Recess

I was too young to see the truth

In my grandma's lap, I'm drownin' in her perfume

Too naïve to even care

'Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair

People gonna say

If you need a break, someone'll take your place

People gonna try

To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes

Just remember

Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh

Don't let them try (Ooh)

Don't let them hurt you, baby

Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"

Sittin' in my room, lookin' at all I've done

Everything I wanted has come to fruition

I should be happy, but I can't get out my bed

Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head

People gonna say

If you need a break, someone'll take your place

People gonna try

To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes

Just remember

Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh

Don't let them try (Ooh)

Don't let them hurt you, baby

Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"

Where has my time gone, and my mind gone?

I can't find euphoria

When I get upset, I think in my head

Back to what she said

People gonna say

If you need a break, someone'll take your place

People gonna try

To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes

Just remember

Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh

Don't let them try (Ooh)

Don't let them hurt you, baby

Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
