The Temptations Papa Was A Rolling Stone song lyrics

Say what you want to

I'm changing no more for you

It didn't turn out the way it was supposed to

If you don't understand then you won't know where i've been

If you won't then there's no point for me to even begin to tell you

Somethings are better left unsaid

Despite the desperation in my head

Somethings are better left alone

But i'm left with no words

And all i want to do is shout out loud

All the sticks and stones that you've been throwing at me

How they're killing me, oh why

Every night i try to sleep

Toss and turn in my bed

Thoughts ring out in my head

And i got to get away from here

From the voice that i find ways to poison my mind

For i never thought that i would be

The one breaking my track, the one pulling me back

Don't killing me

Don't killing me

I said what you want to

Now i've done what i've done

‘cause though i've tried to be real

But that's just left me undone

All this pain that i feel will leave a stain on my skin

And the marks that they leave expose the shadows within

I'll show you

I wish that things were better left unsaid

I wish that there was peace inside my head

I guess that we are better left alone

‘cause if i find the right words i know i'll have to shout them out

All the sticks and stones that you've been throwing at me

How they're killing me, oh why

Every night i try to sleep

Toss and turn in my bed

Thoughts ring out in my head

And i got to get away from here

From the voice that i find ways to poison my mind

For i never thought that i would be

The one breaking my track, the one pulling me back

Don't killing me

Don't killing me

Don't killing me

All the sticks and stones that you've been throwing at me

How they're killing me, oh why

Every night i try to sleep

Toss and turn in my bed

Thoughts ring out in my head i'm killing me
