Stuttering

Jazmine Sullivan

I ain′t usually lost for words
This has got to be a first
And I'm tryna find the reason why I′m
Stu- stu- stu- stuttering

Something funny's happening
I'm at a place I′ve never been
And there′s got to be a reason why I'm
Stu- stu- stu- stuttering

Every time you look my way
Something in me feels so strange
And I′m starting to think you are why I'm
Stu- stu- stuttering

I said hel, hel, hel, hello
And my, my, my, my, my name is
And it′s so frustrating 'cause I don′t wanna let you down
My mind is racing, but it won't come out

Can't believe that I can′t talk
But it′s not my fault
'Cause there′s something that you do that's got me
Stu- stu- stu- stuttering

There′s so much that I wanna say
But something's getting in my way
And I gotta figure out how to stop
Stu- stu- stuttering

I said hel, hel, hel, hello
And my, my, my, my, my name is
And it′s so frustrating 'cause I don't wanna let you down
My mind is racing, but it won′t come out

Try to breathe but I′m suffocating
Just be me but it's complicated
I wanna tell you who I am, where I′m from
Where I go when I wanna be alone

I want you to know me better
Once I get my thoughts together
It should be so easy to tell you how I'm feeling
But I can′t stop stuttering

Stuttering, stuttering
Stu- doo doo doo doo doo
Stuttering

I ain't usually lost for words
This has got to be a first
And I′m starting to think you are why I'm
Stu- stu- stu- stuttering
