STEEMIT OPEN MIC WEEK 63 - "Pieces"(original song)

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Steemians!!! I'm back to share my personal story with you in this original song. Hope to touch someone out there <3

Lyrics:
I feel like ever since the day my mother gave birth, my only purpose in this world's to be the a motherless jerk
Then they expect me to be unscathed from the hurt, deprived of any worth, matter fact I was told I was the worst...
out of her 4 kids but how? when the first...was a girl who took a liking to girls and shattered all Mom's dreams for her curves, then there was the second kid...intrigued by the curb
Never could stay clean from the work, would buy our mother a bunch of nice things but then turn and search..
between the couch for the change from her purse she’d have to hide …i was a teeny squirt seeing po-lice run through our crib chasin my brother, then came the third..
That was Momma's beauty queen of the herd..
Always saying she looks just like me when younger..
She was her favourite til that teen left to be with a man much older than her

I drop my cover to show u who I am
These are the pieces I got left
I'm opening my heart to let you in
These are the pieces I've got left
Hope u can take something from that

Now that I'd grown, it was time to live life on my own, I had to make choices with a skewed view of love
First thing I did was binge to fill the hole in my soul..never was enough tho, had to find the next dose
My need to be cared for caused me to create situations just like the ones I'd left home
Wasn't long before resent showed, and only the way that I could keep strong was if I went cold
Like a ticking time bomb, the pain they caused was like an alarm. I was set to self-destruct so they could say they played no part
As much as they felt me up, now how are they the ones that stand their guard? How could u do this to me? Oh my god! What the fuck did I ever do to u to make u keep on pushing me away?
What was I supposed to do when you ain't even see the pain?
You ain't even see the pain

I drop my cover to show u who I am
These are the pieces I got left
I'm opening my heart to let you in
These are the pieces I've got left
Hope u can take something from that
