Leah Jenea - Doin' Dishes Lyrics

They don't ever understand
Trying to do the best I can
Can't let that self-doubt creep in
I spent so much time in my head (yeah yeah)

If this is food for thought
Then I be doing dishes for a month
And got me thinking
Thinking way too much
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes
I got too much on my plate
Why won't life let me be great
I really need to put this all away
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes

Cleaning up cleaning up
You keep your dirt I've seen enough
When I do the dishes we dreaming up
Cleaning out (oh yeah cleaning my mind)
Gotta motivate
Everything else I'm gonna leave to the side (like the conversation, take it back)
(Starting over) Till it makes sense
Until It comes out in the rinse
Sometimes it seems like you're never done scrubbing
Like there's always something new to deal with

They don't ever understand
Trying to do the best I can
Can't let that self-doubt creep in
I spent so much time in my head

If this is food for thought
Then I be doing dishes for a month
And got me thinking
Thinking way too much
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes
I got too much on my plate
Why won't life let me be great
I really need to put this all away
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes

Ten toes
Harder that i've been through
Came across my mental
Cross my heart it's so simple
I stay watching out for all of that regret
Got no time for the secret
Till it makes sense
Until It comes out in the rinse
Sometimes it seems like you're never done scrubbing
There's always something new to deal with

They don't ever understand
Trying to do the best I can
Can't let that self-doubt creep in
I spent so much time in my head

If this is food for thought
Then I be doing dishes for a month
And got me thinking
Thinking way too much
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes
I got too much on my plate
Why won't life let me be great
I really need to put this all away
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes

Momma said run that water when they piling up
Daddy said don't you leave the sink till its done
Ima say namaste
Namaste I'll do what it takes
I'm gonna need my faith

If this is food for thought
Then I be doing dishes for a month
And got me thinking
Thinking way too much
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes
I got too much on my plate
Why won't life let me be great
I really need to put this all away
I stay in the kitchen
I be doing dishes

They don't ever understand
Trying to do the best I can
Can't let that self-doubt creep in
I spent so much time in my head
