tears in your eyes (sammie's song) - anthony j. shears lyrics
prayer:
god grant me the serenity
to accept the things i cannot change;
courage to change the things i can;
and wisdom to know the difference
verse 1:
h-llo my name is denise i’m 19 years old and my boyfriend never listens even when i say no
his castle is my prison i wear a crown of th-rns
and a satin robe of denial to survive the storm
he calls me out my name, i swear if i try harder then, i can stop the pain
but this is not how it works
his jealousy mixed with erk and jerk drives him bazerk
and he takes it out on me, lord how could this be
maybe i deserve it, our lives ain’t picture perfect
and at times i feel worthless, but to me it’s worth it
yeah, he puts his hands on me, but he always say he’s sorry
most times it don’t bother me
he loves me, mommy
mike, roses are red, my eyes black and blue
all my friends tell me i shouldn’t go back to you
i love you something different
when it’s harshly than spoken
like a thousand little pieces when your heart gets broken
chorus:
girl, why you look so sad
tears all in your eyes
come on and come to me now
don’t be afraid to cry
let me see you thru
cuz i’ve seen the dark side too
verse 2:
h-llo my name’s tammy, and i love my babies
denise’s my first born, but her life all crazy
i don’t know what make that n-gga show his love with his hands
but she won’t leave his -ss
i just don’t understand
she calls me like, momma why love feel like this?
i try to tell her baby love don’t come from a fist
see at least twice a week we end up er
all the doctors and nurses know who we are
the police and paramedics know us by name
neighbors talk bad about us and don’t treat us the same
see they got a son together but he stays with me
ask grandma, why them kids don’t wanna play with me
how come i have to move to your house right down the street
cuz there’s things at home baby i don’t want you to see
i hide the truth cuz just some things just shouldn’t be said
denise better leave his -ss or she’ll end up dead
chorus:
girl, why you look so sad
tears all in your eyes
come on and come to me now
don’t be afraid to cry
let me see you thru
cuz i’ve seen the dark side too
verse 3:
h-llo my name’s mike and with sh-t like this
honestly, i don’t know what make me get like this
this woman carried my seed, i mean she’s down for me
despite my faults, i mean this woman’s really down for me
i go upside her head, cops wanna treat me like a crook
she need a hospital to go and put money on my books
i’m in a room full of mirrors and all i see is her pain
and i’m standing at the center, but it’s me to blame
how could i hit my baby’s mother
like i ain’t watch my pops beat my mom’s -ss just me and my baby brother
the hypocrisy is crazy, the jealousy runs deep
got me breaking house windows where my family sleeps
got me throwin’ food in the garbage that my family eats
got me locked in a 6×9 understand me please
im sorry for every time i ever cussed or yelled or raised my hand
now i admit it, cuz i gave you h-ll
chorus:
girl, why you look so sad
tears all in your eyes
come on and come to me now
don’t be afraid to cry
let me see you thru
cuz i’ve seen the dark side too
