time taken Lyrics

You said

The rain might fill my lungs

If not for you

How come

You made me feel like

There was nothing I could do

To

Feel some safety

Feel some safety

There in your arms

It's been good lately

Been good lately

But theres no charm

In the way

Back in the day

You taught me

Baby child

It's all harm

It's all harm

You said

That's

All they got for you and

All they got for you is

Something you want

Nothing to do with

Say

They got

The hots for you, all

They really wanna do is

Wrap you all around

Their finger

Til your candles burnt right through

Yeah, til there's nothing left of you

Nothing left of

So you made sure

I felt like

Nothing to begin with

I'll waste my time

Waiting on you

To take it back

When you tell me

That you want to

Give me away

Cause of the things

That I can't do

Pray to God

That what you say

Ain't the truth

I'll take my time

Waiting for you

To say it back

When I tell you

That I love you

I know there's nothing

That you

Would rather do

Than keep it kosher

Speaking only in truths

Developmental stages

All of my core memories

The poison's

In the sustenance

Like lead

Through mammaries

A curse of an inheritance

Begotten in family

All the love you kept

I know it couldn't fix a thing

Examples that they set

Will always

Leave a bitter sting

The things you said

And what you meant

All so confounding

To me

I know they

Did you wrong

So you say

I'm not strong

But you've no

Clue how wrong

You are

I'll waste my time

Waiting on you

To take it back

When you tell me

That you want to

Give me away

Cause of the things

That I won't do

Pray to God

That what you say

Ain't the truth

I'll take my time

Waiting on you

To say it back

When I tell you

That I love you

I know there's nothing

That you would rather do

Than keep it kosher

Speaking only in truths

I know

Better than to

Listen to you

Oh

I hear

The timbre

That betrays

What you

Really knew

Oh
