Price I Paid Lyrics

Price I Paid - Miiesha

...

The temple that I made of my body

Hoping they'd come and pray

The second that you came, I begged for mercy

But you say it's too late, late (hmm)

'Cause you dug my earth in the dead of night

Just to bury my mind

But it'll rise in morning light

That time I tried to invite you inside

You stood over and not beside

Price I paid for the love I've thrown away

I'm betting on you knowing I'd lose

Time it takes you to win my trust again

I can't renew the faith too soon

Oo, nobody really know, know, knows

The house gon' win 'til they lose the homе

For the price I paid for the lovе I've thrown away

I'm betting on you knowing I'd lose

I gambled the remains of my faith

On the faint hope you'd stay

Waiting on the day you reclaim

All the pain I took away, away (hmm)

Set the scene that sets me free

I washed your feet, you washed hands of me

Yet I keep growing taller

Here, still praying on my knees

Price I paid for the love I've thrown away

I'm betting on you knowing I'd lose

Time it takes you to win my trust again

I can't renew the faith too soon

Oo, nobody really know, know, knows

The house gon' win 'til they lose the home

For the price I paid for the love I've thrown away

I'm betting on you knowing I'd lose

This is the house of prayer (of prayer)

Don't try win back losses here by claiming that you care

Say it's holier (oh, yeah)

Than just some place you kept running back to when you're scared

Price I paid for the love I've thrown away

I'm betting on you knowing I'd lose

Time it takes you to win my trust again

I can't renew the faith too soon

Oo (oo) nobody really know, know, knows

The house gon' win 'til they lose the home (yeah)

The time I wasted betting my days on you

Knowing I'd lose

The temple that I made of my body

Hoping they'd come and pray (hmm)

The second that you came, I begged for mercy

But you say it's too late, late
