Lyrics

Okay

Chorus:

I thought I'd die when you left but I'm still taking a breath, I'm okay

Now I'm still here now you're gone and I'll keep singing my song, I'm okay

We been fighting, kicking, cussing, screaming, tell me love, what's the reason?

I thought we loved each other so

I've been throwing pots and pans not holding hands, oh lover ‘tis the season

But I've gotta let you go

I should of known from the start that you'd tear up my heart, I'll never...

I thought I'd die when you left

I thought I'd die

But I'm still taking a breath, I'm okay

I thought I could never let you go

But I'm still here now you're gone

And now your gone

And I'll keep singing my song, I'm okay

Check it out, let me come like this

Let me hear my baby singing, come on

Are you gonna act like you and sneaking out and creeping ‘round?

You're bad at cheating

Thought you were different from them all

Now you gotta look your daughter in the eye and tell her that her daddy's leaving

You're so stereotypical

I shoulda known from the start that you'd tear up my heart, I'll never...

I thought I'd die when you left

I thought I'd die

But I'm still taking a breath, I'm okay

I thought I couldn't live without you baby

Now it's just me and the kid after all that you did, I'm ok

The whole thing make me wanna say…

Let me hear my babies holler, come on, sing it baby

Get up girl

Get up girl and dry your tears

It's messed up how he makes you feel

I know you don't wanna be lonely

And what you gonna do for money?

He's lying, cheating when you're trying to raise a family

Forget that sucker

Drop that sucker

You will make it without him

Get up girl and dry your tears

Get up girl

It's messed up how he makes you feel

I know you don't wanna be lonely

Don't wanna be lonely

And what you gonna do for money?

What you gonna do for money?

He's lying, cheating when you're trying to raise a family

Raise a family

Forget that, fuck that

You can make it without him

You can make it without him

I thought I'd die when you left

You can make it without him but I'm still taking a breath, I'm okay

I thought I couldn't live without you baby

Now it's just me and the kid after all that you did, I'm okay

Okay

The whole thing make me wanna say…

‘Cause I'm singing

Let me hear my babies holler, come on, sing it baby
