12 Years old, she had ribbons in her hair Dancin through the world like she ain't really have a care Bike rides with her friends, jump rope til the end of the day But when that light comes on she knew That it was time to go home but tonight was so different She ain't seem to walk alone The evening seemed much darker than the others All she wanna do is get back safely to her mother Started hearing footsteps from behind her Heart started beating, but her memory would guide her She knew that there's a short cut through the park But everybody knows never go when it's dark She ain't care, young girl real scared All she thought about was home and the quickest way there And that's the night all she knew was gon change When a man thrice her age, came and ripped out a page What did you do to my innocence I thought I was innocent (What did you do) What did you do to my innocence I thought I was innocent (I thought I was innocent) What did you do to my innocence I thought I was innocent (I thought I was innocent) What did you do to my innocence Thought I was innocent What did you do What did you do 22, 10 years past You would think it never happened cuz nobody ever asked Working nights for a pimp down the road All she tryna do is live, you know how the story goes They ain't know what's gone on in the last year Hittin rock bottom sparked a shift in the gears Late night sippin had her trippin in the streets Heavily medicated OD'in feelin weak This is it, I'm done with this shhh... I'm tired of livin life Hell drippin from her lips Eyes rolling back, fading out quickly Body going numb but somehow there was shifting She remembered the words of her neighbour though Kids or these drugs cuz you can't have both Fight back on and so she fell to her knees Saying God if you real, Ima need you to come get me What did you do to my innocence (What did you do) I thought I was innocent (I thought I was innocent) What did you do No writing on the wall, or fireworks going wild Just a still small voice, saying you are my child Little girl was now a lady and she had to make choice For far too long the pain silenced her voice But she's crying out (I thought I was innocent) Hard to let go, but she still tried to let it out (What did you do) Flashbacks every now and then Seeking help for herself, promised she ain't ever given in She loves God and loves people though she been hurt And now her story's freeing women from the dirt The gutter that often swallows up these good mothers Dedicate this whole song to women hidin under covers Steady praying angels hover, as they shutter In the homes with abusive lovers, sometimes I wonder What can I do as a man? Cuz I don't understand how this lady could ever trust again I got issues, ut she got scars way deeper than my sinew Lemme air it out, life ain't just game for play it out But there's a loser and victor, time to wear em out So I'm binding every doubt inside your head The enemy goes berserk, every time we come to pray him out Hands folded like hospital bed blankets for the ladies who ain't make it out Hold my jacket look, let me prophesy See I can see the king on the throne, fire in his eyes And it's no surprise No more crying no more pain, shawty leave the noose Put down the blade I ain't ready to put roses on your grave I'm tellin you that He saves Don't matter what you been through Never let a liar tell you what is true You're past doesn't have to be your future Shalom
