lyrics

She lies and says she’s in love with him
The hold he has on her breaking her spirit
A man holding on to a world he controls
To be his queen she becomes a prisoner in it
Too many women settling for the ones
With a fat wallet and yet a thin conscience
Outward suave faces and dapper attire
Inwardly corrupt and abusive in essence

Oh God, make me a better man
A man to stand above these evil ways
Oh God, make me a better man
A man who knows how to love
Oh God, make me a better man
A man who gives without needing to take
Oh God, make me a better man
Living free of these vindictive games

Can’t find a better man when all that’s going
Are scumbags thinking of only one thing
Themselves, their own pleasure, and nothing more
Bending others to their malevolent will
And it won’t change while we do nothing
While we take no steps to show the world
The way a woman is meant to be treated
They’re more than objects or a notch to be won
