When my heart aches, I´m drowning, pain won´t go away And in my cup´s brown, fills my brain, won´t go away
These five yellow girls all on parade asphyxiate (Goddamn)
Still stuck in a box tryna clear my name (Y´all know the deal, woo) Still trapped in a box tryna clear my name (It´s only real) And in my cup´s brown, fills my brain (You can´t stop me) And in my cup´s brown, fills my brain (You can´t stop me, yeah) Still trapped in a box tryna clear my name (Y´all know the deal) Won´t go away (It´s only real) I´m afraid (Your love, you can´t stop me) Your love will blow me away (You can´t stop me, yeah, woo)
Am I dumb (Yeah, yeah) All ´cause I numb the pain? (Yeah, yeah) Am I just another runaway? (Yeah, yeah) Runaway (Yeah, yeah, yeah, let´s go!)
