Love Ain' T a Power Strip

I look into your eyes
I see the fear 
he brought into your life
If u don't do something 
or if you do it wrong 
he raises his hand at you 
then fear for your life

I've seen this happen so many times 
One of these nights 
You should walk out and leave
Don't let that man 
Control you 

If that guy really loved you 
Why does he smack you around
What is with him always being in power
Love is love not a power strip

Don't let him hurt you 
Don't let him scare you done
Don't feel embraced about the marks
Don't think that he is winning 

One of those days raise your hand back
Don't get scared 
Cause girl I backing you up 
love is a special thing 
Don't get me wrong
But love ain't a power strip

He wants all the power 
He wants you too
He has to learn 
Your a good girl 
Not a play toy 

I see your fear 
when I look in to your eyes
I know he raises his hand 
all the time at you girl 

Don't be scared 
let him know you fight back 
Don't leave him win 
fear ain't love 
and love ain't' a power strip
