Just gonna stand there and watch me die

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

I will always love you

I can’t tell you what it really is

I can only tell you what it feels like

And right now there’s a steel probe in my lil home

I can’t breathe but I still fight while I can fight

As long as the doctor saves me it’s like I’m in flight

High off her love, don’t mind her hate

Hate can’t get rid of natural love and I love her the more I suffer, I suffocate

And right before I’m about to drown, she resuscitates me

Maybe my mommy loves me after all

“Wait! Where you going?”

“I’m leaving you!”

“No you ain’t. Come back.”

Now I’m all alone

It’s so insane ‘cause I never had a voice to speak up

I’m Steve Jobs with added unwanted features, she’s Joanne

And when it’s bad it’s awful, I feel so unwanted I cry

“Who’s that dude?”

“I don’t even know his name.”

I was never named, so now who am I supposed to be

I’ll just figure it out on my own terms

[Rihanna]

Just gonna stand there and watch me die

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

I will always love you

You ever meet someone and feel like you finally belong in a family

You meet and neither one of you even know what hit ‘em

Got that ear to ear smile

Yeah, them pains used to get ‘em

Now I’m getting really sick of looking at her

I said I would keep that locket; keep her in my mind for her sake

Memory of an everlasting hope forgotten slowly in time for my sake

You push yourself up, do the best that you can

Study your lessons

So lost in the moments when you’re in them

Determination took over

I can’t give up now

So they say it’s best to go your separate ways

Guess that they don’t know how abortion feels to the child

Yesterday is over, it’s a different day

With hope, flyin’ through junior high and going through high school was a breeze

Here I am graduating today

Wondering if she’s proud of me,

But let’s not play that game

Not today anyway

Now she gets to watch me leave from the window

Guess that’s why they call it window pane

[Rihanna]

Just gonna stand there and watch me die

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

I will always love you

Now I know we said things, did things that we didn’t mean

And we fall back into the same patterns, same actions

But your eyes are just as brown as mine

You’re the same as me

When it comes to us you’re a little blinded

Mommy, please come back

I forgive you, mommy I want you

Maybe our relationship isn’t as crazy as it seems

Maybe you’ll see me in the march and know that I truly live

All I know is I love you too much to walk away though

Don’t worry, I never forgot you no matter what

Can't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk

Told you this is my fault

Look me in the eyeball

I still have your locket, looked at it every night

“Do you love me? Please say you do.”

I apologize even though it’s lies

Tired of the games I just want her back

I know it’s just a kid,

But I’m much more than you ever imagined

I know who I am now and I’m not going to back down

Just gonna

[Rihanna]

Just gonna stand there and watch me die

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry

Well, that's alright because I will always love you

I will always love you
