D. Monell Edwards - Swallow Lyrics

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
We're stuck deep like a knife in my gut
Pride got me twisted
Now this whole thing's messed up
We used to ride tight
Now it's nothing but tension
Got to swallow my ego, make a hard confession
Swallow, swallow, got to bite down on pride for this whole ride
Crash has got to make things right
What flew too fast cut you in a reckless heat
Got to own up to my mess, baby, dropping at your feet
Ego tripping heavy like it runs my whole damn life
Blocking me from seeing how I cut you with a knife
Caused you real pain with my hard-hitting pride
Love's a real battle
Got to check myself inside
Swallow, swallow, swallow, got to bite down on pride for this whole ride
Crash has got to make things right
What flew too fast cut you in a reckless heat
Got to own up to my mess, baby, dropping at your feet
Ego tripping heavy like it runs my whole damn life blocking me from seeing how
I pain about being weak
But about love being real
Being the bigger person takes more strength than it's steel
Swallow down the hurt, put this fight to rest
Love worth way more than the games playing in my chest
See the disappointment burning deep in your eyes making this move for us
No more games, no more lies
Swallow my foolish ways, let my heart take the lead
Ready to do the work, prove my love is what you need
Steps toward you feel rough like walking on broken glass
Every word a promise to rise above this trash
Swallow, swallow, shame I cause, look what I've done
Our bond's so strong to break this fight ain't over
Hand reaching out, showing I ain't playing no more
Vulnerable and real ready to rebuild on a stronger floor
Swallow the old me, make way for something true
With you by my side, a love we can renew
Swallow, swallow, swallow, swallow got to bite down on pride for this whole ride
Crash has got to make things swallow
Swallow, got to bite down on my pride for this whole ride
Crash has got to make things right
Words flew too fast, cut you with a reckless heat
Got to own up to my mess, baby, dropping at your feet
Swallow, swallow, swallow, got to bite down on my pride for this whole ride
Crash has got to make things right
Words flew too fast, cut you with a reckless heat
Got to own up to my mess, baby, dropping at your feet
