"Help Me Up"

[SEALK]

This is one of my old songs, just looking for some imput.

“Help Me Up”

An everyday fight happens every night

That starts with push that’s followed by a right

Back hand just to prove that he’s the big man

When it comes to feelings he doesn’t give a damn

His face glows bright red in the furry

He swings with his left and right like a swimmer in a hurry

But this isn’t water taking a beating it’s a girl

By a man who won’t let her have her own world

In her own home she lives by his rules

She’s not alone many women have married these fools

Her face is swollen and her man never cares

She tells the people at work that she fell down the stairs

And at the end of the day she runs back to his arms

And doesn’t realize that she runs back to his harm

She tries to call a truce but it is no use

Cause her man don’t understand that this is abuse

Chorus: 2X

This girl does not wanna go home

And things right now have gotten out of control

He speaks to her in a violent tone

He can own what he can, but not her soul

Get yourself up and get yourself out

He threw you by your hair

He wants to knock you out like a title bout

About you he doesn’t care

One hour later she cries and tries not to

He hates the sound so he starts with round two

He begins to yell and again his face is red

“Why are you crying? Didn’t you hear what I said?”

He shoves her into a wall and she instantly falls

Now she can’t see straight and on the floor she crawls

Cause she’s dizzy and has all those tears in her eyes

He screams out questions and gets no replies

He says, “Answer me!” When she cannot speak

She can’t rise to her feet cause she feels to weak

He sits down on the couch and gives her a rest

He thinks to himself that what he did was messed

Up, ****ed up, and extremely violent

He says “baby come here” and she remains silent

He say’s it’s fine, it’s okay you’re aloud”

And still no response, “Get over here now!”

Chorus: 1X

This girl does not wanna go home

And things right now have gotten out of control

He speaks to her in a violent tone

He can own what he can, but not her soul

Get yourself up and get yourself out

He threw you by your hair

He wants to knock you out like a title bout

About you he doesn’t care

A whole new night and she came home late

Back from work the whole day didn’t go so great

But it’s to late her man doesn’t hesitate to paint the walls

With dents from her falls

It’s crazy the way he acts with the fire in his eyes

He assumes that every word his wife says are lies

She walks in and says “hunny calm down sorry I’m late

I am dizzy work was busy and I’m not feeling great

I just wanna sit down and catch up on my reading”

He says “yeah right, you were prolly out cheating!”

Under her breath she say she wishes she were a widow

And without her knowledge he closes the curtain on the window

He walks up, back hands her right in the face

By doing this he feels that he’ll put her in her place

She falls to the floor and then he sits on top

Then he smacks with his left and right and then he just wont stop

Many screams for help and she pleads to him to let go

He demands for her to be quiet so he grabs her by the throat

Her face goes red then straight to dark blue

And his face is bright red and now his fingers go white too

Both hands on her throat he shakes her and bangs her head against the marble tile

She stops fighting it and it takes him a long while

To realize that there are no more cries

And there she lies, dead people don’t cry
