âThe Idiotâ, based on a real pedophile who was exposed and committed suicide, leaving his children to not only to be left with the scars of abuse but the legacy of his selfish death.

âPetrafideâ, based on a young womanâs struggle to not be taken in by a slick, attractive man. A bad boy, possibly an abuser and she knows it.

âTalk Show Skitâ into âPero Lo Amoâ, her signature abuse anthem! It is an aggressive song to try and persuade young victims to escape their abusers and defend themselves with force if necessary. It is written as a Rap Song in an attempt speak to young people in a language they will understand and appreciate. ADULT LANGAGE on this track.

âOver Meâ, dealing with the mind of an abuse victim. It is an account of her experience with a brutal abuser and the complete breakdown of her sense of self worth. In this song she can see how pathetic she is and hates herself for it.

âJust To Hate Youâ, based on the no-self respect reasoning of an abuse victim. Another account of her past failures to leave her distant and abusive relationships. The point is if you can understand an abuse victim you can help them.
