Paroles de A Ballad For Homegirls
Hello?Yo, sis, you know what's crazy?
The realization maybe
The older we grow up, we act more like our mommas
Ain't we emotional too?
We patient till we ain't
I'm yelling at my boo like she'd do daddy
Uhm and he's no saint
It made me think about communication, what I need to change
'Cause throwing shit and getting worked up, that is not my thang
I need some peace not codependency
I'm sure that's what you see
But tell me what you think?
Girl, yo, give me some honesty
Hold me accountable for what I repeat
He laid with her, my dumb ass let him come lay down with me
Like brothers in Bedstuy, gotta subway cross town but coming back to me
And I ain't into sharing nigga, that ain't in my pedigree
Got me feeling dumb dumb, asking questions like that ain't G
Self reflecting what I lack, why I let him come back?
I know the answers, but I need perspective
Why you think I do that?
What you think about that?
Shit, I just called to chat
Am I afraid to be alone, girl? Not him calling for the seventh time
Now he textin', sayin' I'm his only one, girl
It's the audacity for me, you know he lyin'
He lyin'
You know he lyin'
Sister, sister
I don't know why you keep him in the picture
When he in the back of every other bitch flicks
Lookin' like Carmelo
It's gon' be a hell no for me, la-la-la-la
I don't wanna hear no more excuses, it's toxic, let's be honest
Why you wasting energy bleaching his Reeboks
If you gon' open the door when he knocks?
Oh, you just took him back? (We shocked)
Girl, please
Girl, please
You already got the answers you need
I know you looking for some reassurance
I don' read this book so much that I could preach a sermon
I know you gotta lot of love to give
But, ask yourself does he deserve it?
Just 'cause you can't fix a broken man, don't mean you worthless
You wasn't born to be a shoe
And it's not your fault if that boy wanna be a fool
I know you well, you can't get past me
You know what I'ma say when you ask me
Am I afraid to be alone, girl?
If I told you no, girl, I'd be lyin'
I hear you, but it's hard for me sometimes, girl
Girl, fuck that, that man ain't worth your time
Speak of the devil, look, he calling me right now, girl
Not him calling for the seventh time
Now he textin', sayin' I'm his only one, girl
It's the audacity for me, you know he lyin'
He lyin'
I know, I know, I know, I know
You know he lyin'
But I love him, girl (Damn)
But you right
You read me
I hear you
I know nigga ain't shit
Men lie, women lie, but men definitely lie, hahaha
You know he lyin'
I'm not, I'm not gonna answer the phone when he call back
You know he lyin'
I'm done with it
Girl, he lyin' right to your face
What a disgrace, you know he lyin'
You know he lyin'
Got his momma rollin' 'round in her grave
She know he lyin'
Uhm and he's no saint
It made me think about communication, what I need to change
'Cause throwing shit and getting worked up, that is not my thang
I need some peace not codependency
I'm sure that's what you see
But tell me what you think?
