He comes home late from work, expects dinner to be served, a big steak cause
real men need meat, has two kids already, a third one on the way and a grown man
who takes her for granted

(So many dreams)
So much potential settled for traditional security


Life's a scary game to play where men set the rules
And men possess all the $$#ets


Hits her heart then comes crawling back with tears in his eyes to apologize

She looks in the mirror

A black eye stares back at her
Wishing she hadn't been so afraid
To stand on her own but it's never to late to take control of her life


Might be a scary game to play where men set the rules
And men possess all the $$#ets but girls kick $$# too
