[Verse 1]
I fed you meals from my table
Gave you keys to my name
You smiled in my face, baby
Then you played that snake game
Phone on vibrate, still shaking
From the text you sent my way
You took my soft spot naked
And you sold it for a place
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I see it clear
Who was close, who was near
You don't bleed like me
You just want what I keep
[Chorus]
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
Say you love me, then leave
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
I rise up through the grief
[Verse 2]
You wore my trust like fashion
Till the seams came apart
You laughed in the room, then vanished
Left a knife in my heart
Mama said, "Watch that smile, girl"
When the praise sound too sweet
Now I trust my own pulse
When the wolves come to eat
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I see it clear
Who was close, who was near
You don't bleed like me
You just want what I keep
[Chorus]
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
Say you love me, then leave
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
I rise up through the grief
[Bridge]
I been baptized in fire
I been built from the crack
Every lie that you threw at me
I throw right back
Ain't no shadow can own me
Ain't no doubt in my name
I got gold in my heartbeat
And I carry the flame
[Final Chorus]
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
Say you love me, then leave
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
I rise up through the grief
Close ones cut deep
Close ones cut deep
Still I stand, still I breathe
