I'm Not the One (with Malika Tirolien) - Snarky Puppy

You said I wasn't ready to build a home

Cause I ain't your servant baby

You said I was selfish and always gone with my friends

Cause living with you drove me crazy

Now if you want a little toy

Or a pet to spend your day with boy

Just know that I am not the perfect person for the role

I ain't your mom

I ain't your sis

I ain't your kin

And I'll never be

I ain't your shrink

I'm just a kind of girl that you can't handle

I ain't your slave

I won't behave

Not here to save you

I'll never be

I ain't your scape goat

If you think you can put this all on me

Better know I'm not the one

You said that I wasn't there for you

Didn't sustain you

But how could I have done this baby

You couldn't trust yourself

Couldn't love yourself

Couldn't even respect yourself

My love wasn't enough baby

I paid cause you were insecure

So now I'm wondering who's the whore

The more I think about it

I realize that wasn't my role

I ain't your mom

I ain't your sis

I ain't your kin

And I'll never be

I ain't your shrink

I'm just a kind of girl that you can't handle

I ain't your slave

I won't behave

Not here to save you

I'll never be

I ain't your scape goat

If you think you can put this all on me

You're wrong

Although we were living in hell I know we loved each other

I just couldn't afford to pay the price with my sanity

The darkest sides of us were shinned upon when we were together

So now I need to be closer to the light

Don't hold me back I don't wanna fight anymore

I'm not your mom your sis your kin your shrink your pet your toy your slave I'm not the one
