She was a princess born into a family of criminals
Of sick individuals that use her body as a pillow
So, her pillow's filled with tears
And her heart's filled with fear
She watches the clock every night
Waiting for this man to appear
How could a father have sex with his daughter?
It's hard to swallow, but this is all she's known
Ever since she came off the bottle
She's only nine years old and feels dead inside
Been trained to think that it's her fault
'Cause when she talks, they say she lies
It was her creative imagination
But what kind of child would picture
A father penetrating her sacred place?
She's at the age she should feel free like a butterfly
Instead, she's learning about the birds and the bees
With a man who beats his wife every night
Just like she thought, 1:15 on the dot
He locks the lock, she doesn't talk as they descend
Their flight to a place where demons walk
This is hell on earth, and she knows that she can see it
She looks into his face, and she just can't believe it
This isn't him, she tells herself
He's been possessed by someone sick
This was her only creative imagination as a kid
He says he loves her as he does it
And she wonders what this means
If this is love, then I want hate
'Cause this love brings me bad dreams
She smells the cigarettes and juniper
Beneath her scraped off lonely, cheap skin
And it seems that he's turned on
Even more when she screams
Now she's 11 years old and starting to cut on herself
Crying, bleeding tears, begging someone, anyone, for help
No response until the day that he died of cancer
Now she thinks her prayers been answered
But her brain's still scrambled
So she's grown up with a liquor license
And it's okay to hit it
World, say hello to your neighborhood stripper
She was a princess, could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she's stripping on the pole
To get money, energy, strength
She was a princess, could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she's stripping on the pole
To get money, energy, strength
She was a princess, could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she's stripping on the pole
To get money, energy, strength
She was a princess
As soon as she turned 18, she left the house
Telling herself she's gonna find a spouse
But every man she comes across seems to hit her, why?
She doesn't understand that
That's the effect of being abused when she was a kid
So now she's all grown up and has to make ends meet
She's got two choices if she wants to
Make it out these streets
Either strip or sell her body, so she chose to strip
Said, "I'll do lap dances, but no further than this"
She smokes weed, drinks liquor
Pops pills, and sniffs coke
And when she's high
Is the only time in her life she has hope
A troubled soul with such a beautiful smile
But her complexion shows aggression
'Cause she's sick and tired
One day a man came in and asked for a lap dance
They went to the back
He had some extra money in his hand
He said, "What can I get for this?
I mean more than a gentle kiss"
Then he handed her the money
And his pants he unzipped
She tried to say no, but she froze
Flashbacks of her dad
Left her body in a stranger's control
No happy home, she sold her soul for a little bit of gold
Then bought a little bit of blow
And sniffed it all on her own
She was a princess
Could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she gets high every day
And sniffs away all her dreams
She was a princess
Could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she gets high every day
And sniffs away all her dreams
She was a princess
Could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she gets high every day
And sniffs away all her dreams
She was a princess
Now she's 24 years old
And the depression's taken over
Nobody wonders when she slumbers
'Cause she's never found sober
So she has no friends, was never made a wife
She graduated from sniffing coke
To smoking the pipe
She trembles as she writes the confessions to her life
With her spirit on the wall in red blood tonight
Now she's praying to God
"Father, please show me love
Please don't be like my father on earth
Give me a hug, greet me with open arms
And let no harm happen to me
I need your love
So please forgive me for what I'm doing"
Now her visions getting blurry
But her thoughts are getting clearer
For the first time in her life
She finally smiled back in the mirror
Now her visions getting blurry
But her thoughts are getting clearer
For the first time in her life
She finally smiled back in the mirror
She was a princess
Could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she's stripping on the pole
To get money, energy, strength
She was a princess
Could have been a beautiful queen
Instead, she gets high every day
And sniffs away all her dreams
She was a princess
Could have been a beautiful queen
Instead the find her with one split at 1:15
She was a princess
