All In The Name Of Love
Mya · Liberation [2007]
Popping out three of your kids
Thinking everything peachy keen
While you're screwing everything with two legs
Get a call from the bank about my credit
Talking 'bout I don't qualify
After 13 years of marriage
And all the dog on sacrifice, oh no
Hell no I can't do it
You're too much like my father
Hell no refuse to go through it
Don't wanna be like my mother
Crushed dreams and broken hearts
All in the name of love
So hell no I won't do it all in the name of love
[chorus]
(All in the name of love)
No smiling always fighting
(All in the name of love)
Disrespect so many lies and
(All in the name of love)
Going crazy I'm losing my mind
(All in the name of love)
See I can't be that woman no
I'll be damned if I'm cutting out coupons for some milk eggs and cheerios
Have me struggling just to buy pampers 'cause you spend it on random hoes
Wont be standing at the freaking bus stop in December when it's way too cold
Checking to see if your really at your Chris house
When you really need to be at home
Hell no I can't do it
You're too much like my father
Hell no refuse to go through it
Don't wanna be like my mother
Crushed dreams and broken hearts
All in the name of love
So hell no I won't do it all in the name of love
[chorus]
(All in the name of love)
No smiling always fighting
(All in the name of love)
Disrespect so many lies and
(All in the name of love)
Going crazy I'm losing my mind
(All in the name of love)
See I can't be that woman no
(Love) So many people use the word in vain (Love)
When it's conveinent to get what they need
Have a sincerer person
While your siting home in bed
Sleeping with my eyes open
Ain't no way to live, it ain't no way to live
All the stress, the fights, the pain the money, the drama over the years
[chorus]
(All in the name of love)
No smiling always fighting
(All in the name of love)
Disrespect so many lies and
(All in the name of love)
Going crazy I'm losing my mind
(All in the name of love)
I can't be that woman no
[chorus]
(All in the name of love)
No smiling always fighting
(All in the name of love)
Disrespect so many lies and
(All in the name of love)
Going crazy I'm losing my mind
(All in the name of love)
And I don't wanna be that woman no
All in the name of love
All In The Name Of Love
