Jelly Roll - Cigarette lyrics

She lit her last cigarette oh yeah!

Hey how you've been? It's been a minute
I've been praying for you
Alot of shit that's on my chest
I want to say it to you
Beautiful woman with incredible taste
Baby daddy's gone
I've heard he called federal case
It was fast life livin', winded up in prison
Next thing you know
She's tryin' to raise three children
And next day, she's on back page
Didn't know that shame came as
Fast as cash came it's all part of the game
Movin' in the fast lane
Now she thinkin' Lord can't blame
It on the back pain
Man, now she's sittin' in an old motel
Another story that we know oh so well

She lit her last cigarette
While she's tryin' to figure out
How to live with regret oh yeah!
But she don't get a check
So she feels there's nothing's left
So she's sittin' stressed
Light up a cigarette!

Hey honey how you doin'? Are
You still doin' bad?
Are you still with that dude that
Likes to beat your ass?
Last time I've seen you
I saw the hidden bruises
I've tried to talk about it but
You came up with excuses you feel trapped
Don't you? It's like you can't escape
It's like you tryin' to find a
Way through you can get away
I understand, hold on, mama and be strong
God's the only person that you
Can really lean on
Like you're stuck in a rut
But you can't get out
But the world's on your shoulders
And you can't flip out
I'm sorry it took so long for
Us to have a conversation
But I'm glad I've caught you contemplating

She lit her last cigarette
While she's tryin' to figure out
How to live with regret oh yeah!
But she don't get a check
So she feels there's nothing's left
So she's sittin' stressed
Light up a cigarette!

And she don't want to
Spend another night alone
She don't got nobody she can call her own
When it's cold, no one knows
All the places that girl go

She lit her last cigarette
While she's tryin' to figure out
How to live with regret (nobody knows)
Oh yeah! But she don't get a check
So she feels there's nothing's left
And she's just sittin' stressed
Light up a cigarette! (nobody know's)
