okay

i can remember

gotta remember way back when

since a small small kid

i didn't ever have no friends

'member daddy went to prison

uncle derek took me in

then uncle derek went to prison

that's when my troubles began

mama went off and found her some happiness

she got married

missin' my daddy badly

i turned my back on the family

and that left me looking for love in all the wrong places

now my heart that was so full of love is full of hate

everybody that i invested trust turned to be snakes

everybody that i invested trust turned to be fake

i know you're frustrated

you want me to open more

but it takes a strong

strong heart to heal a broken soul

he's been abandoned his whole life

if loving me is hard

i apologize

if i push you away

promise you'll stay by my side

he's been broken

traumatized

uh-huh

dawg

yeah-yeah-yeah

dawg

uh

now here's a toxic trait that i have

i beg for distance when i'm mad

but bein' distant

we won't last

and if it's best for you

then go be free

but if you plan on comin' back

then baby

you shouldn't leave

'cause by the time that you get back

i'll be gone

too scared of bein' alone

and where i lay my hat's my home

and i know that you're frustrated

you want me to open more

but it takes a strong

strong heart to heal my broken soul

broken soul

broken

soul

yeah

bring the hook back right there

he's been abandoned his whole life

if loving me is hard

i apologize

if i push you away

promise you'll stay by my side

he's been broken

traumatized

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah-yeah-yeah
