Blood From A Stone - Shola Ama

Why you gotta be so cold

Pleasing you seems impossible

Girl you know you’re black to the bone

Loving you is like drawing blood from a stone

So pleasant and heavenly, when you

When you first came to me, and then you,

Started to reveal to me the true colours of your love

But now, now I see instantly, plainly

Like a bitter sweet symphony

You’ve got a split personality and baby that’s fucked up Cos u don’t know what u want, u don’t know what u need

u don’t know what u want and this ain’t how it should be Why you gotta be so cold

Pleasing you seems impossible

Girl you know you’re black to the bone

Loving you is like drawing blood from a stone

From the Andes to Mt. Everest (I swear that)

Honey I will never rest, until I make sense of this crazy

All up in your head

Cos baby I’m a simple woman, gotta make you understand

Make sure that you know exactly whom I am Cos u don’t know what u want, u don’t know what u need

U don’t know what u want and this aint how it should be Why you gotta be so cold

Pleasing you seems impossible

Girl you know you’re black to the bone

Loving you is like drawing blood from a stone (x3)

Why you gotta keep on doing it like you do You know that I lost my mind over you

You better fix it for me and you, yes we do Yes we do, yes we do, yes we do

I wanna stick around cos you’re so damn fine

But I can’t take all this shit all the time

You can’t lock me like loving you is a crime

I wont stick around while you hurt me baby (repeat)
