[Intro]
"Hmm... you gave me everything...
everything but the one thing I needed...
listen to this one..."
[Verse 1]
You came around with your smile and your grace
Told me you'd be there, had me feeling safe
But safe ain't the same as loved — you know that right ?
I was burning inside while you thought things were alright
You brought your friendship like it was enough
Like a warm plate of bread when my throat was rough
I needed water, I needed rain on my skin
But you gave me everything — except what was within
[Pre-Chorus]
Ohhhh... my heart don dey cry
Ohhhh... behind every smile I hide
You think say you give me the world tonight
But the world without your love — no go feel right... no
[Chorus]
Bread for the thirst, but you left me with a sour sip
Crumbs on the plate where I hoped for a full kiss
I’m reachin' for water in a desert of your lies
Bread for the thirst but love never multiplies
[Verse 2]
I kept the faith, I watered the seed of us
But your promises folded, turning dust to rust
If you cared, you’d rise with me, not watch me sink
I’m tired of the hunger that you never think to mend
[Pre-Chorus]
Ohhhh... my heart don dey cry
Ohhhh... behind every smile I hide
You think say you give me the world tonight
But the world without your love — no go feel right... no
[Chorus]
Bread for the thirst, but you left me with a sour sip
Crumbs on the plate where I hoped for a full kiss
I’m reachin' for water in a desert of your lies
Bread for the thirst but love never multiplies
[Bridge]
If you’re hearin' this, hear me clear: I’m claimin' back my light
I’ll drink from hope, I’ll dream again, I’ll find my own night
Bread was bread, but love is rain I’ll keep my flow alive
From empty bowls to fuller souls, I’m grown and I’ll survive
[Chorus]
Bread for the thirst, but I’m drinkin' from my own well
Cracks fill with courage, I’m choosing to rebel
I’m reachin' for water in the ocean of my mind
Bread for the thirst, now I’m leavin' you behind
[Outro]
Let the bread crumble calm, I’m walkin’ into dawn, Unafraid
One bite at a time, I find my truth, I won’t fade
