Cry No More Lyrics - Behind The Music - Kj-52

The boy stepped out his house on to the sidewalk 

Looked down the street on his block and then he just stopped 

And tied the shoes on his feet and then he just walked 

It was the middle of the week outside was real hot 

He told his dad where he would be now and what not 

Said he would go down by trees near the bus stop 

The clock read quarter to three and he just thought I'll sneak around and play hide and seek in the back lot 

And on his way to the spot a man from upstairs 

Told him to stop and come here and he just stared 

At this little boy of seven years with brown hair 

And as he came near the man whispered in his ear 

What he said left him numb frozen with fear 

He wanted to run but his feet wouldn't go anywhere 

He wanted to scream but he couldn't he was glued there 

He wanted to leave but he wouldn't he was too scared

Cry no more 

You don't have to cry no more 

Don't cry no more 

You don't have to cry no more 

What happened that day left him changed forever 

A day he wisshed he could erase and never remember 

He tried to block out the pain as he got older 

But he was consumed with hate now for this neighbor 

And everyday he was ashamed when he saw himself 

So ashamed that he proclaimed that he would never tell 

Blocked out the memory of the pain so he'd never feel 

He'd pretend to be ok and hide in his shell 

He'd try to put a smile on his face like all was well 

But this child couldn't change what he really felt 

He blamed God for the cards that he was dealt 

His heart grew hard by the time he was twelve 

Began to fall apart and his grades start to fail 

Until the day he cried to God asking for His help 

He wanted to find and start a new life for himself 

He closed his eyes and into the arms of Christ he fell

Cry no more 

You don't have to cry no more 

Don't cry no more 

You don't have to cry no more 

Everything you heard the boy would never speak 

He held it all inside until he utrned fifteen 

I know that might be hard for you to believe 

But he couln't talk about it until God set me free 

See way back when he was seven years old 

He was sexually abused but no one was ever told 

With nowhere to turn and no place to go 

See he thought he could get through and maintain control 

But little did he know he coulnd't make it on his own 

But that was just the time when you came through to show 

How much You loved himand You wanted him to know 

That You would never leave and You would never go 

And You taught him to forgive and gave peace to his soul 

And now he trully lives cause You made him whole 

From that day ever since he ain't never been alone 

That's why he'd convinced he don't have to cry no more 

Cry no more 

You don't have to cry no more 

Don't cry no more 

You don't have to cry no more
