Stronger Than Me - Empire Cast, Tisha Campbell, Opal Staples

You should be stronger than me

You been here seven years longer than me

Don’t you know you supposed to be the man?

Not pale in comparison to who you think I am

You always wanna talk it through, I don’t care

I always have to comfort you when I’m there

But that’s what I need you to do, stroke my hair

'Cause I’ve forgotten all of young love’s joy

Feel like a lady and you my ladyboy

You should be stronger than me

But instead you’re longer than frozen turkey

Why’d you always put me in control?

All I need is for my man to live up to his role

Always wanna talk it through, I’m okay

Always have to comfort you every day

But that’s what I need you to do, are you gay?

'Cause I’ve forgotten all of young love’s joy

Feel like a lady, and you my ladyboy

He said, «The respect I made you earn

Thought you had so many lessons to learn»

I said, «You don’t know what love is, get a grip

Sound as if you’re reading from some other tired script»

I’m not gonna meet your mother anytime

I just wanna grip your body over mine

Please tell me why you think that’s a crime

I’ve forgotten all of young love’s joy

Feel like a lady and you my ladyboy

You should be stronger than me

You should be stronger than me

You should be stronger than me

You should be stronger than me
