Conditional Lyrics — Laura Mvula

I've been doing the best I can with all that I have
All I really needed was a little compassion

Another blow to the ego
A victim of conditional love
All up ina my shadow
Oh, you mek it look easy
When you took it all from me
Left me for empty
That familiar sorrow
Another blow to the ego

What kinda magic?
Puff puff and den vanish
Drop me at the ground zero
Another blow to my ego

I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional

Another blow to the ego
A victim of conditional love
Done living a fiasco
Done giving into a feeling
Taken up in a moon beam
Woke up ina mid-dream
A provisional kindred soul

Another blow to the ego
A victim of conditional love
What kinda habit?
Leave me here stranded?
Think I need to fly solo
Break the chain to my ego

I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional
I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional

I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional
I don't cry no tears for you
I needed love unconditional
