Compelled Misogyny

Every day life of domestic disturbance
Behind closed curtains a senseless violence
Open up the window of opportunities
And seize every chance you can to leave
Just how many times have you wanted to die
In shame of the bruises and broken bones
You’ve tried to hide and swallow your pride
But you cannot mend this broken home
How many times are you going to try
Before you’re starting to realize
There’s no hope and no escape
Why do you forgive and forget
Just to keep living a life of lies
The sickness is eating away, endlessly
Compelled into misogyny, no hope, no escape
You’re not the one to take on the blame
Covering your bruised face in shame
How much more are you willing to take
Until you see you’ve put your life at stake
Open up your blood shut eyes
Will you finally come to realize
Taught well by his father, showed lessons on the mother
On and on passed down through the generations
Can’t you see? it’s not too late to make your escape
How can you stand these mandatory nightly rapes?
Imprisoned in this derogatory cell and a life of living hell
How much more can you endure, you’re so insecure
The sickness driven to insanity, endlessly
The symptom is eating away. compelled into misogyny
It’s not too late, you’re not bound to this hateful fate
