Lyrics

[00:06.21] Uh, uh, some deep shit, uh, uh
[00:10.55] Like the record
[00:11.49] Yea-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[00:12.24] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[00:12.90] Momma please stop crying, I can't stand the sound
[00:13.35] Your pain is painful and it's tearin' me down
[00:23.07] I hear glasses breaking as I sit up in my bed
[00:27.51] I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you said
[00:33.59] You fight about money, 'bout me and my brother
[00:39.67] And this I come home to, this is my shelter
[00:44.89] It ain't easy growing up in World War III
[00:47.01] Never knowing what love could be, you'll see
[00:49.71] I don't want love to destroy me like it has done my family
[00:54.82] Can we work it out? (Can we?)
[00:56.89] Can we be a family? (Can we?)
[00:59.16] I promise I'll be better (I promise)
[01:01.62] Mommy, I'll do anything (I'll do anything)
[01:04.13] Can we work it out?
[01:07.15] Can we be a family?
[01:09.60] I promise I'll be better
[01:12.11] Daddy, please, don't leave
[01:15.64] Daddy, please, stop yelling (stop)
[01:18.20] I can't stand the sound (can't stand the sound)
[01:20.35] Make mama stop crying, 'cause I need you around
[01:25.13] My mama she loves you (I know it), no matter what she says it's true
[01:31.57] I know that she hurts you, but remember I love you, too
[01:36.31] I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
[01:40.84] Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have no choice, no way
[01:45.72] It ain't easy growing up in World War III
[01:48.74] Never knowing what love could be, well, I've seen
[01:52.82] I don't want love to destroy me like it did my family
[01:56.44] Can we work it out?
[01:59.28] Can we be a family?
[02:02.10] I promise I'll be better (I promise I'll do)
[02:04.89] Mommy, I'll do anything (anything)
[02:07.68] Can we work it out?
[02:10.15] Can we be a family?
[02:12.35] I promise I'll be better (I promise, I promise)
[02:15.10] Daddy, please, don't leave (stay)
[02:17.74] In our family portrait (in our family portrait)
[02:20.71] We look pretty happy (w look pretty happy)
[02:23.79] Let's play pretend, let's act like it comes naturally
[02:28.16] I don't wanna have to split the holidays
[02:30.82] I don't want two addresses
[02:33.03] I don't want a step-brother anyways
[02:35.94] And I don't want my mom to have to change her last name
[02:38.49] In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
[02:43.54] We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
[02:49.18] In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
[02:54.65] Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally

[03:05.59] We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
[03:05.69] In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
[03:08.85] Let's play pretend, act and like it comes so naturally

[03:29.98] Daddy don't leave
[03:32.57] Daddy don't leave
[03:33.42] Daddy don't leave (don't leave us here alone)
[03:34.22] Mom will be nicer
[03:35.38] I'll be so much better
[03:36.16] I'll tell my brother
[03:36.94] Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner
[03:37.36] I'll be so much better, I'll do everything right
[03:37.81] I'll be your little girl forever
[03:38.37] I'll go to sleep at night
[03:39.58]
