Breaking My Back

Waves专辑

  • 作曲 : Sean Haywood/Luke Gawne
    I know you're tired
    I can see it in your eyes
    I'm working so damn hard
    Just tryna set things right

    You keep breaking your back for me
    Not sure if you know what it means to me
    That no matter the cost you keep breaking your back for me
    I know we'll turn the tables soon
    I'll lead the way, enjoy the view
    Breaking my back for you

    Breaking my back for you
    Won't forget all the little things you did
    I know it's hard to
    Play two parts but you're falling through
    Single mom, two jobs, three kids
    Didn't have much but at least we had a chance to
    Follow your lead
    Never focus on your wants, only on our needs
    You even quit your job to teach me to read
    All of my teachers told you, "He would never succeed"
    Look at me now, I threw myself in the fire
    Now make a living off the words you inspire

    You keep breaking your back for me
    Not sure if you know what it means to me
    That no matter the cost you keep breaking your back for me
    I know we'll turn the tables soon
    I'll lead the way, enjoy the view
    Breaking my back for you

    So let me tell you a story about a lady
    Hispanic girl from the west side neighborhood
    In Chicago, started working for AT&T
    Climbing telephone poles when she was eighteen
    At the time men told her she was crazy
    They didn't even have a woman's restroom for her till the '80s
    Way before they gave equal pay
    Working twice as hard just to see a raise
    All while raising babies, that nine to five now got her tired
    Coming home and struggling to open her eyelids
    But still, she gotta go and cook dinner for five kids
    I'm talking about the strongest woman I know
    That is my mother, the vibrant, most amazing lady alive
    I'm telling you mom, you'll never have to grind again
    'Cause I promise I got you, we about to prosper
    Started from the bottom but now nobody could stop us

    I know you're tired
    I can see it in your eyes
    I'm working so damn hard
    Just tryna set things right

    You keep breaking your back for me
    Not sure if you know what it means to me
    That no matter the cost you keep breaking your back for me
    I know we'll turn the tables soon
    I'll lead the way, enjoy the view
    Breaking my back for you
