Seal my lips shut like a zipper;

"Shut up stupid kid!",
Never forgetting what you did,
That your "God" would sure forbid,
Don't you roll my sleeves up, it's where my bruises are hid,
Don't look at my thighs, my arms, they're blue, it's where he likes to hit.

Can't you see the way he's feared?
Cause he's never been defeated,
Cause every sane one knows that he's strong and he's skilled,
Like the men he's almost killed.
