Know Me Yet - Etham

You said, hey do you sing, i smiled, yeah everything Then i didn't say another word I got into the car Went to some other bar And i never thought i'd see you again Three days later here we are in your room talking trash About all the things that she did behind your back I'm hanging on every word that you've said And you haven't even kissed me yet You like to talk a lot but i still don't know what you're thinking When you look at me Sometimes the sweetest words can really start to hurt when you Can't tell what they mean Cause i've been thinking of you all day long Wondering how long it will be before you're gone You're already playing games with my head And you haven't even kissed me yet You haven't even kissed me yet

Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It's for them niggas like me) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It don't matter what they say 'bout you) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Let me know Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It's for them niggas like me) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Some things we can't explain Why do we act this way? Why don't we make it easier for the world to change someday? Sometimes I contemplate Some things my heart can't take Why do we hurt one another, fight our brother? Kill and rape? Love can trump it all I know you've seen it all I know you're a star, you just have to believe in who you are Who can you love? Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It's for them niggas like me) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It don't matter what they say 'bout you) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Let me know Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It's for them niggas like me) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? With living comes with ills Don't let 'em make you feel like the world can't heal It's hard out here Despite your fears, keep holding on With all those tears, you can hold 'em off How could somebody else know you if you don't know you? You're searchin', but what's missin' is your heart Who can I love? Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It's for them niggas like me) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Let me know Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It don't matter what they say 'bout you) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else? Who can I love when they tell me I can't love myself? Let me know (It's for them niggas like me) How in the hell could I possibly love someone else?

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
