Lyrics
She says, I don't do shit all day and I am up all night
Expressing frustration about being active at night and unproductive during the day.
She says, there are better things I could do with my life
Acknowledging that there are better life choices to be made.
It's tiring, but I just can't get it right
Feeling exhausted from trying but unable to succeed.
She is a timebomb
Describing herself as a ticking time bomb.
I set it off and I don't know why
Admitting to triggering a situation without understanding why.
Little Things you do can really make a big girl cry
Recognizing that small actions can deeply affect someone emotionally.
Why you want to hurt me
Pleading for an explanation about the hurtful actions.
Mama, why, why, why
Repeating the question, seeking understanding from the mother.
Little Things you do can really make a big girl cry
Reiterating the impact of small actions on emotional well-being.
Why you want to hurt me
Continuing to question the motive behind the pain inflicted.
Mama, why, why, why
Repeating the plea for understanding and an explanation.
Mama, don't you love me
Expressing doubt about maternal love.
Don't you love me
Reiterating the doubt in maternal love.
Mama, don't you love me
Continuing to question the existence of maternal love.
Don't you love me
Repeating the doubt regarding maternal love.
Please don't ask me if and when I'm coming home tonight
Pleading not to inquire about returning home tonight.
Please don't push me to the edge you think I won't jump, I might
Warning against pushing to the point of taking drastic actions.
Surviving
Surviving only as an act of defiance.
Soley out of spite
Implying resilience despite hardships.
You are shooting bullets
Comparing hurtful words to bullets in a mental battle.
There is a war in my mind
Indicating internal conflict and emotional struggle.
Picking up the pieces 'cause you tore me all apart
Describing the effort to recover after emotional devastation.
Stepping on the glass because you left me in the dark
Symbolizing pain and difficulty caused by abandonment.
Picking up the pieces 'cause you tore me all apart
Repeating the theme of trying to mend oneself after emotional trauma.
Mama, why you do that
Questioning the mother's actions and the pain inflicted.
How could you leave me in the dark
Expressing confusion and hurt from being left in the dark.
Mama, don't you love me
Repeating the doubt about maternal love.
Don't you love me
Continuing to express uncertainty about maternal love.
Mama, don't you love me
Reiterating the questioning of maternal love.
Don't you love me
