"City's Burning" lyrics

There's something in the air
There's something in the water
Eyes got a different stare
Different than last I saw you
You know this life ain't fair
This life ain't fair
Somebody should've told your ass
(Somebody should've told your ass)
But you seem to never care about nothing at all

I blame it on your momma, I blame it on your daddy too
'Cause they didn't make a ruler out of you
And I blame it on your uncles, I blame it on your nanny too
They failed to raise a king out of you

I can't believe, I made amends
Gave you my all, you gave me less
I was in love or just naive
How come I fall for foolish men?
I made you up for you to be
Something you're not, you'll never be
But not today, kiss you goodnight

I let the bridges burn
I let the bridges burn
I let the bridges burn
I let them, let them burn

I don't think you ever thought I had it in me
To turn my back on you
Planned it all way through
Acquaint you with my vicious
Roses can be cruel, my thorns coming through
You're scared to face the truth, as I pull it up on you
You beg me, think it through
Not hear to bring good news
And I tell you, tell you, tell you, tell you

You should be here to feel what's causing the fire
I've been the cigarette you'd toss on the pile
And I only wanted peace a mind with you
Conceive till now, with you
Share your last name, with you
I pray that the bridges gon' fall (Yeah)
Yes, I should've left the message, baby

As your world starts burning
Mines about to start
As your world starts burning, baby
Turning, baby, burning, baby
Turning, baby

I told you not to mess with me
