Lost my innocence too young
And it wasn't even my choice
So I learned to write and to use my voice
To sing
Away the tears that it brings and I look up to the sky and ask
"Lord why me?"
I fell in love with a man
Loved him more than I loved myself... You know
He treated me bad
He made me feel low
He gave me a seed but i couldn't watch him grow kuz
He went up to heaven...he would have been seven
Don't know why that had to be..
Dear Lord..why me?
Along came a who had me fooled with his humor and game
He beat me up so bad that I still haven't healed from tha pain
He blamed it on liquor
I still have tha picture
But yet he walks free..
Dear Lord.. Why me?
I went nights with no food
Had nothing for myself at all
Had to roll up my sleeves and give blood
While barely standing tall
I used to pass out...I was dizzy and faint
But I kept it to myself kuz my pride said, "You ain't!
Gonna tell nobody a thing
Kuz it's gonna bring
Only pity and shame!"
When I look at my name...
It spells Melody
My name means a song
He musta named me wrong
It's nothing pretty at all
About me but my face
But it's a reason I'm here... Still walkin roun this place
That we call Earth...
Kuz from tha moment of my birth...
He mapped out his plan
It kinda makes me sad
But I'm still standing Strong
While I'm writing this poem....
Kuz this is who I be

So no longer do I ask, "Dear Lord... Why Me?"
