This is dedicated to women who have lost their lives as a result of one form of abuse or the other. To those still struggling in abusive relationships, one advice...open up your heart as well as your eyes..


There was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But she is not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for
But she fell in love with the wrong kind of man
He abused her love and treated her so bad
There was not enough education in her world
That could save the life of this little girl

How come, how long
Its not right, its so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake before it too late
Right now we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your eyes as well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help
She even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing Was wrong for as we can tell
That's what we'd like to tell ourselves
But no, it wasn't that way

So, she fell in love with the wrong kind of man
And she paid with her life for loving that man
So we cannot ignore, we must look for the signs
Maybe next time, we might save somebody's life

I, on occassion met that guy
He stirred up bad feelings deep inside
Something about him wasn't right
The way he proves himself a man
By beating his woman with his hands
Oh I wish she had seen the light.
How can someone like that call himself a man?
In reality, he is far more less than that.

We cannot ignore whenever we see the signs.
Because any kind of abuse God knows isn't right...
