I Don’t Know My Way

Selections of lyrics from this month:

But I don’t know my way / I just go where I go … Yeah, just know that I know / That those days were gold / And a heart always holds all the missing roads

– Radical Face | The Missing Road

I don’t cook, I don’t clean / But let me tell you how I got this ring

– Cardi B ft. Megan Thee Stallion | WAP

Mama hold her head and cry / ‘Cause her son had been shot down by police and died / “Oh why oh why?” / Is what she cry

– Akon | System Ain’t For Us

If you wanna rock out tonight / I can pick you up in my Ford Taurus

– Eric Hutchinson | Rock Out Tonight

Am I living man, am I a dying man? Is there anything I stand for?

– The Head and the Heart | Glory of Music II

Am I allowed to lay down my smile? And be bitter just for a while? / Don’t keep pulling me under, we were meant to stay afloat / I see all the embers, they’ve not yet lost all their glow

– Misterwives | whywhywhy

That night that you colored my hair / I knew something real special was there, but I was scared / Three small words are so big when they’re for you

– Misterwives | 3 small words

Cold was the steel of my axe to grind for the boys who broke my heart / Now I send their babies presents

– Taylor Swift | invisible string

Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me / You showed me colors you know I can’t see with anyone else

– Taylor Swift | illicit affairs

I’m just stuck in this town, I can’t handle watching you light it up / … / While I’m just settin’ off roman candles

– Dizzy | Roman Candles
