When sticks and stones, skeleton bones
Get thrown and break the water very hard at home
The louder you shout, curse each other out
It's get hard to figure out what you're fighting about
Sticks and stones, now she's gone
Because the words you say they hurt hurt

Listen! It's hard to be a man
You could never fall off of your pose
Hide your emotions, keep your enemies close
And the ones we love the most they never know it
'Cause he get all caught up, chasin' paper and never show it
But she said, on N way till I walk in way, till I walk in lay
Then ask you, where you been, now here we go again
When she know that you've been out hustling
But you don't think like arguing I'm fussing, no

Oh no no
No, just put that hand back 'ain't no mean
And that's for real, real, for real
My words last for days, just tell her how

[Chorus]
When sticks and stones, skeleton bones
Get thrown and break the water very hard at home
The louder you shout, curse each other out
It's get hard to figure out what you're fighting about
Sticks and stones, now she's gone
Because the words you say they hurt hurt
It's hard to be a man
You can never walk under the stress
Can't make it .. you can put to the test
Can't think and drink just a mile out the voices
Up all the bad choices you make
But she set up in way, but you to walk in late
And ask you way up in the .. and here we go again
When she knows what I been out hustling
And you don't feel like all you win up fussing
No, no no, no no

Oh no no
No, just put that hand back 'ain't no mean
And that's for real, real, for real
My words last for days, just tell her how

[Chorus]
Sticks and stones, now she's gone
Because the words you say they hurt hurt
