[Intro]
Thirteen years too long
Thirteen years too long (yeah)
Let it bleed through the songs
Let it bleed, let it bleed
[Verse 1]
Thirteen years, still no ring
Only bruises on my skin
You threw my head through that wall
I saw cracks in us and the drywall
Five baby moms, late-night lies
You got demons in your eyes
Call it love but it’s war in this bed
You say “sorry” while I still see red
[Chorus]
Thirteen years too long, we both know that
Still we circle back, same old trap
Who’s Juju dad, Phee? we all ask
Five baby moms, two baby dads, that math
Thirteen years too long, can’t stay blind
We keep bleeding from the same thin line
Thirteen years too long, can’t rewind
If this is love, why we both flatlined?
[Verse 2]
Letice, yeah that’s me, I’m the fool and the fighter
Tried to build you up while you pulled out the lighter
Watched you burn every bridge, still I stayed on the ash
Shared a plate, shared pain, shared the same short cash
Elmino, you my habit, my poison, my past
You say “ride or die”, but you drive too fast
Kids in the hallway hear us curse and scream
We the nightmare they thought was a dream
[Chorus]
Thirteen years too long, we both know that
Still we circle back, same old trap
Who’s Juju dad, Phee? we all ask
Five baby moms, two baby dads, that math
Thirteen years too long, can’t stay blind
We keep bleeding from the same thin line
Thirteen years too long, can’t rewind
If this is love, why we both flatlined?
[Bridge]
I’m tired of the makeup on the cracks
Tired of explaining every scratch
I’m done being strong just to stay
I’d rather be scared and walk away (walk away)
[Chorus]
Thirteen years too long, we both know that
Still we circle back, same old trap
Who’s Juju dad, Phee? we all ask
Five baby moms, two baby dads, that math
Thirteen years too long, can’t stay blind
We keep bleeding from the same thin line
Thirteen years too long, this our last night
If this is love, I choose my life
