IT WASN’T BECAUSE
It wasn’t because of the cute way she walked
It wasn’t because the sweet way she talked
It wasn’t because of her big beautiful eyes
It wasn’t because I gave her candy and told her lies
It wasn’t because I didn’t feel love at all
It wasn’t because of my problems or my back was against the wall
It wasn’t because I could sneak in her room at night
It wasn’t because I did things to her that wasn’t right
It wasn’t because her mother couldn’t hear her cries as she slept
It wasn’t because I threaten her, if our secret she had not kept
It may because that when I was small, it’s the same things my parent would do
But in today’s world people would say a mother wouldn’t do that to you
It may because many nights she came in my room and wouldn’t let me be
But I want you to know that it can happen to you just like it happen to me
It may because I’m telling you to check on your kids at night
You may save them from having this demon I have to fight
Now they say its okay for me to tell
But, this is the only way I can without going to jail
