I don't understand
The double standard
You hit me over and over again
And you still get to come at me slandered

You tell me
The lie you'd tell the police
So I have to stop
But you have this release

Only after a couple dozen times
I finally can your bluff
But I'm still the one crying
When you're taken away in cuffs

A victim mentality
Oh the tragedy
You show back up
Somehow mad at me

I honestly
Don't know what to do
I know and see reality
But it's not the same for you...
