Lyrics
I broke your daughter's trust
I called out your mind games
I ran my mouth about the way you try to make us hurt
I knew better those were private conversations
Code word silence the walls we put up in this house
And no one's gonna change your mind
You're never gonna take off
One night you're never gonna rest you're never gonna let up
You never even have the time
For coffee when you wake up
Time's up you're racing and you'll never stop
You could see the pain written in her eyes
Since she left home, she's made ours whole
Don't need no one to lean head on
Even though her neck's stiff from working late
And no one's gonna change your mind
You're scraping every dime
Late nights and sleepless days to feed our greedy mouths
You never even have the time
For coffee when you wake up
Time's up you're racing and you'll never stop
You could see the joy written in her smile
Since you left home, she's been missing you
Don't need no Christmas gifts beneath the tree
Just to see her boy coming home this year
I keep on trying to make it happen like Serena in the Wimbledon arena
But the truth is I missed out on prima ballerina
I'm my worst enemy full time frenemy
Like Raven Symone on the Today Show
Or being a ho with no cash to show
Being a ho with no cash to show
Six AM and I'll awake my ego it's not you it's me boy
Can't you see?
I watched you close when I sang this song
Watch your eyes on the verge of sleep
I watched you close when I sang this song
Watch your eyes, hope you're still awake
