I was told the true definition of a man was to never cry
Work till you tired (yeah) got to provide (yeah)
Always be the rock for my fam, protect them by all means
(and give you the things that you need, baby)
Our relationship is suffering trying to give you what I never had
You say I don't know to love you baby
Well I say show me the way
I keep my feelings deep inside I
Shadow them with my pride eye
I'm trying desperately baby just work with me
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
How I can get my emotions involved
Teach me, show me how to love
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
How I can get my emotions involved
I was always taught to be strong
Never let them think you care at all
Let no one get close to me
I don shared things wit chu girl about my past
That I'd never tell to anyone else (no)
Just keep it to myself, (yes)
Girl I know I lack affection and expressing my feelings
It took me a minute to come and admit this but
See I'm really try'na (change now)
Wanna love you better, (show me how)
I'm tryin desperately baby just work with me
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
How I can get my emotions involved
Teach me, show me how to love
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
How I can get my emotions involved
Ain't nobody ever took the time to try to teach me what (love was but you)
And I ain't never trust anyone enough to let em tell me (what to do)
Teach me how to show it and show me how to love you baby
(Teach me please just show me yeah)
To let go of my fears girl, I'm serious
Girl I wanna love you with all my heart
Baby show me where to start
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
How I can get my emotions involved
Teach me, show me how to love
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
How I can get my emotions involved
Girl just teach me how to love you better
You know I wanna love you better girl More from Musiq Soulchild
