Music: Aston Rudi/Tamera Cuthbert
Gave you the best pieces of me, told you hold that forever
I ain′t tryna reason with you now 'cause you should know better
I know this a pattern and now it is what it is
You did everything I told you not to then did it again and again
Now I can′t hold it in or pretend
You ain't been actin' like a foe and not a friend to me
You actin′ like a frenemy, ooh
It′s the ones you love that's gonna leave you hurt
Make you fly then leave you in the dirt
It′s the ones you love that's gonna make you cry a river, cry
Moon river
Cryin′ a river turning to hard liquor
Oh God, oh God
Deliver
Please deliver
This sinner I've been made into
See, when you hurtin′, you gon' twist and you gon' turn and
You gon′ try to shift the blame to someone else to share the burden
′Cause it's too heavy on your heart
And you scared you gon′ drown in it
It's easier to stay than changing your surroundings
But I won′t let someone's son turn me to someone I don′t like
I'ma take this pain you gave me and turn it into light
I'ma take this pain you gave me and turn it into light
I been raised to face the rain, manifest the sunshine
I been in the dark before so I know how to shine in it
You been out here chasin′ rocks, you fumblin′ a diamond and
I can't hold it in and pretend
You ain′t been actin' like a foe and not a friend
It′s the ones you love that's gonna leave you hurt
Make you fly then leave you in the dirt
It′s the ones you love that's gonna make you cry a river, cry
Moon river
Cryin' a river turning to hard liquor
Oh God, oh God
Deliver
Please deliver
This sinner I′ve been made into
