There is an elephant in the room that we are trying to avoid
The problem is, it is so big it creates a huge void
It takes up unnecessary space and impose on our lives
Even if it doesn’t affect you directly, it affects husbands and wives
Children, families, and friends everywhere
Are broken apart and drowning in their own tears
Despite their cries, others turn a blind eye
Pretending not to see the elephant, why?
Why does society pretend to be perfect? Yet it is very clear
Domestic violence is real and it will not just disappear
If we continue to ignore it it will only get worst
It has taken mothers, fathers, children, leaving families disturbed
But this is one woman who is taking a stand
Facing the elephant head on, I chose to take a stand. 
Standing up for those who are too afraid to speak
Taking a stand for those whose minds are too weak
Taking a stand for all who have experienced loss to domestic violence
Because the elephant will move, once I break my silence
So are you going to continue to sit there in bondage and lies?
Or are you going to fess up and give the elephant a surprise?
Are you ready to take back your homes, churches, and schools?
Then stand up and say NO to all forms of abuse.
It is time to identify love from a healthy standpoint with healthy eyes
Time to reinforce boundaries and create healthy family ties.
