Princeton Ave

It's time for a change This generation, this generation needs a hero What is a man who lays a hand on his lover And calls it tough love, tough love? What is a man who can't take a stand for his daughter And calls it tough love, tough love? Your roots grow in the cracks of the alleys College park made you Man enough to see, man enough to see There ain't a goddamn man in me Take me back to a date Before I was hostile and learned to hate (You promised you would never become) You promised you would never become A storm, a blackout replicating the one The thunder inside him became your life You called him your best friend 'til the day you were nine What is a man who lays a hand on his lover And calls it tough love, tough love? What is a man who can't take a stand for his daughter And calls it tough love, tough love? Hotel rooms, bourbon, and broads A drifter living life, without God You've done it now, you planted a seed Now the storm inside you, it swallows her Baby love, alright And I know life can be so strange But I know I can make a change I'mma wipe away the clouds for ya I'm gonna be around for ya I'm gonna paint the town for ya I'm gonna make a promise to Give you everything you want and need But she fucked up now 'Cause she's bearing another mouth you can't feed Cease production of a destructive breed Seek help 'cause your pride only makes you weak And what is a man who lays a hand on his lover And calls it tough love, tough love? What is a man who can't take a stand for his daughter And calls it tough love, tough love? Your roots grow in the cracks of the alleys College park made you Man enough to see, man enough to see There ain't a goddamn man in me (There ain't a goddamn man in me)
