Seen Her Staring At Her Phone She Said I'm Having Problems At Home Said I Know What Your Going Through She Said No I Don't Think You Do Could Tell She Wanted Me To Go Away But Something Said No Auburn Stay I Said Just Tell Me What's On Your Mind She Said No I Don't Have The Time I Said Well Can't We At Least Pray Then She Turned Around To Say Growing Up Was Real Hard For Me Watching Daddy Beat Mommy Till She Bleeds I Was Young But I Still Stay By Her Side Now I Cry And I Pray To God But I Wonder Why Growing Up Was Real Hard For Me Watching Daddy Beat Mommy Till She Bleeds I Was Young But I Still Stay By Her Side Now I Cry And I Pray To God But I Wonder Why I said girl I had no clue She Said Yeah Well Now You Do I Watched Her As She Checked Her Hair She Said I Gotta Be Somewhere I Said Well Where You Headed To She Said Somewhere With This Dude I Met Him At The Club Last Night I don't really know him but he seemed right I Said Well What If He's Wrong I Don't Think You Should Be Alone She Said Don't Worry I Don't Trust No Man I Learned That From Living With My Dad I'm At My Mom's I'll Be Just Fine I'm Just Trying To Go And Get Mine I Looked At Her Like She Bumped Her Head Then She Turned Around And Said Growing Up Was Real Hard For Me [Phone Ringing] Hello?
