I was so little I didn't exactly understand I was just curious In this big ole land
My sister was giving me A simple bath Whilst my mother was out of it She was taking care of me and struggling with homework in math
She left me a moment To check on my other sis And I became A bit too curious
I didn't cry It just interested me But she came back soon enough To see cuts all on my body
I had gotten to her razor And cut my self everywhere I didn't mean to be all bloody I just wanted to be like her
But there was 2 year-old me With lots of cuts and covered in blood She cleaned me up As best she could
It left scabs behind A few scars too My curiosity got her Feeling very blue
She felt so bad She never meant it to happen I've always been like her daughter As I'm still growin'
Accidents happen She understands that well But she's more of a mother to me Than anyone else
12 years older But has always cared I never knew Until my step-mom shared
My real mother No where for me to find So my sister, took the job Since I was left behind
She's my baby-sitter My best friend My sister My substitute mother permanently
