got the message.
- Accused of being "too sensitive," she was pathetic.
- Why couldn't she be more like her sister? Athletic.
- Forget poetry, little girl, you'll never get any credit.
- Soon you'll become apologetic for time wasted.
- You're a loser, face it. Even your own family hates it.
- But what they don't know is that you're using these words as an escape.
- So, tears stream down your face as you're imagining a better place.
- Just a typical day full of hatred you hear their voices raising.
- Screaming turns to crying, then nothing but silence.
- Her house was the perfect example of family violence.
- A safe haven turned into a negative environment; no guidance.
- Anger ran through their veins like a virus; but claimed loved was timeless.
- This is how she grew up, what she thought was fine;
- no wonder she should have been in an asylum by the age of nine.
- Her daddy was a mean alcoholic; her mom didn't have a spine.
- Between pill poppin' and recreational drugs, she witnessed the decline.
