Eve Lyrics

"Heaven Only Knows" lyrics



1- Heaven only knows 
(heaven only knows) 
Heaven only knows 
Heaven only knows 
(heaven only knows) 
Heaven only knows 

My story 

Verse 1 
Went from dancing on tabletops to making labels pop 
For the love of the money so I could cock everything from icy rings to drop 
tops and now I'm on top 
But to look back on my reality happy I stopped 
Letting niggas ruin my world impressed by niggas trying to school this baby 
girl I was fucking too early 
15 knowing money was green 
Puffing too early, body big, not grown knowledged up and too early 
Thought it was cute to flirt with older kats up in they face 
Didn't have a daddy so I put a daddy in his face 
My mami was my shelter but I broke free 
Learning that the streets was harder that I thought they'd be 
Wanting to be grown, rebeling 
Ain't no telling what I'd be pussy selling (huh) never would I 
Instead I wore a g-string 
Thought never could I 
Thought I had to, to be grown beginning of my life 

Repeat 1 

Yo, close myself down 
Held myself in 
Explode by myself alone no one helping 
What am I to do but cry alone at night 
No one in the house nude tv is my life 
Who was I to tell and what would they think of me 
No one understood the pain that was sent to me 
Broke down from the things men would say to me 
Selling drinks to a nieve kid 
I blame me 
But I never really had someone tell me what to do 
Teach me that I'm better than just pussy that's true 
Teach me that the future was written already waiting to respect my self in 
life not to be someone would hate me 
Do positive and positive will happen 
Stay positive and positive was rapping 
It was like my brain was clouded with unnecessary shit 
But I chose to see through the negative and make hits uh 

Repeat 1 

Uh, uh, yo, yo 
Now I'm 20 years old and look where I'm at 
I thank the Lord every night and pray there's no turning back 
I wanna keep my family happy and that's that 
Seen teens in my mother's eyes from platinum plaques 
See things I've done I don't regret I just learn 
>From mistakes in the past knowing now I had to earn respect and earn trust 
Some about school was never givin 
The way you find out what life's about is simply living to be strong 
Stay strong let nobody crush you your body is your temple young girls 
Don't let him touch you 
He'll respect anything you say if he really loves you 
Don't settle for second let him put no one above you 
I did a lot of things in my life 
I take back gotta take from the good and the bad collect that 
Cause it help the bill who you see now respect that 
Young, black, and strong keep me in ya 
Take that
