Silent Riot - The Way That It Goes lyrics

[Verse 1] Dear mama, lets keep it real Very last time you'll hear me spill Emotion's, heart's broken I'm hopin', words spoken, will open to reveal that These scars won't heal back He cut you too deep Still you wanna run back Cause you're too weak, to fight back You're always afraid, and he knows that You always go back in hopes that, he's changed Naive and he knows that So his true color's, he holds back Holds an ounce of hope, for marriage then throws that Back in your face you take it Leaves you alone, you take it Screams in your face, you take it Throws a fist with force, you take it But not me, keep a .9 by me when I sleep Afraid of the day, that he snaps when you speak And this psycho comes hunting for me. See I live with grandma now, gotta keep her protected That was grandpa's wish before, better believe I will protect it Respect him? For what. He never did sh** for me Remember the night that we got in that fight and this b**h almost called the police? Well, that was years ago In the past four years I've changed And if he hears this song Then he know where I live if he ever got something to say [Hook] And that's the way that it goes, picking up pieces just to let em all go. Oh, oh And that's the way that it goes. Unite as a family, dividing a home. Oh, oh X2 [Verse 2] Dear papa, lets keep it real Very last time you'll hear me spill My heart out, it's dark out, these dark clouds Never wanna clear up, every time you fall out Lets put it all out, back to a time when I was younger You and mom seemed to fight a lot Money was tight, both learned to hate each other Then you cheated on each other Then, tried to keep it undercover It was obvious, seemed like us kids were the audience Love you both with all of my heart And understand now, you both are better apart It was the only result Growing up to understand, that it's nobodies fault But what's it mean for me? Will it happen to me to? Is it hereditary? Everyone keeps saying I need to fall in love No, I need to be alone, do this sh** on my own I've grown up, alone and, these hoes built up, no trust I hold up, myself cause, these b**hes, want dreams crushed Getting off track, I just want my trust back No faith and undependable, lying to my face, think I'm unskeptical? Well that was years ago, in the past eight years I've changed And if you hear this song I never wanna talk it out, said everything I needed to say [Hook]
