Feeling You

by Joe Moore   Jul 24, 2004


My girl was on the phone
sounding worried
Cause her girlfriend
Situation was scary

giving out advice
About the boyfriend
said She needs to
Leave him as fast as she can

But she won't
Cause she knows he'll kill her
So she stays and
Takes what he gives her

I even heard he took
Her money too
Now my girl wants
To know what we can do

So I tell her
that business Ain't yours
Your girl's gotta find
her own cures

First she gotta
Make up Her mind
Is she gonna stay
And keep wasting time

Is she gonna stay
And keep living that way
When she knows he's gonna
Beat her everyday

I hate you're feeling frustration
About your girls situation
You think her stories don't phase me
But they do
But I'm really more worried about you

I feel for your girl and her problems
If it were up to me I'd solve them
But she's living her life on her terms
And you're happiness is my concern

a week passes and I'm
watching the news
as my girl models her
Brand new shoes

when we heard
from the news alert
that a girl was found
buried 2 ft. in the dirt

she was hurt
but she wasn't dead
she was raped and had
bag on her head

How did she live
And didn't suffocate
How did she live
Through the terrible rape
how did she breathe
Through the dirt and leaves
With a Kroger sack on her face

that changed my girls attitude
put her in this somber mood
thought she better call her friend
just check and see if she was in
make sure they haven't started a feud

phone rang and rang
for a minute or more
so my girl hung up
and ran out the door

I hate you're feeling frustration
About your girls situation
You think her stories don't phase me
But they do
But I'm really more worried about you

I feel for your girl and her problems
If it were up to me I'd solve them
But she's living her life on her terms
And you're happiness is my concern

Well I had to follow
Cause she broke to quick
So I grabbed her bag
And I grabbed my shit

Flying to her friends
Like a NASCAR race
We arrived and police had
Taped off the place

My girl ran to the tape
To view the scene
almost fainted at the site
Of such horrible things

the boyfriend was laid
Dead in the grass
she Blew buckshot through
Him and the glass

Double barrel Shotgun
Double barrel blast
Double barrel solution
To him kicking her ass

My girl so was hurt
At the outcome
Cause she knew where
The anger had come from
And in a moment of rage
love changed it's shade
Now he rests in another kingdom

I hate you're feeling frustration
About your girls situation
You think her stories don't phase me
But they do
But I'm really more worried about you

I feel for your girl and her problems
If it were up to me I'd solve them
But she's living her life on her terms
And you're happiness is my concern

but these are the lessons we learn
when happiness is your last concern
these are the lessons we learn
when denial is the candle you burn
