I use to take it
I use to take it lightly,
when you pushed me down and I couldnt get up.
You dont like it when your dad screams
or when he hits your mom because he is angry.
I thought you were just a mean person
but everytime you hit me I saw a piece of you.
I no longer take it lightly,
when you get pushed down
I lend my hand to help you even when
you dont understand.
You took it lightly, the way I helped you with homework
and that time I called you friend
Thats when you stopped taking it lightly.
you said I changed from before but in reality it was
you.
