In My Heart

Somebody tell me why Somebody tell me why Why I gotta feel this pain Somebody tell me why Why Mom and Dad Why they gotta stay fighting When they gotta put they hands on me Lord I turn to ya writings I only get by Cause I know that I have you in my heart I don't know why Why it always be like this Drama constantly and dad resorting to his fist And mom nitpicking always seem to start a fight Dad just can't let it go He always gotta be right Dad Why you gotta turn to the bottle Can you not focus on us Liquors always been your idol When it seems to be to much I hear the threats that one gone leave em All I ever wonder is Who gone take me wit em But I doubt it ever happens Always felt like an afterthought Except for when ya need a release and hit me in a hidden spot Have you ever once Thought about your own child About his needs and his wants I swear its been a long while Now im hiding in this closet and i'm trying to escape All the hurt and all the pain Arguing and the hate Lord help me make it through It's been a long rough night I'll keep my eyes on you Know you'll turn the dark to the light Somebody tell me why Somebody tell me why Why I gotta feel this pain Somebody tell me why Why Mom and Dad Why they gotta stay fighting When they gotta put they hands on me Lord I turn to ya writings I only get by Cause I know that I have you in my heart I don't know why Why I always open up Cause every time I do It's like that opening gets cut Betrayed is how I feel Who I trust with these issues When Home's a living hell No-one at school plays with you Teachers think I'm a bad kid Don't know what I've been dealt Don't know what it's like to be beat on By the ones that gave ya breath How ya press forward When pain comes without a warning So I long for night time Cause joy comes in the morning Lord I need you more Than I ever have before Because I hear a knock knock Lord its CPS at my door They wanna take me And I know i'll be in good hands But I don't wanna leave home Lord I trust in your plan So take this hurt and all my pain Lord mend my heart And do the same for my parents Lord give us a new start My rough night is looking up It's better days ahead It's all because of you I'm alive not dead Somebody tell me why Somebody tell me why Why I gotta feel this pain Somebody tell me why Why Mom and Dad Why they gotta stay fighting When they gotta put they hands on me Lord I turn to ya writings I only get by Cause I know that I have you in my heart
