He was an easy kid
Well, relatively. He was cheaply rid
Sensitive but, well at least he'd piss
Off and let us be and he'd be fixed
We got more to work on, really big
Issues we don't wanna grieve him with
The kid is occupied
The internet will find
Filler for the mind
Did I just hear a stripper on the 'puter
No, 'cause he's a kid
Back to me now, I got grief amid
Tryna be a parent, three I bred
The youngest one is gonna be the best
He'd better be 'cause we don't need the stress
I told him that and he said "neat" and left
To the web. I think he's screen obsessed
I tell him to get off
I tell him to get off
But then I get hit with another thing
I'll come back to this
Parenting's hard, I wish I coulda practiced it
The older two hate me, I feel so needy, kin
Well
At least I got an easy kid
Dad always told me to know my worth
Find a good man who'll go to my church
Bind my hand with a golden circle
But I grind, I grab, I blow, I flirt
Then I met the dreamy kid
Stole my heart so completely kid
In love, tryna get freaky with
And he said no 'till I got needy, kid
Then he got needy
Everyday only wanna see me
I don't mind, we can make the bed get squeaky
Go downstairs, his mom calls me sweetie
I can tell he pensive
First time he been shown attention
I'll show him some, I'll show him love
I'm sure he'll UNGH when I suck attentive
Then he went to college
I'm stuck behind but I got it
When he gets back, we gon' get down
That's all plotted
But my needs got bad timing
There's another guy I spotted
I'll lay him down and I'll ride it
Having fun and get steamy with it
Then I'm found out by the dreamy kid
I guess my dad was right
Who gon' love me
Cause truthfully
I've assumed it's only me
And the patterns I've built myself say love's in a phone screen
Please don't love me
Please don't hold me
Please don't know me
I'll suppress myself
Better that than loved yet lonely
Obama said he was eyein' Bruce
Cause the rock star was a quiet dude
He was shocked, bored by the giant who'd
Heard the crowd roar through the highest roof
Bruce said that's normal for an artist
You write 'cause then your heart is
Heard and understood now
When it never was before this
Which I guess means that I want to be known and loved
But I'm scared, ensnared by older grudges
Where was the love when they thought I was easy
I want more than touch if you think that I'm dreamy
I'm sorry to open up, sounding so needy
But where was the love back when loving was easy
