Understand once he was a family man
So surely I would never, ever go through it first hand
Emulate all the shit my mother hated
I can’t help but demonstrate my Freudian fate
My alibi for taking your guy
History repeats itself, it fails to die
And animal aggression is my downfall
I don’t care ’bout what you got I wanted all
It’s bricked up in my head, it’s shoved under my bed
And I question myself again: what is it ’bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
And I question myself again: what is it ’bout men?
I’m nurturing, I just wanna do my thing
And I’ll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing
And I’ll save my tears for uncovering my fears
Our behavioral past is thick over the years
It’s bricked up in my head, it’s shoved under my bed
And I question myself again: what is it ’bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
And I question myself again: what is it ’bout men?
