Nahko And Medicine For The People
Tough
Came for the Honey, Stayed for a queen
I was a fool to think, she wouldn't sting
Climbing that ladder, Jacob was saying
"She's got you wrapped around her finger", She ain't playin
Push me the right way, right on my wound and, said you forgave me but end up resenting
Oh all the shameful things we do
When were afraid to speak our truth
Shit out of luck

Sometimes the only kind of love I got is tough (x2)
That shit is tough

Down on my river, full on disclosure
Hail fuckin Mary. Are you calling that closure?
You call that sacred? Tobacco placement, how can I trust your guides? To me, they're just strangers
You couldn't fix us
That drove you crazy
I'm just surprised you thought, it was all mine to carry, and no one can change me, only I can do that
That goes for you too, those are some big facts
I couldn't cope with what I done
You'd use my shame as a weapon
Shit out of luck

Sometimes the only kind of love I got is tough (x2)
That shit is tough
When I come home now, things are just different
Comin to terms with, the me I've been missin
That makes me angry, angry like you are
But here's the difference, I learned to love my scars, and it makes me miss you
How fucked is that? The way you loved me, where else would I find that? I didn't think id have to watch my six, with somebody I thought I could trust with it
Shit out of luck

Sometimes the only kind of love I got is tough (x2)
Sometimes no matter what you do it's not enough. That shit is tough
