Raise No Fool

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm wearing rose-tinted shades, but all I see Is shades of my imagination covered in red A crooked smile and some fake love put me in these handcuffs Threw away the keys 'cause I was a threat [Pre-Chorus] Well, first you try to tell me that we're family Then you try to tell me that it's for the best You promise that you'll be there if I need ya But I don't need your handout, you can take it back [Chorus] I won't be used My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging So cut me loose My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging no more Oh, oh, oh, oh Won't let you leave me hanging no more Oh, oh, oh, oh Won't let you leave me hanging no more [Verse 2] Mm, I got a pain in my backbone Where'd you get that knife from? Why the hell is it so covered in red? I let you walk into my home Let you make it your own You tried to tear it down and leave me for dead [Pre-Chorus] Well, first you try to tell me that we're family Then you try to tell me that it's for the best You promise that you'll be there if I need ya But I don't need your handout, you can take it back [Chorus] I won't be used (No, no) My mama didn't raise no fool (Yeah) Won't let you leave me hanging So cut me loose (Snip, snip) My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging no more Oh, oh, oh, oh Won't let you leave me hanging no more Oh, oh, oh, oh Won't let you leave me hanging no more [Bridge] Whoo, ha-ha-ha Ladies and gentlemen If you're sick of being disrespected Let me hear you sing it Go I don't wanna feel like my money that you're spending No, I don't wanna feel like I'm losing 'cause you're winning, baby I don't wanna feel like my money that you're spending No, I don't wanna feel like I'm losing 'cause you're winning [Chorus] I won't be used My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging So cut me loose My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging I won't be used My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging So cut me loose My mama didn't raise no fool Won't let you leave me hanging no more Oh, oh, oh, oh Won't let you leave me hanging no more (No more, no more) Oh, oh, oh, oh Won't let you leave me hanging Won't let you leave me hanging Won't let you leave me hanging
