Break Them
Jordin Sparks · Other Songs - Jordin Sparks
She's always been there
Oh little miss style
Comes with me everywhere
Everytime I'm close
That's when she appears
Singing on my weakness
Playing on my fears
Wrap me up with words
But now I'm breaking free
Looking in the mirror
I can see she's me
Standing in a way
Time and time again
I've gotta find a way
To break these chains
Chorus:
Though I keep trying
You keep holding on
One day I know
That I'll be
Strong enough
Enough to change
And break away
Show me a way
To break them chains
Whenever it release me
I'll never ease
How do you escape
From where you use to be
Tell me then
And I'll start again
Show me a way
To break them chains
I keep wanting to change
You tell me that I can't
You always knew
What to say
To make me feel bad
And coming back to you (no)
Running back to you (no)
See nobody knows me
Not the way that you do
I thought I let it go
When I showed you the door
But you always
Kept a spare key
To my heart
No I won't let you in
You best do me again
I've gotta find a way
To break this chain
(Chorus)
It's been long enough
And I've realized
What you're all about
(Realized
what you're all about)
You just wanna
Keep me down
(Just wanna)
I won't make it easy
Little miss style
I'm older now
Stronger now, wiser now
I won't play your games
You had me that way
But never again
Though the past
(Something)
It's time to break
These chains
(Chorus)
