Recess

I was too young to see the truth
In my grandma's lap I'm drowning in her perfume
Too naive to even care
'Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair
People gonna say
"If you need a break, someone will take your place"
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
Just remember
Don't let them fuck you honey, no oh
Don't let them try
Ooh, don't let them hurt you, baby
Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
Sittin' in my room looking at all I've done
Everything I wanted has come to fruition
I should be happy but I can't get out my bed
Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head
People gonna say
"If you need a break, someone will take your place"
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
Just remember
Don't let them fuck you honey, no oh
Don't let them try
Ooh, don't let them hurt you, baby
Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
Where is my time?
Gone in my mind
Gone, I can't find
Euphorial
And I get upset
I think in my head
I do as she says
People gonna say
"If you need a break, someone will take your place"
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
Just remember
Don't let them fuck you honey, no oh
Don't let them try
Ooh, don't let them hurt you, baby
Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
