Demon

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Now, I'm reminded of the summer When I thought I knew you A fool, believing everything you told me And even maybe last winter When I thought your heart was in it And you said you'd do whatever for me I was lured into lies, got lost in your eyes Let you violate my trust time and time again And when you cried about your life I would sympathize Welcome you with open arms, my friends, they call me foolish [Pre-Chorus] Too many times I put myself on the line trying to protect you Similar to a drug It took me too many doses 'fore the poison hit me Now, I'm left here, feeling like I been struck by lightning, this is frightening 'Cause everyone warned me and I didn't believe them Now, I want you to know [Chorus] Although you may be grown, it's evident you haven't been raised Coming from a broken home with little friends, that's your claim to fame I had to learn that I could not believe a thing you say But you gone learn the hard way, baby You cannot break the arms that hold you daily [Verse 2] You claim to came from the hood Often misunderstood Abused, neglected, and looked down upon And all I did was treat you good When no one else could Bare to even look at you Broke relations with you friends Manipulated them with no attempts to make amends That should've warned me If I would've listened to my mother Or maybe all the others That tried to warn me that you was schemin [Pre-Chorus] Too many times I put myself on the line trying to protect you Similar to a drug It took me too many doses 'fore the poison hit me Now, I'm left here, feeling like I been struck by lightning, this is frightening 'Cause everyone warned me, but I didn't believe them Now, I want you to know [Chorus] Although you may be grown, it's evident you haven't been raised Coming from a broken home with little friends, that's your claim to fame I had to learn that I could not believe a thing you say But you gone learn the hard way, baby You cannot break the arms that hold you daily [Bridge] And I don't hate you 'cause you made me better Girl, that shit's made me better And I promise I can get through anything No matter the weather Baby, look what you did Girl, I loved you, you could've had my kids You thought you would be the one But, girl, I thought you was wrong When you did what you did You thought you was clever But girl, your shit could've been better, baby [Chorus] And I want you to know that I don't really hate you See, the truth is The truth You know the truth is, baby I wish we was still cool I wish we was still cool, baby But now, I got to wish you well Girl, you was wrong as hell
