lyrics

I wake up and I go to work
Just trying to live my life
But you're in my face and asking about my race
Talking all sweet but you don't know what a no looks like
Drudging through the day
Can't do what we want
You don’t care how you behave
When you're whining about not having a date

You’re yelling at her is yelling at me
Any man on the street is a threat to me
Done with all harassment I see

You're yelling at her (you’re yelling at me)
No thoughts no concern
Disregarded no remorse to see

So stand there and fake the victim
Feel like your life is over
Maybe take a look at yourself
You’re doing more harm than fucking help
It's coursing through my blood
We struggle to survive
Any healing seems like a lie
When you've been yelling at her all night

You’re grabbing at her is grabbing at me
Any man on the street is a threat to me
Done with all harassment I see

You're grabbing at her (you’re grabbing at me)
No thoughts no concern
Disregarded no remorse to see

Didn't ask you to do that for me
No way for you to win me over
And what exactly are your intentions
My silence isn't code for a yes
A no from me is exactly as it seems
You just don't get it
So get the fuck away from me

Your violence on her is violence on me
Any man on the street is a threat to me
Done with all harassment I see

Your violence on her (your violence on me)
No thoughts no concern
Disregarded no remorse to see
