5 Lines tw: Sexual Assault by Eli Arbor Lyrics
[Act I]
What’s his name?
Please, why won’t you say it
I know he thinks this a game
Well I ain’t gon let him play it
I’m just--
I’m just tryna help
I’m tryna do this for you, no this ain’t just for myself
I’m tryna teach him a lesson like why you blaming yourself
Your health he violated so now his life’s on the shelf
Black hoodies, Black Timbs, Black ski mask
I'mma catch him in the dark
Run up as unseen as the shadow of death
I bet that he’ll be catching his breath
And if he try to scream that’s gon be his last one left
So please, tell me who he is and where he stay at
I'mma catch that bitch nigga where he lay at
Right where he say his prayers at
I'mma catch him in the dark
Scaring him where he safe at
I promise ill make it right
Stop following, please hang back
I’m ski masked up
I know that he’s gassed up
Bet he's bragging to his friends bout how he had that ass up
I don’t give a fuck what they said, he can’t do this
I'mma prove it
No please, I gotta do it
Cause I won’t let him escape his transgressions
I gotta send a message
I gotta go teach him a lesson
Your body is a temple he entered without your blessing
Divine retribution with what’s holy he’s messing
Just let me go
Stay here, just let her come and sit with you
Promise I’ll be back, but right now I got some shit to do
I can deal with him, I promise I'll be ok
Try to break for the door, but she won’t let me get away
I can deal with him, I promise ill be ok
Try to break for the door, but she begging me please stay
[Hook]
Cause I’m crying I’m scared and I don’t know what to do
I’m crying I’m scared and I don’t know what to do
I’m crying I’m scared and I don’t know what to do
If I can’t handle him, how can I take care of you
Cause you’re crying, you’re scared and you’re holding on tight
You’re crying, you’re scared and you’re holding on tight
You’re crying, you’re scared and you’re holding on tight
But you gotta let me go cause I gotta make this right
[Act II]
Sorry I got mad, this ain't about me
Can you tell me what you’re really feeling? Just tell me what you really need
Can I get you some water, can I get you some tea?
I don't know what to do to overcome this uncertainty
Should I give you some space, just tell me where should I be
Would you rather talk to a woman about it instead of me?
Talk to me baby, please dry your eyes
Or maybe cry a river if the waters will keep you alive
I know you feels like you feel like you died inside just a little bit
And it's gonna take a lot of time to try to heal from it
Oh, you can’t sleep? Then let me sit awake with you
No, please: just stay where you are, I’ll find you another tissue
Don’t have to say your issue, just know I’m here if you need me
You’re a book but now you’re closed to the reading
No James Brown and I don't know your feelings
You don't have to be ok now, that's the beauty and the curse about healing
It can only happen when we've been broken
It shouldn't have happened to you
But now you feel like your power is stolen
You’re not alone
[Outro]
