Don't judge me if I get too high tonight
My journey isn't yours it's only mine
The damage has been done so this I pray
God give me the strength to get myself past yesterday
Her Mom and Daddy trusted that neighbor she grew up with
They were working days and nights
So he took her home from school sometimes
One day when she came home it looked like she saw a ghost
She snuck up to her room to cry with a lifelong scar to hide
Young enough for princess posters suddenly she's lifetimes older
He stole the innocence from her
Before she knew the meaning of the word
Hours in the shower steam still never felt clean
As she curls into a ball some things you can't wash off
Don't judge me if I get too high tonight
My journey isn't yours it's only mine
The damage has been done so this I pray
God give me the strength to get myself past yesterday
A few paths in life she could take
But not one of them I could blame
Finding every way to numb finding ways to overcome
I pray that God will right that wrong
And she'll find a way to carry on
'Cause you ain't the hell that you've been through
You're more than what's been done to you
Don't judge me if I get too high tonight
My journey isn't yours it's only mine
The damage has been done so this I pray
God give me the strength to get myself past yesterday
In those corners you'll find that you're broken and scared
There's no one by your side still all your angels are there
At your lowest of lows when life's been cruel and unfair
I just hope that you know all your angels are there
Don't judge me if I get too high tonight
