Control Lyrics

Moses Mayfield Control

if I could find a reason
I would hold onto you
but I release, I revoke
I don't' need you
if you could open up your eyes to see
every night you're out cutting yourself,
your daughter bleeds

and I'll go…alone
and I'll go…alone

all my life I
I wanted to tell you
wanted to tell you more
all these nights I've
told myself that
you were the only one

who could change this wrong into right
who could make this black into white

if you don't like the way I'm living today
I'll keep it in mind
as I casually dismiss all you say
you don't listen,
you just preach away
shut my eyes, grit my teeth
while you piss in my face

and I'll go…alone
and I'll go…alone

all my life I
I wanted to tell you
wanted to tell you more
all these nights I've
told myself that
you were the only one

I don't care about it
I don't mind
I've seen you through
a million times
I …I lose
control

all my life I
wanted to tell you
wanted to tell you more
all my life I
wanted to tell you
I wanted to tell you more…
