Raise No Fool
I'm wearing rose tinted shades but
All I see is shades of
My imagination covered in red
A crooked smile and some fake love
Put me in these handcuffs
Threw away the keys cause
I was a threat
Well, first you try to tell me we're family
Then you try to tell me that it's for the best
You promise that you'll be there if I need ya
But I don't need your handout
You can take it back
I won't be used
My momma didn't raise no fool
Won't let you leave me hangin'
So cut me loose
My momma didn't raise no fool
Won't let you leave me hangin' no more
I got a pain in my back bone
Where'd you get that knife from?
Why the hell is it so covered in red?
I let you walk into my home
Let you make it your own
You tried to tear it down and leave me for dead
Well, first you try to tell me we're family
Then you try to tell me that it's for the best
You promise that you'll be there if I need ya
But I don't need your handout
You can take it back
I won't be used
My momma didn't raise no fool
Won't let you leave me hangin'
So cut me loose
My momma didn't raise no fool
Won't let you leave me hangin' no more
Ladies and gentlemen
If you're sick of being disrespected
Let me hear you sing it, go
I don't wanna feel like my money that you're spendin'
No I don't wanna feel like I'm losing cause you're winnin' baby
I don't wanna feel like my money that you're spendin'
No I don't wanna feel like I'm losing cause you're winnin'
I won't be used
My momma didn't raise no fool
Won't let you leave me hangin'
So cut me loose
My momma didn't raise no fool
Won't let you leave me hangin' no more
