Cloud Aura – Charli XCX


Baby, what hurts the most

Is when you become so cold

You’re starting to hurt my heart

You left me here in the dark

Now I got to make a change

I don’t want to see your face

I’m starting to hurt your heart

Hope you fall apart

Uh, uh, Brooke Candy

We were on some Bonnie and Clyde shit

Kept the blunts rolled, always let you take the first hit

When the feds caught us, I said I would take the rap

‘Cause I knew it ain’t easy livin’ life in the trap

I was the Queen B and you were like my Jay Z

Only one who held me down when I was fuckin’ crazy

Ivana and Trump, shit, we coulda ran the world

You were my Chris Brown, I was your only girl

Let you put your feet up while I was cookin’ you breakfast

Thought I found my ride or die, but now I just regret shit

Log into your email ’cause I knew that shit was wrong

Pullin’ up a private photo of a bitch showin’ her thong

Then I look a lil’ closer, it’s my home girl Lisa

Time to terminate shit, hasta la vista

Married to the mob, so I put a hit on it

Handed you my heart, then you took a shit on it

That’s fucked up

Baby, what hurts the most

Is when you become so cold

You’re starting to hurt my heart

You left me here in the dark

Now I got to make a change

I don’t want to see your face

I’m starting to hurt your heart

Hope you fall apart

Now I’ma fuck your shit up

Set fire to your pick-up

And drive it super sonic

Crash and burn it with my sister

No, I don’t need a mister

Cancel the babysitter

I’m never going down that road

It’s easy to resist ya

You broke my heart

And I’m never gon’ forget this

You broke my heart

And now I’m comin’ back to get ya, don’t you know?

Baby, what hurts the most

Is when you become so cold

You’re starting to hurt my heart

You left me here in the dark

Now I got to make a change

I don’t want to see your face

I’m starting to hurt your heart

Hope you fall apart

Baby, what hurts the most

Is when you become so cold

You’re starting to hurt my heart

You left me here in the dark

Now I got to make a change

I don’t want to see your face

I’m starting to hurt your heart

Hope you fall apart
