Ay, ay
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I love you
When I just really discovered what love is?
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I need you?
I need a second to think but you dug in
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I want you
When all I know is I never want it to end?
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I love you
When I just really discovered what love is? (Ay, ay)
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to that I love you
When know I really fucking mean what I said
You know I’m dealing with a million fucking things in my head
You know I need you like the air a nigga breathe
But instead of having my back
You’d rather turn your back to me in the bed
You know I
F*ck it, I just need to unwind
You know that I ain’t tryna be the fucking reason you cryin’
You know I’m working
Know I got a lot of things on my mind
You know that I wanna be with you 100% of the time
And she like, “Nigga, if you love me then say you love me then
I told you my secrets, nigga then don’t judge me then
You still indecisive? Okay, well, f*ck it then
Your dumb ass always trying to get the upper hand in the situation
Look I understand, wait, no, f*ck this shit, no I don’t
Wait forever while you get you together? No I won’t
If I still feel lonely with you then I’d rather just be alone”
Deep down I know what she want, but
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I love you
When I just really discovered what love is?
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I need you?
I need a second to think but you dug in
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I want you
When all I know is I never want it to end?
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I love you
When I just really discovered what love is?
Running away again
Okay, now how TF am I supposed to exercise
Saying all these words in my head out loud
Were you lying when you said you were proud?
‘Cause I got work to do
Last thing I’m tryna do is work on me while hurting you
I know I’m known for breaking hearts, yeah
But don’t hold that against me I was figuring it out
Really I’m the one your mama want inside the house
I just had to practice matching actions with my mouth
I been through a lot, a little traumatized
But now I feel like big magic
You ain’t never kissed magic
You gon’ try the blow, then I’ma pop a molly
Tequila with the worm and the weed, Scotty 2 Hotty
Though I’m too old to be stepping on my own foot
I blame myself but I need you to take a second look
Probably robbed you for your feelings ’cause my ex made me a crook
Now I’m in it for the books, yeah
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I love you
When I just really discovered what love is?
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I need you?
I need a second to think but you dug in
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I want you
When all I know is I never want it to end?
Running away again
How the f*ck I’m supposed to tell you that I love you
When I just really discovered what love is?
Running away again
(Ay, ay)
Once upon a rhyme in a corner deep in my mind
Where thoughts transcend space and become moments in time
Blind ambition, sat back with a watchful eye
Unaware that love at first sight would be something that he would find
Hold up
Too sweet for words and truly one of a kind
Kind soul convos about how the stars could align so perfect
And at a time so worth it, hold up
I’m lying laying down in the bed uneasy but on the surface I’m fine
And then like, she wanna ask me, she was like “What are we?”
I had to look at her and be like, I was like
“What are we? We are homo sapiens
(Bruh you tripping my boy) We human beings
We, you and I
Deadass that’s it, that’s we
I mean I f*ck with shawty, but it’s like
I don’t know, I don’t know
I don’t know that love shit weird”
