lyrics

3. END THE VIOLENCE

When we first met you were so sweet and kind to me
Before God and man you vowed to love and protect me
Then angry words caused violent reactions
In breaking my spirit you seemed to find satisfaction
Then one day I came to this conclusion
The life you created for me was an illusion
You only wanted to make me a slave
And make me believe that it’s my life you saved

CHORUS

This is the end of your violence
Not gonna sit in silence
X2

VERSE 2
You took my dreams and you dangled them in front of me
You kept me indebted to you so I’ll never be free
You took the land that our mother passed down to us
And then you rape it, how could you be so careless?
Manipulation was the tool you found
Controlling our eyes so we look to the ground
But I’m ready to take my head out of the sand
For human rights and equality I’ll stand

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I won’t be your, I won’t be your slave
I won’t be your, I won’t be your slave X2
