ORIGINAL
LYRICS Verse 1: My dad was abusive My mother turned a blind eye She
knew I was hurting But she didn’t take a stand by my side I wish I
knew how my life Was gonna end up then If I could travel back in
time I’d tell myself self you’ll be fine Hook 1: I’d give em hope
I’d make him smile I’d keep him company Just for a little awhile
I’d mend his wounds and I’d free his soul Yo I’d call his dad A
fuckin’ fat asshole Yo I’d hit em back I’d break his fuckin’ nose
Cause nobody fucks with me no more I’d cut em down just like he did
me I wouldn’t offer the man no fuckin’ sympathy Chorus 1: And now
my life’s better And now that doesn’t matter Cause I’m no longer
battered And my daughter don’t get hit I wont let her Verse 2: My
boyfriend was abusive And he didn’t treat me right He was such a
druggie He didn’t know how to prioritize I barely ever seen him And
when I did all we did was fight If I could erase what I felt I’d
have realized that I’d be fine Hook 2: I’d give em hope I’d make
him smile I’d keep him company Just for a little awhile Yo I’d mend
his wounds and I’d free his soul I’d call his fuckin’ man A
pill-poppin’ ho Yo I’d hit em back I’d break that fuckers nose
Cause nobody fucks with me no more Yo I’d cut em down just like he
did me I wouldn’t offer the fuck no fuckin’ sympathy Chorus 2: And
now my life’s better And now that doesn’t matter Cause I’m no
longer battered My boyfriends don’t get hit ever Chorus 1: And now
my life’s better And now that doesn’t matter Cause I’m no longer
battered My daughter don’t get hit I wont let her Chorus 2: And now
my life’s better And now that doesn’t matter Cause I’m no longer
battered My boyfriends don’t get hit ever
