glass

Verse 1: 

My mama, she raised me good 

Did all a good mama could 

So my heart grew strong 

And my temperament stubborn 

So I could be the last survivor 

Said girl grow up and be strong 

Cause the man’s gonna try to tell you, you’re wrong 

And they’ll cut your legs if they think they can 

They’ll cut your legs another penny in their can 

Pre-chorus: 

But don’t you lose sight 

Chorus: 

Cause all they want are your pretty eyes 

No words, just compromise 

The glass feels so far out of reach 

But it’s gonna break, it’s gonna crack, it’s gonna shatter 

When it sees me 

Verse 2: 

My mama she raised me good 

Did all a good mama should 

Said girl put your foot down and be heard 

Cause the quicksand is waiting for you, little bird 

And the road to the top, ain’t all that pretty 

It’s dusty, it’s windy and it gets gritty 

And they’ll cut your legs if they think they can 

They’ll cut your legs another penny in their can 

Pre-chorus 

Chorus
