My first shadow son?
Were you abused?
Or what had I done?

You groomed and you planned,
I never saw it coming.
You had your fun,
My first shadow son.

I lay awake at night thinking,
So many years of my life gone.
Taken by you and secret thoughts,
My first shadow son!

I will get my life back from you,
As I take control of what you’ve done.
I am finding myself,
My first shadow son.

Tall and scary as you can be,
As I tried not to be bad.
And you frightened me,
My second shadow dad.

Let me hide under my bed, and pretend not be to be.
I promise to not be bad.
I guess I was taught that from you,
My second shadow dad.

Your voice was loud and your fist carried a punch,
You are mad.
Was I bad?
My second shadow dad.

You made us walk on egg shells,
Frightened at every move.
Why did you hate us?
My second shadow dad!
