VERBALLY ABUSED
Location
They say sticks and stones may break my bones, but your words can’t hurt me
Well, forget words, what about what’s going on physically?
Kids committing suicide cause they’re being bullied
Homeboys killing their own homies
Girls being abused by their man
When will this nonsense come to an end?
I am speaking from experience
Saw it all, been bullied since I was six
Since first grade, been taunted, been teased
All just because I was doing me
What’s a girl gotta do to be treated like an equal?
Be a baby mama? Please, I got enough to hustle with
Tried to ignore the words for 10 years
But now I’m home crying in a bed full of tears
Feel like I’m dying
Like I’ve been stabbed in the stomach
What am I supposed to do?
When I’m being verbally abused
Don’t wanna hurt myself
Don’t wanna kill myself
But what am I suppose to do?
What I ever do to you to make you do this to me?
Why are you spreading rumors about me?
Doing this and that, they don't even sound like me!
Bullying and hating ain’t the same thing
Haters hate on you about the goals you’re reaching
Bullies go to the pressuring point
Say yo mama some prostitute or yo daddy in the joint
This homie smoking crack
This chick sleeping with your man
Not even true, yet it hurts bad
Tried to ignore the words for 10 years
But now I’m home crying in a bed full of tears
Feel like I’m dying
Like I’ve been stabbed in the stomach
What am I supposed to do?
When I’m being verbally abused
I’m in my room, frightened and scared
Of what’s gonna happen next, surrounded by fear
Abusive boyfriends
Suicidal kids
Do you know that bullying could lead to this?
I’m sitting in this corner with tears in my eyes
I can’t even look in the mirror without feeling Imma die
Every word they attacked me with hit me real hard
It’s like my heart been murdered
Shot by a gun
Bullying's not a right
It’s a threat
Leading to someone’s death
Committing suicide, bullying causes this
We gotta stop the bullying now
Stop the bullying now
Right now!
Tried to ignore the words for 10 years
But now I’m home crying in a bed full of tears
Feel like I’m dying
Like I’ve been stabbed in the stomach
What am I supposed to do?
When I’m being verbally abused
