See we gotta talk about this situation Its effecting lives It ain't right c'mon
Let's talk about it Let's let it be known Cause if we don't talk about it Then they'll never pick up a phone
You see everyday a woman cries For someone in the world to realizes That she is a victim of her husband's abuse
I don't understand you see When the system starts to fail And the husband leaves the jail She begins to think that Telling someone is no use
She can either run or hide Or stay with him and Let her kids watch her soul die
I don't understand but She's back at that kitchen table With a cigarette between her lips And smoke in her eyes As she cries With a fresh cup of coffee
[Chorus] Can find no peace in a cup of coffee Can find no peace in a cup of coffee Can find no peace in a cup of coffee Gotta let it go baby Can find no peace in a cup of coffee Can find no peace in a cup of coffee Can find no peace in a cup of coffee
She is a soul Trapped in a torn body And the doctor says can you Please hold still so we can stop the blood flowing
I don't understand I mean Doesn't it hurt you where He hit you in your head Just inches from your skull Inches from being dead
I don't understand I mean Doesn't the pain make you see? Oh my god he's hurting me
I don't understand and the counsel walks in She ask you Are you gonna let him go? But you bite your bottom lips And the blood shed And you still say no
What's that you say? I gotta stand by my man He's doing the best that he can And the counsel say girl You better think again
She tries her best to serve you a cup of tea To make you will see But still you ask Can I have a fresh cup of coffee? No
[Chorus]
Your babies crying They're crying mama mama please Don't die you and you wanna say something But you're choking up blood And you wanna say baby please don't cry
And the police they come rushing in But they're too late They ask you question But your mind is in a coma state
I don't understand and your Ancestors your ancestors are calling They're calling peace is near But the peace you feel is the peace you fear And once again they saved you From a life of rage Given to you by the husband you once loved Who is now locked in a cage
Now you see now that I do understand Don't let death or near death Be your last resolution Don't let coffee be your only solution No
