[verse 1: sam mackey]
dear sam
i see you sitting on the floor
leaning against your bedroom door
your arms crossed, wrapped tightly around your body
knees pressed to your chest, you feel alone who can hurt ya? anybody
i look away for a minute; take a glance around your room
all i can think is, “man i pray somebody saves you soon”
i see a single bare mattress with only a pillow
sticking out from under it i notice a knife and to the middle…
i see your homework
the teacher gave you a d for all your hard work
i know you gave your best and that’s even worse
but i give you an a for surviving the day
your only ten, i want to give you full permission to play
but i know that you can’t look away for a second
trying to stay safe takes your full blown attention
you can barley hold your head up, this is all too heavy
but i’m here now, so lay it down and put your head on me

[hook]

[verse 2: sam mackey]
i sit down beside you, begin to pray for you
you can’t see me no
i wish you could maybe your breathing would slow
i can hear the screaming from the upstairs and for you this isn’t rare
if all they’re doing is screaming then maybe god answered a prayer
you doubt it
beginning to rock back and forth, tears streaming down your face
looks like your been hit by a train but no that’s not the case
“please daddy please just leave me be”
“why mommy why not even a hug goodbye?
daddy says you don’t love me, you both wish i’d die?”
“i’m trying to ignore but i’m starting to think that wasn’t a lie”
i look into your eyes i see a little girl losing her life
i wish i could hold you tight and promise everything would be alright
i’ll carry you in my arms and walk you out onto the street
and there’s the sun that you never thought you’d meet

[hook]

[verse 3: sam mackey]
i wanna take your hand and help you understand
there’s more to life then living in fear of your mom and old man
i love you sam, you’re the best i’ve ever had
i regret doing this to you i’m almost worst than dad
you deserve to feel safe, you deserve to feel loved
but your situation is unfortunate and f-cked up
so now you got resentments toward yourself
and the guy up above, deprived of love
you lost a huge part of your life i recognize that
and i promise you we never have to go back
i’m gonna let you be a child, run and play
i’m not leaving you i promise you i’m here to stay
i’ll hold you in my arms and ill heal you back up
your worth more than this, f-ck i’ve had enough
you’re hurting and you’re scared
you don’t know what to do
but i’m here now to help you
dear sam, i see you
