Love is hard work, so I’ve been told.
But what part of the vows say, to have and to control.

I use to make excuses for the way you treated me.
Some would say I was blind but clearly I could see.

I feel like God is punishing me for my sin.
Because the first time I left, I promised God I wouldn’t go back again.

But here I am holding back the tears.
Wondering why oh why did I stay for five years.

You treated me like an animal locked up in a cage.
My heart is full of love, but my mind is filled with rage.

Living with you was like walking on an egg shell.
When you were happy it was heaven, when you were mad it was hell.

I tried not to provoke you in anyway at all.
But the moment I made a mistake, Bitch is what I’m called.

You call me names and put me down in every way you can.
Your Ike Turner’s biggest fan.

So the vows are clear, its to have and to hold.
And you will soon find out that "Love Is Uncontrolled".
