Words

Oh sticks and stones
They may break my bones
But words cut like knives
And leave scars behind

Don't be so careless
When the power of life and death
Is held on your tongue
Oh the damage you've done

Don't bring that negativity
You'll just bring me down
Don't wear that false humility
You'll just wear me out

You're hiding your lies like secrecy
But the truth is so loud
Opinion's like facts you deal to me
Well I laid my cards down

Your words don't carry weight
No worth in what you say
So don't waste my time
With cheap cards and used rhymes

We all know what you do
You make everything about you
So I'm turning around
Take the high road right out

Don't bring that negativity
You'll just bring me down
Don't wear that false humility
You'll just wear me out

You're hiding your lies like secrecy
But the truth is so loud
Opinion's like facts you deal to me
Well I laid my cards down

And I paid my dues with you
Got lost in the blues with you
For too long I've known the truth
I've got nothing to lose losing you

Oh sticks and stones
They left broken bones
But your words cut like knives
And left scars behind
