Run Run Run

Keep on beating them down

What could make you so mad

To beat your own children black and blue



Your time will come

When the beat downs turn to you

You call yourself a man

Your children black and blue

Once again, black and blue

Once again, black and blue



Run Run Run

Why don't you walk away

Abusive husbands

A childhood lost betrayed



Run Run Run

The old man is drunk again

From the hand that feeds

It turns into a fist



The nightmares are our memories

The broken homes and noses that bleed

Afraid to stay nowhere to turn

Domestic violence tragedies



Run Run Run

Why don't you walk away

Abusive husbands

A childhood lost betrayed



Run Run Run

Why don't you walk away

You need to make a choice

Because things will never change



I ask the mothers

Why dont you walk away

Abusive husbands

A childhood lost betrayed



The nightmares are our memories

The broken homes and noses that bleed

Afraid to stay nowhere to turn

Domestic violence tragedies



Run Run Run

Keep on beating them down

What could make you so mad

To beat your own children?
