love her - don't hit her

RAIK

new song today on my player
written after finding out some horrible news from a friend about her rape and DV. i’m sick and tired of men thinking women are rag dolls to be tossed around.

love her - don’t hit her

why do you think
you’re the king behind closed doors
don’t act on anger’s glow
i’m here to let you know
you never hit her

they are theirs
they don’t belong to us
but some guys just don’t see
their own hypocrisy

you gotta love her don’t hit her

how can you strike
at the one you’re supposed to love
how can you raise your hand and then
sleep at night

i don’t understand
how you could hurt the one who loves you
that isn’t right or fair
is that a man
or a scared little boy

women make our world
the reason we exist
if you can’t see that’s true
then there’s something wrong with you

love her don’t hit her

you’ve gotta know
she’s got the right to go
and so if she’s had enough
you have no right to get rough

gotta let her go x few

she doesn’t belong to you
