  • You said when the storm came
    That you would be there with your umbrella to block the rain
    And you said you'd protect me
    From heartache, pain, lies, loneliness, and misery
    You said you'd tear down the walls that were in my way
    You promised things would be okay
    And I stood there in the freezing cold
    And I waited for you, but you never showed

    Where you at? Oh, where you at? Oh, where you at?
    Boy you say would be here for me
    Where you at? (Where you at?)
    Where you at? (Where you at?)
    Where you at? (Where you at?)

    Now you said you go to church
    Stop slanging, find a real job, and go to work
    And you say you stay out of the streets
    And spend more time with me
    Take away my doubts and fears and fulfill my dreams
    You said you'd be that shoulder for my eyes to cry on
    Said you would be that one that I could depend on
    And I stood there in the freezing cold
    And I waited for you, but you never showed

    Where you at? (Where you at?)
    Where you at? (Where you at?)
    Where you at?
    Boy you say would be here for me
    Where you at? (Where)
    Where you at? (Where you at?)
    Where you at? (Where you at?)

    And oh false promises is much like fake named
    You painted a picture for me but there was no frame
    You made my future look bright and I believed every word
    I went to sleep on the clouds and woke up in the dirt
    And now I'm without shelter and the wind is blowing
    You say you'd be there for me boy when the tough got going
    Said if weapons draw, you'd stand in front of me
    Whenever I fell trapped, said you'd be the one to set me free
    Thought you were my hero
    But as it turns out you a no show
    Tell me where

    Where you at? (You at?)
    Where you at? (Where you at babe?)
    Where you at?
    Oh you said would be there for me
    Where you at? (Where you at?)
    Where you at? (Baby where you at?)
    Where you at?

    You said you'd be right there for me
    Where you at? (And I can't)
    Where you at? (See)
    Where you at? (See, see)
    Where you at? (See)
    Where you at?
    You'd said you'd be right there for me

    Where you at? (So, I'm waiting home)
    Where you at? (Right here)
    Where you at? (Until you appear and deliver)
    Deliver (Deliver)
    Deliver (Deliver)
    (Deliver) deliver oh boy
    Deliver
    Where you at? (Deliver)
    Where you at? (Deliver) Writer/s: ROBERT S. KELLY
