Betrayal by the Women Within

Oh, how I've been used
By the women in my life
From the nanny to my granny
They've all caused me strife
For I was but a boy
When they first laid their hands
Fucking and sucking
I couldn't understand

But as I grew into a man
They still wouldn't leave me be
I couldn't escape their grasp
No matter how hard I pleaded
Godmother, dear godmother
Why did you do me wrong
You were supposed to guide me
But instead, you took me along

Aunt, my dear aunt
Why did you betray
You were meant to protect me
Yet you led me astray
And my unnumbered female cousins
Oh, what can I say
They all took a piece of me
And then went on their way

Babysitters, oh dear babysitters
Left to take care of me
But instead, they took advantage
And left scars for all to see
Two teachers, not one but two
In grades seven and nine
They taught me more than just math
And crossed the line

Some friends, I thought were true
But they had their own desires
They used me for their pleasure
And left me with fire
A mother-in-law, can you believe
When I was just seventeen
She couldn't resist me
And it all felt like a dream

Even in my first job
With a colleague as my boss
She couldn't resist the temptation
And we both paid the cost
And a female mentor
Who was supposed to guide
But instead, she took advantage
And left my soul to die

Oh, how I've been used
By the women in my life
They took what they wanted
And left me with strife
But I won't let them define me
I'll rise above their sin
For I am not just a victim
I am a man within.
