Story Behind The Song

This is the true story of my escape from my abusive husband of 7 years. Living in Atlanta Ga., after 3 years of marriage my husband begins to physically abuse me and 6 of my 9 children. By the 4th year he has started molesting my oldest daughter who was 12. When he began to molest my baby that was when my oldest daughter told on him. He was physically abusive to us all during those times. When I escaped from him after 7 years of marriage, I had to hide undergroung for a year and then I moved across the country to Az. Once free I wrote this story.

Lyrics

DONT HURT MY CHILDREN

He swore he loved them as his own;
made him think of his inner chid.
Innocent, jumpin' fences, skippin' stones
like long ago when he was free and wild.

He told everyone they were his flesh and blood;
took care the bills worries and ills.
A secret mission of lust and abuse
fronted his deal with the devil to kill!

He finally had his day of judgement before a jury of his peers
He hid his anger, hate undercover, behind his hidden jeers.
Felt victory in his fate as he proclaimed his innocense;
exempt from a wake of destruction he caused at...
their expense!

Judge said "Set him free, so he can take care his family!"
His death promise; instead, forced her and her shorties to flee.
Underground she ran into the dark of the night...
to another State, a new life...
She moved right out of his sight!

She now sleeps peacefully in the dark where nightmares
used to embark..
The ugly shadow sleeps in a coma(tose) state;
she overcomes her hate.
She knows one day he'll end like his start
as she and her "shorties" romp in the park.
No longer in her thoughts...best leave it to
THE MASTER
to decide his fate!
