Emilio Rojas - Let It Go (Young Girl) lyrics
[Intro] Yeah yeah I'm trying to get through to you, you don't listen Just hear me out [Verse 1: Emilio Rojas] You're too young to look that tired, too sweet to be that sad Any moment it all could end, so please treat the day like your last chance I know that's family that you're caring for, I know you're feeling so obligated I ain't saying don't help at home but your sister's son, you ain't gotta raise him You sacrificed your life, when she wouldn't even sacrifice her night You babysitted, playing with him, when she wasn't acting right Don't you got your own dreams, own goals, it ain't right that you gotta put them on hold You went to school but now you don't go because you're scared she's gonna leave him home alone You walking in the crib and she pa**ed out again Your nephew crying on the floor, his a** is out again Because she done smoked up all the diaper money And so you laugh to keep from crying trying act as life is f**ing funny And I know when you showing them love that you're just trying to help But your life will be pa**ing you by if you don't get it done for yourself And the way that you're doing it now I'm afraid that it's affecting your health, because you're living for somebody else [Hook: Emilio Rojas] Young girl, young girl So much on your plate And you just one girl, one girl Life ain't gonna wait for them to let you go So I think you gotta let it go [Verse 2: Emilio Rojas] They don't want you to leave, they want you to stay But you should be pulling away if nobody is pulling they're weight And it's okay, you wanna live a little in your own way Maybe you would get your bills payed if you didn't have to pay for her mistakes Yeah, and you ?, you worry about them, you're terrified And you're scared to move like you're paralyzed, and the guilt will eat you like a parasite She living all reckless, going on benders acting offensive, right And you've given up friendships, given up men, you've given up every night And you've given up paychecks, and you pay the rent just save them She complicating your life because she wanna act so damn basic And you take it because you want approval Don't you know that they wanna use you, don't you know that it'll ruin you And you gotta leave, it ain't wrong to do you And I know when you showing them love that you're just trying to help But your life will be pa**ing you by if you don't get it done for yourself And the way that you're doing it now I'm afraid that it's affecting your health, because you're living for somebody else [Hook: Emilio Rojas] Young girl, young girl So much on your plate And you just one girl, one girl Life ain't gonna wait for them to let you go So I think you gotta let it go [Verse 3: Lecrae] It ain't about what you will do or you won't do But are you willing to do, anything that he want to Because he don't want you, he want you to just run through, many men, plenty sin, pretty slim chance he'll hold you He tells you that you're beautiful, he tells you that you're fine He tells you to go hit the strip and go flip a trick for them dimes Little mama must be sick, because she's cold than a mother Looking like her daddy pitching because she throwed than a mother And you ask her why she do it, say she do it for the money Plus a couple shots of this and she'll go do it for a hunned She's a young girl, young girl, no cla**, dumb girl But that don't mean you can't change, and that don't mean you're done girl And I told her "Little mama don't lower yourself to be a esteemed." You were made in God's image, I can see that in your genes And they all up in your jeans, but that don't mean you're nothing lesser I'll leave that money on a dresser, get dressed and keep your respect Because you's a [Hook: Emilio Rojas] Young girl, young girl So much on your plate And you just one girl, one girl Life ain't gonna wait for them to let you go So I think you gotta let it go
