Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, huh-huh
Oh, whoa-uh, whoa, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
You said when the storm came
That you would be there with your umbrella to block some rain
And you said you'd protect me from heartache, pain, lies, loneliness, and misery
You said you'd tear down the walls that were in my way
You promised things would be okay
[Verse 3]
And I stood there in the freezin' cold
And I waited for ya, but you never showed
[Verse 4]
Where you at? (Ooh)
Where you at? (Ooh, uh)
Where you at?
(Boy, you say you would be here for me)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
[Verse 5]
Now you said you go to church
Stopped slanging, found a real job, and go to work
And you said you'd stay out the streets
And spend more time with me
Take away my doubts and fears, and fulfill my dreams
You said you'd be that shoulder for my eyes to cry on
Said you would be that one that I could depend on
[Verse 6]
And I stood there in the freezin' cold
And I waited for ya, but you never showed, boy
[Verse 7]
Where you at? (Where you at?)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
Where you at?
(Boy, you say you would be here for me)
Where you at? (Where?)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
[Verse 8]
And your false promises is much like fake-named
You painted a picture for me, but there was no frame
(You made my future look bright)
And I believed every word
(I went to sleep on the cloud)
And woke up in the dirt
And now I'm without shelter, and the wind is blowin'
You said you'd be there for me, boy, when the tough got goin'
Said if weapons fall, you'd stand in front of me
Whenever I felt trapped
(Said you'd be the one to set me free)
Thought you were my hero
But as it turns out, you a no-show
[Verse 9]
Tell me where
Where you at? (You at?)
Where you at? (Where you at, babe?)
Where you at?
(Oh, you said you'd be there for me)
Where you at? (Where you at?)
Where you at? (Baby, where ya at?)
Where you at?
(You said you'd be right there for me)
[Verse 10]
Where you at? (And I can't)
Where you at? (See)
Where you at?
(See, see)
Where you at? (See)
Where you at?
(You said you'd be right there for me)
Where you at?
[Verse 11]
Where you at? (So I'm waitin' on ya)
Where you at? (Right here)
Where you at?
(Until you appear and deliver)
Deliver (Deliver)
Deliver (Deliver)
Deliver (Deliver, boy)
[Verse 12]
(Deliver)
Where you at? (Deliver)
Where you at? (Deliver)
Where you at?
