Hit The Floor

There are just too many times that people have tried to look inside of me

Wondering what I think of you when I protect you out of courtesy

Too many times that I've held on when I needed to push away

Afraid to say what was on my mind, afraid to say what I need to say

Too many things that you've said about me when I'm not around

You think having the upper hand means you gotta keep putting me down

But I've had too many hand-offs with you, it's about as much as I can stand

So I'm waiting until the upper hand is mine

One minute you're on top, the next you're not

You think you won, and then it's all gone!

So many people like me put so much trust in all your lies

So concerned with what you think to just say what we feel inside

So many people like me walk on eggshells all day long

All I know is that all I want is to feel like I'm not stepped on

There are so many things to say that make me feel you crossed the line

What goes up should evolve and I'm counting down the time

'Cause I've had so many handoffs to you, it's about as much as I can stand

So I'm waiting until the upper hand is mine

One minute's your answer!

The next you're not, and once you try

Making the roster!

Just before you hit the floor

One minute's your answer!

The next you're not, and it's your shot

Making the roster!

You think you won, and then it's all gone

And then it's all gone

And then it's all gone

And then it's all gone

Now it's all gone

I know I'll never trust a single thing you say

You knew your lies would divide us, but you lied anyway

And all the lies have got you floating up above us all

But what goes up has got to fall

One minute you're on top

The next you're not and watch you drop

Making your heart stop

Just before you hit the floor

One minute you're on top

Some minutes you're not, and it's your shot

Making the crowd stop

You think you won

And then it's all gone

And then it's all gone

And then it's all gone

And then it's all gone

Now it's all gone
