Man with a Promise

Lyrics for Man with a Promise

A man with a promise smashes down my door He sees a future with me, he's gonna give me more "Give all your trust, I'm sure you won't regret Just sign the dotted line, and I'll do so the rest" He says I can't make it alone, not without him But I've always been on my own, he doesn't know who I am And now I'm starting to see just what you are to me Pre-chorus I: You feed off the art that I bleed You're a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me A man broke his promise and he wants reparations He sold me up the river, caused me grief and frustration I gave him all my trust and got stabbed in the back A lucky motherfucker that he hasn't yet been whacked You ain't no fuckin' artist, spend your life exploiting others Try all you want, you can't break me or my brothers A business man vulture, no honor, no class Take your money and your lawyers and shove'em up your ass Pre-chorus II: You feed off the art that I bleed Numbers to you is just pain to me Chorus: Now the tables are turned Can't you see motherfucker that you'vre been burned Your a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me You ain't shit to me Lead Pre-chorus II Chorus
