[Verse 1] “You left your scent on my bed, Still smells like cigarettes and great nights. You said "It's not you It's me" Yeah I’ve heard that line since I was fifteen I’m staring at my phone like it owes me Scrolling every promise that you ghosted Crying in the bedroom in my old band tee Mascara on the mug that you bought me [Chorus] Mama said Mama said “Baby Let it go” If they play with your heart That’s a lesson you learn Mama said Mama said “Love will make you dumb” So you cuss You cry Then you get up and you run Mama said Mama said “You’ll be fine You’ll forget” If they’re walking out now That’s the best you’ll get Mama said Mama said “Don’t you beg Don’t you chase” So I’m dancing in the ruins with a grin on my face (hey!) [Verse 2] You always needed space Guess you’re an astronaut Orbiting your ego like a tiny god I bought the ticket to your rocket show Front row seat when it blew Should’ve known Yeah I saved all the texts like a scrapbook Red flags wrapped up in a cute hook Mama in my head going “Girl Please” So I hit delete like I’m breaking the lease [Chorus] Mama said Mama said “Baby Let it go” If they play with your heart That’s a lesson you learn Mama said Mama said “Love will make you dumb” So you cuss You cry Then you get up and you run Mama said Mama said “You’ll be fine You’ll forget” If they’re walking out now That’s the best you’ll get Mama said Mama said “Don’t you beg Don’t you chase” So I’m dancing in the ruins with a grin on my face (oh yeah) [Bridge] She was washing dishes Radio too loud Said “You’ll meet some pretty faces that just drag you down Kiss you in the hallway Leave you in the dark Don’t you ever let them think they own your heart” [Chorus] Mama said Mama said “Baby Let it go” If they play with your heart That’s a lesson you learn Mama said Mama said “Love will make you dumb” So you cuss You cry Then you get up and you run Mama said Mama said Mama said Mama said “Hold your crown on your head” So I’m raising up a toast to the love that is dead [Chorus] Mama said Mama said “Baby Let it go” Every bruise on my heart is a page I turn Mama said Mama said “Laugh and shake it off” So I’m shouting on the sidewalk with my middle finger up Mama said Mama said “You’re the storm Not the wreck” So I’m walking out the door with my heart in my chest Mama said Mama said “Don’t you beg Don’t you chase” I’m a little bit broken But I’m still in the race
