BRUISES Lyrics by Luke Christopher

The Renaissance

2018

[Intro]
Ah, a philosophy

[Verse 1]
You won't be scared of the big bad wolf
If your house's always made of bricks, and so it is
She let the wrong man come inside
'Cause the house was only built of sticks as a kid
She had to blossom in the shade, problem became
The only thing she knew about herself was her name
And so she struggled with the embarrassment and the shame
And now she's scared of love 'cause she remembers her pain
She remembers the way, she remembers the day
She was scared to tell her father 'cause of what he would say
And 'cause of that she still dealing with it today
I could swear that there's some bruises that ain't going away

[Chorus]
Ooh, she got bruises, hey
They never went away
Bruises, yeah
They never went away
Ooh, I'm gon' heal you, baby
I will make sure you can love again

[Verse 2]
I met her when she was seventeen and I was up by a year
She hadn't told me why I couldn't whisper words in her ear
And why whenever I would kiss her, she would quiver with fear
And how I, even when she laughed, I could still see her tear
But man, she so beautiful and I want her to know it
So when she finally told me, man, I fucking exploded
I take a gun to a nigga, in a second unloaded
Who the fuck would have a child and in a second disown it?
Not to mention what you did to a woman's emotions
How every day, she got to walk the hall and keep her composure
How the past brings emotions even when she gets older
Thanks to you, motherfucker, I can't barely even hold her

[Chorus]
Ooh, she got bruises, hey
They never went away
Bruises, yeah
They never went away
Ooh, I'm gon' heal you, baby
I will make sure you can love again

[Outro]
I'm gon' heal you, baby
I will make sure you can love again
