6

My feet couldnt reach the pedals

So my father got on his knees

He used his hands to press the pedals

At the bottom of the Hammond B3

Six years old and I lied about the school grades

I told my momma that my daddy already
reprimanded me

And when my father found out he beat me
with a belt of leather

Until my arms bled open and it caused my back to bleed

So as a growing young man I act like a six year old

I act like a little ass boy

And Im protective of all my toys
Cause theyre the only things that never judge me

Thats why I act like a six year old

Full of imagination and wonder,
Im still afraid of falling under

Six years old and Im staring at a movie screen

In a dark sanctuary shaking watching image of the beast

Repeated nigh******ares cant even sleep at 23

Thanks a lot dad now Im stuck with ****** PTSD

Now my relation*** ***ps suffer and I cant live a normal life

But your philosophies daddy said
Its alright to scare off to Christ,

So when Im selfish and needy or I act like a spoiled brat

Just trying to function normally
with a mother playing mom or dad.

I always felt like the world hated me although I do my best,

Like Im the only best friend
People kind of wish they never had
Six years old

Im a little ass boy

And Im protective of my toys
Theyre the only things that never judge me

I'm a six year old full of imagination

Im protective of my toys cause they never judge me

Because they never judge me

And Im still afraid of going under
