I'm Not Strong Enough to Say No - BlackHawk

Black hole opened in the kitchen Every clock's a different time It would only take the energy to fix it I don't know why I am The way I am, not strong enough to be your man I try, I can't stop staring at the ceiling fan and Spinning out about things that haven't happened Breathing in and out Drag racing through the canyon Singing "Boys Don't Cry" Do you see us getting scraped up off the pavement? I don't know why I am The way I am, not strong enough to be your man I lie, I am just lowering your expectations Half a mind that keeps the other second guessing Close my eyes and count Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god Always an angel, never a god I don't know why I am the way I am There's something in the static, I think I've been having revelations Comin' to, in the front seat, nearly empty Skip the exit to our old street and go home Go home alone

I'm not strong enough to stay away I can't run from you I just run back to you Like a moth, I'm drawn into your flame You say my name But it's not the same You look in my eyes I'm stripped of my pride And my soul surrenders And you bring my heart to its knees And it's killing me when you're away And I wanna leave, and I wanna stay And I'm so confused, so hard to choose Between the pleasure and the pain And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right Even if I try to win the fight My heart would overrule my mind And I'm not strong enough to stay away I'm not strong enough to stay away What can I do? I would die without you In your presence my heart knows no shame I'm not to blame 'Cause you bring my heart to its knees And it's killing me when you're away And I wanna leave, and I wanna stay And I'm so confused, so hard to choose Between the pleasure and the pain And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right Even if I try to win the fight My heart would overrule my mind And I'm not strong enough to stay away There's nothing I can do My heart is chained to you And I can't get free Look what this love's done to me And it's killing me when you're away And I wanna leave, and I wanna stay And I'm so confused, so hard to choose Between the pleasure and the pain And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right Even if I try to win the fight My heart would overrule my mind And I'm not strong enough to stay away (Not strong enough, strong enough) (Not strong enough, strong enough) to stay away (Not strong enough, strong enough) (Not strong enough, strong enough) And I'm not strong enough to stay away

There's nothing like summer in the city Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty There's trouble in the air, you can smell it And Alexander's by himself I'll let him tell it I hadn't slept in a week I was weak, I was awake You've never seen a bastard orphan More in need of a break Longing for Angelica Missing my wife That's when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life She said I know you are a man of honor I'm so sorry to bother you at home But I don't know where to go And I came here all alone She said My husband's doin' me wrong Beatin' me, cheatin' me, mistreatin' me Suddenly he's up and gone I don't have the means to go on So I offered her a loan I offered to walk her home, she said (You're too kind, sir) I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away She lived a block away, she said (This one's mine, sir) Then I said, "Well, I should head back home" She turned red, she led me to her bed Let her legs spread and said (Stay?) Hey (Hey) That's when I began to pray Lord, show me how to say no to this I don't know how to say no to this But my God, she looks so helpless And her body's saying, "hell, yes" No, show me how to say no to this (Whoa) I don't know how to say no to this In my mind, I'm trynna go (Go, go, go!) Then her mouth is on mine, and I don't say (No! No!) Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! I wish I could say that was the last time I said that last time, it became a pastime A month into this endeavor I received a letter from a Mr. James Reynolds Even better, it said Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth In the pockets of people like me Down on their luck You see, that was my wife who you decided to Fu— Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled And hey, you can keep seein' my whore wife If the price is right If not, I'm telling your wife I hid the letter and I raced to her place Screamed "How could you?" in her face She said (No, sir!) Half dressed, apologetic A mess, she looked pathetic She cried (Please don't go, sir!) So was your whole story a setup? (I don't know about any letter!) Stop crying goddamnit, get up! (I didn't know any better!) I am ruined (Please don't leave me with him) I am helpless (I am helpless) How could I do this? Just give him what he wants and you can have me (I don't want you) Whatever you want (I don't want you) If you pay you can stay (I don't-) Lord, show me how to say no to this (Tonight) I don't know how to say no to this But the situation's helpless (Helpless) And her body's screaming "hell, yes" No, show me how to say no to this! (Whoa!) How can I say no to this? There is nowhere I can go (Go, go, go!) When her body's on mine I do not say (No!) Yes! Yes... (Say no to this) (No!) Yes! Yes... (Say no to this) (No!) Yes! Yes... (Say no to this) (No!) Yes! Yes! (Say no to this!) Say no to this, I don't say no to this There is nowhere I can go (Go, go, go) So? Nobody needs to know
