Hit the Floor

There are just too many times that people have tried to look inside of me Wondering what I think of you and 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 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 standoffs 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, watch it drop Making your heart stop Just before you hit the floor One minute you're on top The next you're not, missed your shot Making your heart stop You think you've 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 you say that make me feel you cross the line What goes up will surely fall and I'm counting down the time 'Cause I've had so many standoffs 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, watch it drop Making your heart stop Just before you hit the floor One minute you're on top The next you're not, missed your shot Making your heart stop You think you've 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, watch it drop Making your heart stop Just before you hit the floor One minute you're on top The next you're not, missed your shot Making your heart stop You think you've 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
