Title: “Can’t Let You Go (Damn Girl)”
(Verse 1)
Damn girl, you smoke up all my weed,
Leavin’ ashes on the table, that’s your dirty little creed.
Clothes on the floor, dishes piled high,
I’m workin’ all day, but you don’t even try.
Fridge stay empty, stomach starves at night,
When you cook it’s a mess, can’t get one thing right.
I scream, I curse, I’m ready to walk,
But when I see your face, I can’t help but talk.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every time I’m out the door,
You pull me back just like before.
(Chorus – groovy, Al Green disco vibe)
I don’t want you, but I love you, damn…
(Yeah, you drive me crazy, girl, but here I am…)
I don’t need you, but I need you, damn…
(Every fight we fight, we start again…)
Oh girl, you break me down so low,
But I can’t let you go… no, I can’t let you go.
(Verse 2)
Living room’s a warzone, bottles on the floor,
Neighbors knockin’, sayin’, “What’s that noise next door?”
I pay the bills, but you don’t give a fuck,
Just sittin’ on the couch, waitin’ on my luck.
I swear to God, I’m done, I can’t take no more,
Then you kiss me on the lips, and I’m yours once more.
It’s a cycle of pain, but it feels so sweet,
Drama’s the rhythm, and I’m stuck on the beat.
(Bridge – soulful breakdown)
Why, oh why, do I fall every time?
You curse my name, but you’re still mine.
I try to leave, but I’m chained to your fire,
Love and hate, baby, it’s my one desire.
(Chorus – repeat, louder, funkier)
I don’t want you, but I love you, damn…
(Yeah, you drive me crazy, girl, but here I am…)
I don’t need you, but I need you, damn…
(Every fight we fight, we start again…)
Oh girl, you break me down so low,
But I can’t let you go… no, I can’t let you go.
(Outro – groovy fade-out, disco bass)
Damn girl… you smoke all my weed…
You don’t cook, you don’t clean…
But I still love you… yeah…
(Can’t… let… you… go…)
