your inner child has something to say
you don't allow her to talk, you don't
let her play, you take all her toys away
she can't hopscotch, you take all her chalk
you're depressed, she's under stress
you don't eat, she can't sleep
she's the reason why, you don't know
why you do the things you do
she trying to get your attention
you blame her, she blames you
you're not the only one, whose
been hurt, she's in pain too
crying over constant loneliness
missing toxic relationships
meanwhile your inner child's
suffering abandonment
went deep within had to fight
for my life, had a pen in my hand
my inner child was holding a knife
to my throat, she wrote a grievance
about what comes between us
"don't kill me, you need me"
here's your blanky and binky
she's a problem child, I got a lot
of problems to solve, on the job
trying to calm her down
she spit out the pacifier
playing with matches
always starting fires
I pick it up and give it back
bout to blow my stack
thanks to anger management
I'm holding back
she got tough love
so I love hard
don't you think, your inner child
has something to say...
