Not a Word Lyrics by Diana Martinez & The Crib

How We Do It

2017

I don't wanna say a word...
(Running for my life)
What made you think you could try to own me
And control me... and tell me what to do
What made you think you could me trick me into that life
A housewife, with nothing else to do but to wait for you
I picked you up, cuz I was starving
Even though it was clear from the beggining that you weren't much...
Just enough of a brotha to lift me up
Your xx in my xx kinda left me shook up
Now I scream and yell, you say: go to hell!
But you never go away...
I'm drawn to you, like a junkie to a needle
And I wanna use you till I'm numb
What are you looking at, baby?
Should've never let me call you
These things I don't do
Putting myself on the line for you
And now you wanna talk
Take a walk, take a walf o' shame
I never wanna see yo face again
I don't wanna say a word!
We had an agreement... that we we're gonna stay coll
Keep it light, keep it tight
Just a guy and a girl... trying to get it on, you know?
And then it got hard...
What made you think you could try to own me and control me
And lock me away?
What gave you that idea?
See from the first time you met me you knew
That I was on no leash
My own woman, my own person, in control
And then you... you were so clever
So "shy"... so smart
Manipulating me with that thing you have...
And now you wanna talk? about what?
I don't wanna say a word
You got me running
Running for my life
