Verse 1:

You remind me of my mother's greatest fear, mm

Gave her life for my protection, through the years, from my tears

Then you came along and tore it down

With your deception, you let me drown

And all the tears my mother saved

Hit me like a wave, mm (Let's go, xxxxx)

Verse 2:

Baby, I know he cut you bad (Cut me deep)
