🎵Maria🎵

(Verse 1)

Let me tell you ’bout Maria, a soul on fire

Burning bright in circumstances, anything but higher

Just my observation, a humble point of view

‘Bout a girl named Maria, and the life she lived through

She craved the thrill of youth, a vibrant, pulsing beat

Lost in the moment, forgetting time’s fleeting deceit

No one whispered softly, “The future holds more days,

Than fleeting nights of freedom, in its hazy, dizzying maze.”

Sometimes she chased the hunger too hard

Ending most nights drunk at the local bar

(Verse 2)

She wasn’t loose, she wasn’t dense

Just a girl with a dream, searching her sense

Where do I begin? Love’s a twisted, blinding game

Maria laid her heart bare, fueled by love’s flame

But the flame burned for a man, standing for nothing at all

Except controlling anger, watching Maria fall

(Verse 3)

He disrespected, demeaned, ignored her every plea

Blind to her opinions, deliberately obtuse, you see

Family warned her, whispered of danger ahead

“His signals are all wrong, Maria, don’t you be misled!”

But logic fades to silence when the heart takes firm control

Anger and controlling and jealousy ate his soul

(Verse 4)

Everything she did became a reason to fight.

He was a little boy, lost in the darkness of the night

Then one fateful evening, all the warnings came true

The monster unleashed itself, fueled by jealous view

She was out with her friends, just laughing, light, and free

He assumed the worst, consumed by raging jealousy

(Verse 5)

He stalked the streets, a fire in his eyes

Hunting for Maria, fueled by wicked lies

He found her laughing, unaware of the doom above

Then jealousy overtook him, traded hate for love

Her friends tried to help, but he shoved them all aside

A tragic collision, where innocence would die

(Verse 6)

They called the police, hoping to end the scene

Then came three loud pops, a nightmare so mean

He made a choice, to crush a spirit so bright

A coward’s cruel act, erasing all her light

(Chorus)

Maria, oh Maria, your story cut too short

Denied a future, a life you never fought

No motherhood, no wedding vows to share

Just echoes of laughter, lost in empty air

(Verse 7)

How many stories like Maria’s fill the night?

Abruptly ended, stolen from the light

Remember her name, let her story be told

No act of violence should ever grow so bold

Understand, nothing can justify the choice now made

That took a young woman and with her stole more than he paid
