Brick By Brick

Yeah, he treats you good, I bet he does
I left my mark, I signed it off
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by

He's so genuine
And I bet your mama like that he's a gentleman
'Cause he brought her favourite wine
He has a therapist
And he's not afraid to cry, it's no coincidence
He won't mess it up this time

See, everything you love, he learnt from me
I designed him perfectly

Yeah, he treats you good, I bet he does
I left my mark, I signed it off
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by brick by
So, you're thinkin' he's the epitome
Of everything you want him to be
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by brick by brick

I've been through hell and back
Girl, I swear I'm on your side
Just tryin' to save your ass
A little credit would be nice
I don't want him back
But I know that he knows that I know
That the man you know
Had a long, long way to go (long way to go)

See, everything you love, he learnt from me
I designed him perfectly (listen to me)

Yeah, he treats you good, I bet he does
I left my mark, I signed it off
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by brick by
So, you're thinkin' he's the epitome
Of everything you want him to be
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by brick by

Two years of construction work
Brick by brick, I built that boy
Dust my hands off, take him, yours
I designed him perfectly

Yeah, he treats you good, I bet he does
I left my mark, I signed it off (signed it off)
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by brick by (brick)
So, you're thinkin' he's the epitome (epitome)
Of everything you want him to be (oh)
Just know he wasn't born with it
I built that boy by brick by brick by brick (by brick)

Brick by brick, I built that boy (oh)
Brick by brick, I built that boy
Brick by brick, I built that boy (na-na-na, na-na-na, yeah)
Brick by brick, I built that boy (ah)
