Let Me Go

Turn the TV off
put down the Cosmopolitan
I like to think that I'm not asking a lot
Oh my god this static is bad for my complexion
It seems this town has turned you into
someone you're not
And every other day
I hear another brother saying
that I'm standing in line
Saying please just let me go
just let me go
If it's all over just tell me so
just tell me so
Please just let me go
I won't be your shadow anymore
I passed the house last night
knowing it was my last time
I see the dent of anger kicked in your car
In the rearview mirror
thoughts of sex cross my mind
Looks like the drama queen is finally a star
And every other day
I hear another brother saying
that I'm crazy for lying to myself and you for trying
Baby please just let me go
just let me go
If it's all over just tell me so
just tell me so
Please just let me go
I won't be your shadow anymore
You lost your mind
I lost my keys
sometime last night
when I was on my knees
I miss the smile
that you traded for the cold piece of armor
wrapped around your heart
Saying please just let me go
just let me go
If it's all over tell me so
just tell me so
Please just let me go
I won't be your shadow anymore
