Lyrics for Song: For The Love
Lyrics for Album: Any Man in America [2011]
Communication,
I wait to see if we could ever get together
And talk like we used to
We get together and we'd talk, like we used to
But you don't want to
You want a separation
And now that's strike three
I tried everything, I work so hard for you
To constantly hear how I fail and abandon you
I put my heart in a dream
And now that dream it makes sure
The baby, she has food to eat
And your fancy house gets paid for, you hear me?
You never learned one thing
No, you never believed in me
So if you're gonna leave get out
Just remember this is what I'm all about,
I do it for the love
I do it for the rain
I do it for the passion
I do it for the pain
I do it for the rush
I do it for the doubt
I do it for my daughter, man
Cause she's what I'm about
I do it for my mom
I do it for my dad
I do it for my sanity
It's hanging from a thread
I do it for the audience
Who understands the need
Standing on the stage cut the sh*t
And let it bleed
So pack it up, pack it in
Write it up, write it down
Just remember that I told you
It's what I'm all about
I'll miss the tour where you told me
"Not to come home again"
An ex-boyfriend was taking my place
At our first Lamaze
How hard that was because
Your voice so crooked and wrong
You were proud of your intentions like a motherf*ckin' nuclear bomb
So I lived in a hotel room
Till the day she was born
And I never knew what words to say
That could get us through our first chance
At divorce
You promised change and I believed,
I walked right back into the same
So if you're gonna leave,
Go away
I do it for the love
I do it for the rain
I do it for the passion
I do it for the pain
I do it for the rush
I do it for the doubt
I do it for my daughter, man
Cause she's what I'm about
I do it for my mom
I do it for my dad
I do it for my sanity
It's hanging from a thread
I do it for the audience
Who understands the need
Standing on the stage cut the sh*t
And let it bleed
I do it for my brother
I do it for his wife
I do it for my manager
Cause God he saved my life
I do it for the confidence
I do it for release
I do it cause I'm sick of being sad
It's for the peace
I do it for the sunshine
For my friends
I did it for you,for you
Over and over and over again
But you'll never understand
(So f*ck it)
So pack it up, pack it in
Write it up, write it down
Just remember that I told you
It's what I'm all about
Get out, get outta my life,
I do it for the love, for the love,
For my daughter, for my daughter
For the love, for my daughter
