Just to make you Proud

I know I'm not the best nor the brightest
But all I want to do is make you proud
Though I can't quite figure out why

You showed me nothing but the worst
As a child
You nearly left me in a hearse

You took off
To find yourself with another man
And left me in his hands

My father was worse
Because of the distrust
The beatings just got even worst

Yeah, you got me later
With the cops and all
But that's when a new hell began that fall

Your new husband didn't beat me at all
He hugged me and told me that he loved me
You really know how to pick them ma

And late at night while you were asleep
He would creep. Creep into my room
Where I wish I was fast asleep

Kissing me gently
Creasing me all over
I felt so dirty as I weeped.

As I told you about
What was unfolding
You just scolded me

Calling me a liar
You started to conspire
On what I should tell C.P.S upon their arrival.

To protect my sister
From it all
I stood up and became a liar

As I started to say
What you wanted me to say
I began to pray

Dear God I thought
Save me from this mistake
And take my fears away

God must have been out that day
Because the days that followed
Brought nothing but pain

And although I felt so bad
I somehow felt somewhat glad
Just to make you proud

[PLZ RATE AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK AND I'LL DO THE SAME]
