Some Of Mine by Have Nots
Some Of Mine lyrics
Baby where you going with that rolled up twenty
and the razorblaze in your purse?
I know you think you�re slick and that you�re getting over,
but you�re only gonna make it worse.
Our eyes met across a crowded room
in the basement of a smoke-filled church.
Aw girl you know the world is headed straight for the grave
but there�s no reason you should get there first.
I can tell when I look in your eyes,
behind that brave face I know you�re terrified.
What I�m trying to say is you don�t have to run,
back to your painful past and the shit that you�ve done.
You can still come around from the choices you�ve made,
when the heat�s coming down girl, well, I�ll be your shade,
when the cold light of day is too bright for those crying eyes.
[Chorus:]
Drop another shot, chop another line.
Looking for a piece of the action, but that ain�t no way to find no peace of mind.
On and on and it ain�t never gonna end until you�ve overspent your borrowed time,
But in the meanwhile girl, you can take some of mine
But in the meanwhile girl, you can take some of mine
C�mon girl just pick up your phone,
I wanna know that you�re safe in all the places you roam.
Wish I could say I�m used to sleeping alone,
tossing turning uncertain if you�re coming home.
Hear the taxi door slam and you stumble upstairs,
smelling like breath mints and whiskey and smoke in your hair,
and crawl into bed like you�ve been here all along.
Baby please, just unlock the door,
so I can pick your shaking body off the bathroom floor.
Wrap you up in blankets, put the kettle on,
and we can wait for it to boil while I sing you this song.
Steel myself so I can take it all,
from the blame to the pain to the vitriol.
I�ll still be sitting here when you wake up tomorrow.
