Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
I know I got it, let it burn
Let it burn, baby burn, baby burn
I know I never learn
I see these women and they standing in my rearview
Everybody acting cool till they hear you
Walking through this life and got nobody by my side
I just want this pain to go away I pray to God tonight
Why did I have to trust all these women
Why did I have to give my life to drugs
I'm smiling when I really need a hug
I been smiling through this foolery, no I can't call it love
See this pain inside my chest, it won't go away
I been tryna find a brighter day
Everybody tryna talk to me but they don't feel my pain
Why they tryna take advantage of me, this is all I say
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
They tryna tell me I ain't getting what I earned
I been staying up late, tell me that you're okay
Everybody tryna take me out, I gotta learn
I gotta let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
I know I gotta learn
But I'ma make it burn, baby burn, baby burn
You know that I'm hurt
As time begins to change, I recognize what I lost
A couple people left my life and I can't blame them, my fault
The one I really love is by my side, she stayed from the start
That's why I wrote my song about a V8 pushing the start
And I say M-E-R-C-Y, that's you
You really tied me back together so I know that you the truth
You know you're lil music magician tryna show you how we move
You saw the light in me when all I saw was darkness, what you do
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
They tryna tell me I ain't getting what I earned
I been staying up late, tell me that you're okay
Everybody tryna take me out, I gotta learn
I gotta let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
I know I gotta learn
But I'ma make it burn, baby burn, baby burn
You know that I'm hurt
