Jazmine Sullivan - Jazzy's Tale lyrics
[Jazmine Sullivan - Jazzy's Tale lyrics]
I think I've stayed in most
Of my relationships too long
I was chasing a love and a life that
I grew up seeing with my parents
So it was moreso about an idea in my
Head than the actual relationship that I had
Also, I just didn't wanna be alone
Growing up a brown skinned girl, a fat girl
Essentially growing up feeling undesirable
When I got older and I had
A man that desired me it validated me
And made me feel good about myself
Therefore, the content that the
Validation brought me
Was worth the actual pain that
The relationship eventually brought
And it's a sad, scary, and vulnerable place
When you need to feel love so much
That you're willing to accept anything
Of my relationships too long
I was chasing a love and a life that
I grew up seeing with my parents
So it was moreso about an idea in my
Head than the actual relationship that I had
Also, I just didn't wanna be alone
Growing up a brown skinned girl, a fat girl
Essentially growing up feeling undesirable
When I got older and I had
A man that desired me it validated me
And made me feel good about myself
Therefore, the content that the
Validation brought me
Was worth the actual pain that
The relationship eventually brought
And it's a sad, scary, and vulnerable place
When you need to feel love so much
That you're willing to accept anything
