I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the caged bird sings
Momma had me at a early age
Dropped out of high school
In order to get paid
No father in my in life
The state took me away
I was only 3 years old
And seen my mother in a cage
I Fell in love with a nigga up in high school
Momma tried to warn me
Tell me that I'm a fool
Now pregnant with his baby and it ain't cool
Blocking jail calls but I need to call you
Abused as a child
My parents took my smile
They didn't love me then
Why would they love me now
I ran away from home
So I can be alone
The police picked me up
But I did nothing wrong
My got parents got a divorced
When I was Just little a girl
So I did not have a voice
And I turned to the streets
I was pure as a leaf
Became a drug addict
Now my family hates me
I grew up in the streets
Had to sell drugs
Unless I didn't eat
Momma a drug addict
Daddy 6 feet deep
I got little sisters and brothers that's depending on me
Well I was up in my bed
Doors opened up and a man grab my leg
Covered up my mouth
Lifted up my dress
Forced me in his arms and proceeded to sex
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the
I know why the caged bird sings
I know why the
I know why the caged bird sings
