"Courage" lyrics
We're having a sword fight on a Friday night
Oh your words cut me so deep, you stress me
I'm taking a long flight on a paper plane
When you know I been tryna quit the green
You got some problems, you really do
And you abusing my empathy
And that's my problem as I'm seduced by a project
That's so sexy to me, drain my energy, yeah
Ain't got the courage to leave
And I know, and I know that's on me
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
I ain't got the courage to grieve
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
'Cause you know that I need you to love me
You want me submissive using Bible verses
Telling me all your false prophecies
Need you around you, addictive but it's clear to see
That's a codependency, ah
You got some problems, you really do
And I'm confused
But I got clarity
And therapy
I know the problem is that I'm used
To a cycle of inconsistency
And draining energy, yeah
Ain't got the courage to leave
And I know, and I know that's on me
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
I ain't got the courage to grieve
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
'Cause you know that I need you to love me
I needed you to love me when I didn't love myself
So familiar
Cut my inner child, we're used the hell, used to pain
Used to be drunk off your bitter fruit
Sow the seed, ignore the weeds
Just to see the good in you
"Man what's a queen doing with a peasant anyway?"
They tried to tell me but bro dick me off the chain
Maybe if you put the same effort into, I don't know, a career
Then you could finally leave mine alone
Instead or oppressing me and stressing me daily
Tell me you love but you treat me like you hate me
I took the pill so I never had your baby
'Cause you could never tame me, break me, are you crazy?
Yeah you were burning me good on the slow cooker
And yet you had me addicted to your sugar
But I be getting clean while you be getting lean
And this time next year I'll be doing me
Oh your words cut me so deep, you stress me
I'm taking a long flight on a paper plane
When you know I been tryna quit the green
You got some problems, you really do
And you abusing my empathy
And that's my problem as I'm seduced by a project
That's so sexy to me, drain my energy, yeah
Ain't got the courage to leave
And I know, and I know that's on me
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
I ain't got the courage to grieve
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
'Cause you know that I need you to love me
You want me submissive using Bible verses
Telling me all your false prophecies
Need you around you, addictive but it's clear to see
That's a codependency, ah
You got some problems, you really do
And I'm confused
But I got clarity
And therapy
I know the problem is that I'm used
To a cycle of inconsistency
And draining energy, yeah
Ain't got the courage to leave
And I know, and I know that's on me
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
I ain't got the courage to grieve
And I know, and I know that I'm weak
'Cause you know that I need you to love me
I needed you to love me when I didn't love myself
So familiar
Cut my inner child, we're used the hell, used to pain
Used to be drunk off your bitter fruit
Sow the seed, ignore the weeds
Just to see the good in you
"Man what's a queen doing with a peasant anyway?"
They tried to tell me but bro dick me off the chain
Maybe if you put the same effort into, I don't know, a career
Then you could finally leave mine alone
