playing our part

yeah we good now

turn the vocals down a little bit

just a little bit

i want it loud

here's my moment of clarity

i've been misleadin' you all

givin' you half of me

i've been blazin' a trail and leavin' casualties

i've diagnosed myself

i think it's apathy

so lettin' go became easy

grabbin' ahold

that's the hardest

i know our expiration date soon as we start it

you come around and you feel safe while you're a target

you feelin' like i let you inside

while i'm guarded

it's genius when arrogance seems like it's modest

look past the insanity

glance at the logic

appears optional

all of it is stipulated

watch and learn how emotions get manipulated

now you in dire need of help

you the victim

made to think you did it to yourself

speakin' of

rest in peace sandra bland

i'm believin' everything that wasn't on that cam

but back to you

beauty

let me address our lil' movement

you in therapy but i don't see the improvement

oh whatever's been made now days is ruined

so every few months i ponder what the fuck are we doin'

let me watch my words again

you easily got one of the best pussies that i've ever been inserted in

you real kind

real sweet

real nurturin'

yet every time we link back up

you just get hurt again

you put all men in a box

i ain't one of 'em

funny how you got all the answers and none of 'em

you only dated three men so i'm scared of you

cause with no point of reference

what the fuck are you comparin' to?

you good one minute

psycho the next

no longer lettin' it ride

too much jekyll and hyde

then you subtweet some weeks

busy settin' your pride

i'm grown

don't really need that sort of mess in my life

but wait

you of age

you old too

i control my emotions

yours control you

you bright enough to know when you get impulsive

for me

that's repulsive

how do you not know this?

and then we go our separate ways

just to link back on better days

though i know it's short term and you never stay

you always a sucker for that text that say

yo what up? are you good?
