Should've dressed up in heels
Should've shelved all my ideals
Cause you really had me feel
Like everything we had was real
But now the man that set me free
Got me lock up in a penitentiary
Keep saying he's changing but he's doing the same thing and can't wait till the day that I leave
Where were you when I was locked in prison
Why are scared now that I'm lost and found
Crying out, Crying out
Begging me, Begging me to break you out
But where were you when I was locked in prison
Shoulda just let me heal
Gave me time and space to deal
With all the pain you made me feel
Maybe I'd be your baby still
But why dress up when the man you love regardless won't stay true
Why make love to the man you love when he loving ya crew
Why stress out and not go out when he out there with his dudes
Why stay quiet and risk your life for a man that's killing you.
Where were you when
Where were you when I was locked in prison
Why are scared now that I'm lost and found
Crying out, Crying out
Begging me, Begging me to break you out
But where were you when I was locked in prison
