"Mistreated [Snippet]" Lyrics

Shaking like a tender wreath, girl you know
Take like an autumn leaf when the wind blows
You've had some setbacks
It's such a devastating blow
You've been held back
Like a water drip in the freezing cold
Your name should be

(::1::) - Mistreated
Can't get passed yesterday
Why be defeated
Letting life waste away
Get up and get yourself together

First love yourself
And to yourself be true
And stop letting him come by
When he only wants to sleep with you

Hold your head up
And forget about what you thought you had
You need to stand up
And never let no man see you doing bad
Win by adding your name

(::Repeat 1::)

Get your head up
Get your nails done
Buy yourself something
Something nice to wear
Fix yourself up
Call your girls up
Before anybody can care you gotta care

Mistreated
Can't get passed yesterday
Why be defeated
Letting life waste away
Get up

Get your hair done
Get your nails done
Buy yourself something
Something nice to wear
Fix yourself up
Call your girls up
Before anybody can care
Get up and get yourself together

You gotta care
Whoa yeah
