Dessa - Alibi lyrics

[Verse 1] Well I'm sure it's complicated And I'm sure your story goes way back But you're looking desperate lately And now, is not the time, to look like that I don't know if he did it And I won't ask There's a lot of good women With a lot of bad backs Your man said something heavy It already looks bad Careful what you carry on his behalf And I know he's thinking of you too Not the type to snitch and run but But sometimes they say it's the plain truth 99 problems ughhhh [Hook] Well I don't don't need need need to know But there's a set of my keys left under your door And if you need a place to sleep tonight Well that's what family's for I don't don't need need need to know But I'd put on my best fresh little black dress And go get seen tonight Work on that alibi of yours [Verse 2] I don't mean to be your mother Got my own kids to raise And I don't aim to blow your cover It's your own hell to pay But the word on the street is a page out of Blake Your man made money But he made mistakes Now the revelation's coming looks to you for a break You've always been cunning with those brave escapes but Take a minute now Think this through Give it a second and a bird's eye view Think of the moments you've got left to loose Like how much time are you really, down to do? [Hook] [Verse 3] Now I've seen the way that you count your blessings Like hatch marks on the wall And I've seen you coming out of Sunday confession With a numbered list and all Now I don't bow my head for supper I never do kneel besides my bed But it looks like your afterlife is covered I hope on Earth you're careful kid [Hook]
