"Courtney Coneely" lyrics
(Ojay got that juice)
I need you to understand, you took a part of me
You took away my trust and, man, you've ripped a part of me
I'll never understand why you took that spark in me
Remember when you held me down and stood on top of me?
Out of everyone to hurt, why you steady choosing me?
I was sposed to be protected, I was sposed to be your niece
He told me to be quiet and to never tell nobody
I had to be quiet while he took over my body
They tell y'all understand, well, what exactly does that mean?
Y'all ain't have to tell him "stop", y'all ain't have to cry and "please"
I was telling him it hurt while he was holding down my knees
I was sposed to be protected, why this happening to me
It was nights I couldn't sleep, was having thoughts about this nigga
How could you betray me? You was like a father figure
I don't wish nobody feel the pain they had and felt
I don't wish that- ugh, this life that I was dealt
And they tell me to be strong and put my feelings on the shelf
How the fuck I'ma be strong when I was hurt by someone close?
It was all because of you, now I'm afraid to be alone
But I gotta tighten up and let 'em know that it's okay
Even in them dark days, promise me you'll never break
If you ever been a victim, I'm- just know it ain't your fault
If you ever been a victim, I need to hear your voice
If you ever been a victim, can you just be the voice?
If you never talked about it, then talk about it now
'Cause you gotta let the world know, you gotta let your flaws show
And understand that, in life, we've been all broke
Yeah, my voice is strong, but it will work if we all strong
Learn to love yourself and be happy in your skin
Forgive, accept the past 'cause that's the only way you'll win
And I- you ever been the victim, just know it ain't your fault
And if you've been sexually abused, just know it ain't your fault, nah
It ain't your fault
I need you to understand, you took a part of me
You took away my trust and, man, you've ripped a part of me
I'll never understand why you took that spark in me
Remember when you held me down and stood on top of me?
Out of everyone to hurt, why you steady choosing me?
I was sposed to be protected, I was sposed to be your niece
He told me to be quiet and to never tell nobody
I had to be quiet while he took over my body
They tell y'all understand, well, what exactly does that mean?
Y'all ain't have to tell him "stop", y'all ain't have to cry and "please"
I was telling him it hurt while he was holding down my knees
I was sposed to be protected, why this happening to me
It was nights I couldn't sleep, was having thoughts about this nigga
How could you betray me? You was like a father figure
I don't wish nobody feel the pain they had and felt
I don't wish that- ugh, this life that I was dealt
And they tell me to be strong and put my feelings on the shelf
How the fuck I'ma be strong when I was hurt by someone close?
It was all because of you, now I'm afraid to be alone
But I gotta tighten up and let 'em know that it's okay
Even in them dark days, promise me you'll never break
If you ever been a victim, I'm- just know it ain't your fault
If you ever been a victim, I need to hear your voice
If you ever been a victim, can you just be the voice?
If you never talked about it, then talk about it now
'Cause you gotta let the world know, you gotta let your flaws show
And understand that, in life, we've been all broke
Yeah, my voice is strong, but it will work if we all strong
Learn to love yourself and be happy in your skin
Forgive, accept the past 'cause that's the only way you'll win
And I- you ever been the victim, just know it ain't your fault
And if you've been sexually abused, just know it ain't your fault, nah
It ain't your fault
