Some Of Mine - Have Nots

Baby where you going with that rolled up twenty

And the razorblaze in your purse?

I know you think you’re slick and that you’re getting over

But you’re only gonna make it worse

Our eyes met across a crowded room

In the basement of a smoke-filled church

Aw girl you know the world is headed straight for the grave

But there’s no reason you should get there first

I can tell when I look in your eyes

Behind that brave face I know you’re terrified

What I’m trying to say is you don’t have to run

Back to your painful past and the shit that you’ve done

You can still come around from the choices you’ve made

When the heat’s coming down girl, well, I’ll be your shade

When the cold light of day is too bright for those crying eyes

Drop another shot, chop another line

Looking for a piece of the action, but that ain’t no way to find no peace of

mind

On and on and it ain’t never gonna end until you’ve overspent your borrowed time

But in the meanwhile girl, you can take some of mine

But in the meanwhile girl, you can take some of mine

C’mon girl just pick up your phone

I wanna know that you’re safe in all the places you roam

Wish I could say I’m used to sleeping alone

Tossing turning uncertain if you’re coming home

Hear the taxi door slam and you stumble upstairs

Smelling like breath mints and whiskey and smoke in your hair

And crawl into bed like you’ve been here all along

Baby please, just unlock the door

So I can pick your shaking body off the bathroom floor

Wrap you up in blankets, put the kettle on

And we can wait for it to boil while I sing you this song

Steel myself so I can take it all

From the blame to the pain to the vitriol

I’ll still be sitting here when you wake up tomorrow
