Selling Innocence
Only 15!!!
Thats usually what I got,
when I walked in the room clothes off pictures snapped mouths dropped.
I had no real idea of what I was doing,
what you was doing,
or what I allowed you to do.
The crushing of my reputation,
The promotion of self degration,
Leaving no wonders to the imagination,
all because of one snap shot.
The only thing I was coverd in
was diamonds, my five fingers and the hands of others
That picked me up, guided me and told me behind one door thier lied treasures.
The very same hands that abused me and used me for thier own personal pleasures.
A pictures worth a thousand words at least thats what I was told,
so I figured if I could take one picture,
just one picture I could disguise who I truly was and leave you to assume.
Assume that just because my face was painted, body exposed
I was coverd in silver you'de think my life was gold,
but no however innocent is one thing Im not.
whats that you ask? how I grew up so fast? all because of one snapshot.
Body seen on the covers of magizines,
boys face smiling, girls around me frown,
mommas face dissapointed, and my heads held down,
realizing life is no longer a game
The word Lexy soon vanished from everyones vocabulary,
page 12 was now my name.
Sweating real hard tryinmg to convince myself that this is a dream,
Pinching my skin untill it turned red,
saying in a low voice, this is'nt as bad as it seems.
But it was. I wasnt exactly sure if it was wrong but I knew it wasnt right.
February 14 2005, the day I sold myself to a camera,
in exchange of my life.
Selling innocence!!!
