Look What You've Done

[Speaking:]

Kinda wanna talk about myself today

We'll call this shit honesty hour

Yeah, alright

[Verse 1:]

It's like mid '91 and I'm her growing pains

And she saying

"You should change, you don't have to go that way"

But then you walk out and you do you

And you telling her that you knew

You would do something that day

Even though, I was on my way

And it hurts me cause you knew that

You took the pistol, you pulled back

Didn't think that nigga would of fought back

Didn't think one shot could of caused that

And I hate you, I hope you know this shit

Tears wanna fall, lemme hold that shit

Get what you give when you sold that shit

Can't really understand how we go that quick

I used to pray that God would give you a second chance

You know, maybe then you would be a better man

But, you dream until you realize

Everything runs, especially the tears cry

Even after all of the years I, probably never know what it feels like

Damn, and you don't know what I've been through

If Hell is where they sent you

Then dare I say, that I've been too

And maybe we were together for a moment

Even though I never really shown it

Every cut hurts so much more

When there ain't nothing to put on it

And boy you should of seen my mom

Got hurt, but she did a damn good job

I was one of the smartest in my class

Dad, I worked so damn hard

And I got through it all

Even when they hurt and raped me

But I can't let go of the thought that

You probably could have saved me

[Hook:]

But I got it (I got it)

(Yeah)

Cause pain hurts but it heals too

And after all this shit that I've been through

I got it (I got it)

(Yeah)

[Hook:]

Look what you've done

Look what you've done

Look what you've done for me

(Oooh, yeah yeah)

When life's hard, it means something

You get through, you gon' be something

You got it (you got it)

(Yeah)

Look what you've done

Look what you've done

Look what you've done for me

[Verse 2:]

It's like '06, 6:30 in the early A

My mom wakes me and my brother

And says that we're going away

And then my stomach tightens

My heart drops, then I start to shake

And we pack up and before long we were on our way

And I, just keep remember thinking

Why the fuck do we gotta keep leaving?

Why does everybody wanna fucking hurt us?

Someone give me a good reason

Then I looked to the left and seen those tears on my mother's face

And I thought somewhere inside

She was just wishing herself to another place

And we ain't have no where to go

So they put us in a shelter

Seemed like no matter where we looked

Nobody could really help us

And we ain't have no food

Nothing in my stomach for like 30 something nights

Never saw it coming, I got perfect fucking sight

My mother cried on her knees like every fucking night

And nothing really hurts like that

You ever feel like dirt like that?

Did you ever lose your worth like that?

Then you don't know the hurt I got

And you don't know the work you got

That's what my mom would always say

When the devil try to bring you down

God would send all these ways

How did she have all that faith?

I swear I would of given up on it

But even after all that pain

She was still there, on her knees, calling

And I don't really get that

I was never fully with that

But every time she called on God

He was always quick to get back like

[Hook:]

You got it

(Yeah)

Cause pain hurts but it heals too

And after all this shit that I've been through

I got it (I got it)

(Yeah)

[Hook:]

Look what you've done

Look what you've done

Look what you've done for me

(Oooh, yeah yeah)

When life's hard, it means something

You get through, you gon' be something

You got it (you got it)

(Yeah)

Look what you've done

Look what you've done

Look what you've done for me

[Bridge:]

(Uh, yeah)

You knew that I was gon' be something

You stressed out and you need something

I got you

And when life's hard, it means something

You go through, you gon' be something

You got it

[Verse 3:]

It's 2011, I'm crazier than I ever been

And I still get blessed, yeah blessed, like I never sin

And I think I feel good about myself again

It just get hard sometimes, when you feel like you never win

I know, boo hoo, sad story

Young and addicted to that glory

Never thought that love could hurt me

I never predicted that it could be that gory

But I still give my all

Yeah I still give my all

Til the sky becomes the sea

Til everything in heaven calls

Gotta stay strong

I gotta let down my guard

Gotta let them see my truth

Gotta let them see my scars

Yeah, look what they've done

Look what they've done

What I've become (hey)
