Group 1 Crew – Burn lyrics

[Verse 1]
Honestly I feel like I really could die
All this pain man is keepin me wantin to cry
'Cause all I know is everything that we been tryin
I feel it killin us and, baby, we slowly been dying
Every time that we cross every line
Claiming we love each other but we lie
Real love don't keep you feelin so deprived
Should be the feelin that keeps you alive
But, girl, we done promised ourselves many times
That we gonna stop, but we don't even try
And God is so good, he forgives every time
And I wanna be more than a night, more than a night
Been lost for a while, and I wanna come home
The places I've been got me feelin alone
Every part of my heart wanting me to let go
But it's hard to say no

[Chorus]
I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turn to flames, the ashes rain inside
But know that underneath it all
There's hope beyond the years of hurt
So you can leave it all behind
And watch it burn, burn, burn
Let it burn, burn, burn
Watch it burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn


[Verse 2]
It's been too many years, she don't know what to do with her time when she home
Mama's been workin so hard, tryna make up for the fact that daddy is gone
She think I don't hear all the cryin that she doin in bed all alone
But these walls are thin like the ice that I just keep on skatin on
Hold up, hold up
Mama, I know that you feel it's your fault
Nothin you did could've made someone stay when they wanted to leave deep inside of their heart
All you can do is forgive him
Try to envision
You movin on past the pain and the prison
That you've been stuck in, about to erupt in, I know there's a better life you could be livin

[Chorus]
I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turn to flames, the ashes rain inside
But know that underneath it all
There's hope beyond the years of hurt
So you can leave it all behind
And watch it burn, burn, burn

[Verse 3]
You're more than what you see in the mirror
The reflection only shows where you've been
Don't you know the story's far from over
A chapter ends, another has to begin
So grow your wings, and begin to fly
And write your dreams all across the sky
Let the past be the wind that carries you higher
We in the clouds, sing it with me now


[Chorus]
I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turn to flames, the ashes rain inside
But know that underneath it all
There's hope beyond the years of hurt
So you can leave it all behind
And watch it burn, burn, burn
Let it burn, burn, burn
Watch it burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn...
