Meet Mel Heartbreak hotel is where she dwells Feels self-loathing inside so she pops a couple pills She sells herself short man, just for the cheapest thrills Sex appeals Puts herself through ordeals to pay bills And though it kills, it also heals Reveals a certain confidence she had concealed Potential unfulfilled due to fear that's instilled In turn she wields her sword and shield She's Lagertha upon this battlefield But she doesn't even know it Me, I'm just a poet tryna show it I can see the signs, diluting pain with wines Her mental health on decline Gotta rewind, look between the lines Hopefully it's there you'll find a peace of mind Confined inside with an innocence you thought had died And in a sense you'll feel more alive Start to thrive Just face and delve into where your trauma derived It all started in '95 Mel's around four or five Mum arrived home late one night from a 9 to 5 Her man ask "Where ya been" slight suspicion implied She replied "Worked overtime, my hands where tied" He had a feeling inside, he really thought she lied They argued for a bit, uncompromised she denied He couldn't let shit slide, not satisfied Switched like Jekyll and Hyde Let compulsions override In that moment, mum saw a devil in his eyes She cried "Mel run, go hide!" Mel stood stagnant petrified A teddy by her side As she watched her father take that stride Choked her mum till she was breath deprived Picked up a knife on the counter side Then a demon personified He proceeded to stab her seven times She wasn't to survive Mother met her demise, in a home where they reside Mel witnessed a homicide, her father killed his bride All cause of hurt pride and an apparent affair But it didn't end there Cause Mel ended up under Child Welfare In care for the next ten years Where she lived out a nightmare Mr. Pear would arrive there Every night she put on her nightwear Stroking her hair with a stern stare He'd ask if he could share, she obliged out of pure fear Weren't no fucking volunteer Always had his way, left her broken in despair Only his musty scent lingered in the air
