Yeah, how you interpret that is up to you

So many things (So many things)
Why I let it get to me? (Yeah)
Like I know everything (Like I know everything)
When I don’t know anything, yeah
Why overthink?
Think I need a drink
I just need to chill, maybe I need a shrink
Need to hear ’em preach, and some inner peace
I’m always in a mood, think I just need some sleep
Ayy, ayy

Tellin’ myself, I’m a mess (Mess)
I blame it all on my ex
Homie, it’s just as good as it gets
It’s just as good as it gets

I don’t want the drama from the trauma
Bad energy, it’s the problem
I take it personal, I ain’t perfect though
But it hurts, you know? That make it worse, you know?
And the drama from the trauma
It’s bad energy, it’s the problem
When I take it personal, I’ll be the first to blow
And it’s worse, you know? Is it worth it though?
No, no, oh, no
Is it worth it though? I don’t know, I don’t know
Is it worth it?

Makin’ it worse, you know? Is it worth it though?
Is it worth it?
Uh, is it worth it though? Is it?
Yeah, ayy (Worth it)

Uh, was it worth it?
I guess that is the question to ask
My worst behavior is the shit that I left in the past
The first impressions are important, perception is vague
The doubt was needed for a nigga to step in his bag
But really though, how long you thought your deception would last?
You really loosin’ every ounce of respect that I had for ya
This honesty is quite a disorder
The same reason I just fired my lawyer
Enlighten my vision from writtens, parasitic absorbers
Energy drainers, the vibes that I get from reporters
Disappointed lookin’ at the way these niggas was brought up
That get you caught up in a situation, with different places you never thought of
This world slaughters, your weak will and kind-hearted
My mind audits, creative ideas that define artists
And plus I speak my mind, that makes me a prime target
But I’d rather start speakin’, no beefin’ ’cause

I don’t want no drama from the trauma
Bad energy, it’s the problem
I take it personal, I ain’t perfect though
But it hurts, you know? That make it worse, you know?
And the drama from the trauma
It’s bad energy, it’s the problem
When I take it personal, I’ll be the first to blow
And it’s worse, you know? Is it worth it though?
Is it worth it?
Uh, is it worth it though? Is it?
Yeah, ayy (Worth it)

Worth it (I don’t know)
Is it worth it? I don’t know
It’s worth it? I don’t know
I said, “I don’t know”, uh
I don’t know

It’s hard to give yourself to someone
It’s harder when you love someone
Waiting ’round is no fun
Tryna get it a lot done
I don’t usually leave a message
But call me when you get this
Fell in love with an idea, it’s right where you left it

It’s so hard to say, “You don’t have to stay”
Can’t love you this way
So before it’s too late, when we’re face-to-face
Don’t be afraid to say it, mm-hmm

Don’t count on me, babe, don’t
Don’t wait on me, babe, it’s late, these days
Yeah, yeah

I know you can’t stay long
I know you wanna be someone
Know you got your own shit
But I’m way too selfish
And you could never say no
Know you can’t help it
You can’t stay away, babe (Stay away, babe)
Don’t know where my head is

It’s so hard to say, “You don’t have to stay”
Can’t love you this way
So before it’s too late, when we’re face-to-face
Don’t be afraid to say it, mm-hmm, don’t

Don’t count on me, babe, don’t
Don’t wait on me, babe, it’s late, these days
Yeah, yeah

Know I never wanna hear you preach, baby
And I know I get too needy
Oh, but you need me, yeah
All you wanna do is please me
Take advantage of your love
Ooh, you make it way too easy
Maybe it’s too much, but I don’t want you to leave
Said, I don’t want you to leave

Don’t count on me, babe, ee-ee, ee, oh yeah
Don’t wait on me, babe, ee-ee-, ee, no
Don’t wait on me, babe, don’t wait
Eee-eee, ooh woo
Don’t wait on me, babe
Don’t wait on me, no
Don’t wait on me, no
Don’t count on me
Don’t count on me

I never wanna hear you preach, baby
I never wanna hear you preach, baby
Even though I get too needy
But you please me
But you need me, never wanna hear you

And I can’t find
A reason to replace the feeling that you left behind
I tried, I tried

I wish I could tell you
I don’t wanna be with somebody else, new
Honestly, I wish I never met you
‘Cause you left me broken
Now my heart won’t open for anyone

Remembering the times when you and I would hide
No one else would find that funny
And only you would know
I’m better with you and it shows
Because the way you loved me

And I can’t find
A reason to replace the feeling that you left behind
I tried, I tried

I wish I could tell you
I don’t wanna be with somebody else, new
Honestly, I wish I never met you
‘Cause you left me broken
Now my heart won’t open for anyone, no (No, no)

Anyone but you (Oh, no)
For anyone but you
For anyone
And I can’t find, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And I can’t find, oh, oh, ooh, woah
And I can’t find
Oh, ooh-ooh
I can’t find, oh, oh, woah
I can’t find anyone, oh, oh
I can’t find anyone
I can’t find
Anyone

It’s a lot of things I did wrong
But I’m hopin’ you’re at home
‘Cause I’m movin’ all alone
And I need you right now
I need you
I ain’t worry ’bout the games they play
They ain’t got a damn thing on you
It feel better with you

Girl, I’m on the way
But try not to get your hopes up
‘Cause I probably not stay
I said, “I’m on my way”
Know you like when I’m top of you
I’m on bottom today (Bottom today)

You givin’ me paradise
I don’t think I’m ready
‘Cause it’s better than it’s advertised
She ain’t give it to me yet
But let me tell you that I fantasize
Every day, every day
Every day, every day
Every day (Yeah)

Come on over, come and get yo’ issue
Don’t be throwin’ me no wrong signals
It’s been a long time since I kissed you
It’s been a long time
Hope you held that pussy on lock for me
Hope you had them bitches on block for me
I can give you what you want
I just need to know your intentions
And I’ma call you when I land, ’cause you know I miss you
I ain’t worry ’bout the games they play
They ain’t got a damn thing on you
Ooh
When I get off that plane, I’ma put it on you
I gave you somethin’ last night you could feel in the morning
You making me drown, girl, I like when you rainin’, you pourin’
Come put it on me, come put it on me

You givin’ me paradise
I don’t think you was ready
‘Cause it’s better than it’s advertised
He ain’t give it to me yet
But let me tell you that I fantasize
Every day, every day
