Take Me Away - Flawless Real Talk, Vchenay

Fading away from here

Sometimes I close my eyes and try to disappear

Take me away from everything that is hurting me

Can anyone help get my life back

Her name was Kelly, she was living next door to me

A pretty little girl from time to time would try to talk to me

Said she loved music and would always sing a song to me

To see her daily by the window, she’d be calling me

She told me that she was a fan, I can’t believe

She’s living next to Flawless so I gave her some CDs

Was always nice to her, she was only fifteen

And I could tell she had a crush and talking to me was a dream

But, then I started wondering if I was new to the fact that I’ve never seen her

leave her house to go to school

Never seen her outside and I don’t know if this is true

But looking back, I’ve never seen her leave her room

It was clear.

I’m doing tours across the country and I’m never here

So I judge the situation isn’t real fair

Until the last time I tried to leave she was really scared

Don’t know what she feared but she said she was

Fading away from here

Sometimes I close my eyes and try to disappear

Take me away from everything that is hurting me

Can anyone help get my life back

Was on the road and if I had a little time

I’d respond to all the emails she’d be sending me online

Would always check on how she’s doing

At the moment it was fine

Until I got a message that will never sit well in my mind

It read:

«Dear Flawless, I hope you’re doing well.

But I’m in a lot of trouble when I

don’t know who to tell.

I know I’m gonna lose it if I don’t get any help,

I think I want to end it all, this life I’m living is a hell.

Please,

I need to find a way out, I hope you write back.

I know you’re probably busy

but you said you’d always write back.

You said that you’re my friend,

I love you, I don’t even like rap.

But I need someone who can help me get my

life back.»

I sat back not really knowing what to say

I gotta get her help to show her that there’s a different way

But before I clicked away, I realized she had plenty more to say

Fading away

Fading away from here

Sometimes I close my eyes and try to disappear

Take me away from everything that is hurting me

Can anyone help get my life back

Get my life back

Help me get my life back

Get my life back

Help me get my life back

All these weeks are flying by

Even though I try to stay in touch it’s really busy when you’re on the other

side

I start to think of Kelly and I feel it all inside

She was probably leaving emails that I never had replied

I’m behind

Went to read them all in order but was blind the second I saw the pain she was

spilling with every line

And then I saw the latest message

Something caught my eye in bold letters

I’m seeing that the title said «Goodbye»

And it read:

«Dear Flawless, since you won’t respond I guess you don’t understand what’s

really going on.

Two years ago it changed and my father and my mom split ways,

now she’s got somebody strange round her arm and mine.

In the middle of the

night he wakes me, takes me, by his filthy hands and then makes me.

I tried to tell my mother but she says that I was crazy, and I wanna see her

happy I wish my daddy would come save me.

What makes it worse is that he never

was protected.

Injected a part of him and now I know I’m pregnant.

I don’t have any friends, this life is not what I expected.

Got myself kicked

out of school 'cause I get bullied every second.

I had to sneak to send you all

these emails that I wrote.

Foolish to think that you wouldn’t take this as a

joke.

I’m only fifteen and always had a little hope and now I see my life is

over, there’s no other way to cope.

What I’m really trying to say,

I wish that I could stay.

Talking to you used to be my favorite part of my day.

But I’m sick of waiting for someone to come and save the day, so it’s time to

let go and let God come and take me away.»

«It comes after the death of a fifteen year old student who killed herself»

«Kelly's mother discovered the body Monday after school, she’d hanged herself

in her bedroom»

«…will now face charges in connection with her death»

«…he was to be formerly charged with rape Wednesday, instead, criminal

charges against him were dropped»

«Spokes person for the prosecutors says Kelly was the only source of evidence,

and with her death, they couldn’t make the case»
