This song is by Ludacris and Mary J. Blige. It hit me hard just to think about the fact that some girls in general have to go through life with horrible things like this that happen to them. That these girls are treated like this. Comment back on your thoughts and tell me how the song made you feel.
RUNAWAY LOVE
[Hook - Mary J. Blige]
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
[Verse 1]
Now little lisa is only 9 years old
Shes tryin to figure out why the world is so cold
Why shes all all alone and they never met her family
Mamas always gone and she never met her daddy
Part of her is missin and nobody will listenin
Mama is on drugs gettin high up in the kitchen
Bringin home men at different hours of the night
Startin with laughs--usually endin in a fight
Sneak into her room while her mamas knocked out
Tryin to have his way and little lisa says 'ouch'
She tries to resist but then all he does is beat her
Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her
Lisa is stuck up in the world on her own
Forced to think that hell is a place called home
Nothin else to do but some get some clothes and pack
She says shes bout to run away and never come back.
[Hook]
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
[Verse 2]
Little nicole is only 10 years old
Shes steady tryin to figure why the world is so cold
Why shes not pretty and nobody seems to like her
Alcoholic step dad always wanna strike her
[ these lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
Yells and abuses, leaves her with some bruises
Teachers ask questions she makin up excuses
Bleedin on the inside, cryin on the out
Its only one girl really knows what she about
Her name is lil stacy and they become friends
Promise that they always be tight til the end
Until one day lil stacy gets shot
A drive by bullet went stray up on her block
Now nicole stuck up in the world on her own
Forced to think that hell is a place called home
Nothin else to do but some get some clothes and pack
She says shes bout to run away and never come back.
[Hook]
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
[Verse 3]
Little erica is eleven years old
Shes steady tryin to figure why the world is so cold
So she pops x to get rid of all the pain
Cause shes havin sex with a boy whos sixteen
Emotions run deep and she thinks shes in love
So theres no protection hes usin no glove
Never thinkin bout the consequences of her actions
Livin for today and not tomorrows satisfaction
The days go by and her belly gets big
The father bails out he aint ready for a kid
Knowin her mama will blow it all outta proportion
Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion
Erica is stuck up in the world on her own
Forced to think that hell is a place called home
Nothin else to do but get her clothes and pack
She say shes about to run away and never come back.
[Hook]
Runaway love [repeats til end]

Erica had about gone into shock. She didn’t know what to do. She feared her powers deeply. She didn’t know how to use them yet and she didn’t know what she could use them for. Could she find the people in time, and save them. Well this hasn’t been so successful in the past.
Erica was so confused and raging with anger at the same time. She sat there staring at the ceiling in her bedroom thinking about her brother. She loved him. They had always been very close since forever. Her brother had always been there to protect her and be with her in her most time of need. She just couldn’t imagine life without her brother. She probably wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for him Actually, she wouldn’t be here for sure. When she was about 4 and her brother was 6 they were playing outside. They were playing catch. Her brother had thrown he ball to her and Erica missed the ball. It landed in the street. Erica being the little four year old she was didn’t acknowledge the car coming at her. She ran out there her brother ran as fast as he could and pushed Erica over out of the way. Erica turned around to yell at her brother for pushing her when she saw it. The car had not stopped and had hit her brother. Lucky he was, the car was only traveling at 27 MPH because it was a residential street. Her brother lie there in the road. Not knowing what to do, Erica screamed as loud as she could eventually her mom came out. The car had driven away and no information had been taken on it. My brother was able to withstand any serious problems, so he made a full recovery.The accident had only left him with a broken ankle, and a few scraps and scratches. Then again he was a 6 year old boy. And I was only a 4 year old girl.If I would have been hit by that car. There could have been a possibility I wouldn’t survive. Her brother had awaken in the hospital that night with his sister sleeping right next to him. That is when their close bond began. They both vowed to one and other and had always kept to it that the other was there when one needed help. They sealed it with a spit shake. You know just how little kids might do it.
She thought about this for a while. It brought tears to her eyes. The ceiling began to fuzz up as she continued to cry. It was joy and sadness for what could possibly be coming. She was sitting there. Thinking. Thinking. Thinking… and then she began to cry in rage. She was so furious at her brother right now everything heated. It burned her face as hot tears dripped from her eyes. They were bloodshot. She was so mad how could he not believe her. She might lose her brother just because he is being a dumb @$$! She had to devise a plan on how to show him she was telling the truth but how and who to sacrifice????

Vladek is a strange man. I want to crack his code. Figure him out. He is understandable at times but at other times he makes no sense. He has odd habits. He is my favorite character. He keeps his personality hidden. It almost seems as sometimes that he doesn’t know himself why he came to act that way.
Some things I find interesting about him is, one his attitude. He seems so picky for what he went through (pg. 68). It just bugs me. I might be wrong about the way I feel about the way he acts. I don’t know if I would act the same if I went through that. It just seems to me what I would ant to ct like and what I think Vladek should act like, is to be a little more thankful for the things he has now. It seems like he wouldn’t say, “Did you remember my special bread?” but instead he would be saying something like ” I am glad I at least have bread to make a sandwich.” Just for having to go through a time where he had noting was almost killed seems like you would be thankful for the things you got now instead of picky about them. He could also think maybe he deserves to be picky about what he gets because he had to go through that. I don’t know just some possible solutions to the puzzle I call Vladek.
Then again he also is very conservative of his things. For example, he makes sure only one match is used when two is not necessary( pg. 20) I don’t know Vladek seems like he almost has an alter-ego also. Its intriguing. He at times is a very humble, understandable man. Next moment he could just switch and be all over you because of something you did . Then he is all protective of what ever happened (pg. 73).
Another thing Vladek does is stick to a schedule. (pgs. 18 and 19, probably more but easily seen on these pages). I think this is pretty easily explainable. He is just so used to being on a schedule from when he was in the concentration camps but I could be wrong. It seems like the most logical explanation. For Vladek everything has to be perfect also. just the right amount of pills and crackers (pg. 77). He is a perfectionist.
Vladek. Many undiscovered personalities and quirks to this man.
