The smile you see on my face is just something to keep you from not wondering. Not wondering what happens behind close doors. Not wondering what happens when you sleep safe and I am to scared to. Not wondering why is she so sad. Not wondering how does she live like that. Not wondering why he beats or why she yells or why or why "daddys little girl" is living in hell.

My inspiration was my past. What I been through and how it sucked. I just hope some peoples know every smile is not real.
