Born into Abuse

My daughter holds back the bill
As I hope, pray to God
That another child will bless
Those meaningless lives
That another child will be born
Into abuse

And I who gets the abortion
And you stay traumatized
And I who get to be a mother
And I who remain
And I who remain childless

In fear of what's wrong
In fear of this story
Of being a child
What I've grown
I know it's tired
In fear that no matter what
Things will not get better
In fear that the cycle
Will not stop here
