Uh
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy

I’m just tryin’ to process what just happened
I’m just tryin’ to express what I’m feeling
When the pressure gets too intense, burn some incense
Stop and take a deep breath, release it

Holdin’ it back like a slingshot, ayy
Holdin’ it back like hair ties, ayy
Pullin’ my shirt, just let me go, oh
Cloggin’ the drip, stoppin’ the flow

You already know what time it is, don’t need a Rolex
Do you see the signs? Tell me do I need to protest
All your old ways keep on slowin’ up the progress
Got me losin’ nights, guess I’m goin’ through the process (Yeah, yeah)
I got some things that I gotta get off my chest
Screamin’ through the phone like we tryna have a contest
All your old ways keep on slowin’ up the progress
Got me losin’ nights, guess I’m goin’ through the process

Pushin’ all my buttons, teardrop hunting
Say I’m off the deep end, yeah, right, you reachin’

Uh, you better stop, you better not, ayy
I’m ’bout to pop like rimshot, ayy
Pullin’ my strings, just let me go, oh
I’m ’bout to trip, I’m ’bout to blow

You already know what time it is, don’t need a Rolex (Oh)
Do you see the sign? Tell me do I need to protest
All your old ways keep on slowin’ up the progress
Got me losin’ nights, guess I’m goin’ through the process
I got some things that I gotta get off my chest
Screamin’ through the phone like we tryna have a contest (Yeah)
All your old ways keep on slowin’ up the progress
Got me losin’ nights, guess I’m goin’ through the process

Yeah, yeah
Hey, hey
It’s a process
Oh, babe
Yeah
Oh-oh, hey, hey
Yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh
Oh
Hee-hee, yeah
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, babe
It’s a process (Baby, baby)
Yeah
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh

On to me
You ain’t been holding on
On to me
I can’t wait too long, I don’t wanna keep
It’s hard to sleep
I wanna be free
Wanna be free
Free

How do you get somewhere comfortable
Then leave
Say something, baby
Something, baby
Running to you
Running from me
Don’t wanna keep on
Don’t wanna be so
Dependent on you
Depending on me
Don’t wanna keep on, no

And if I hold on to you
I’m only hurting me
I know if I hold on to you
I’ll never wanna leave

Go on, let me
Go on, set me free

Don’t
Take me for granted
No
Every time I’m weak and alone
Deep in my bones
I know this ain’t for me

How do you get somewhere comfortable
Then leave
Say something, baby
Something to me
Running to you
Running from me
Don’t wanna keep on
Don’t wanna be so
Dependent on you
Depending on me
Don’t wanna be somewhere I don’t know

And if I hold on to you
I’m only hurting me
I know if I hold on to you
I’ll never wanna leave

Did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

Maybe I should be more like you
Buildin’ up on a lie, then coverin’ up the truth
Oh, I thought that ain’t what you do
Tellin’ me that you closed off, why did you take your clothes off?

Replays in my mind, just walk away from me
If she’s in the way of me, it’s way too much for me

‘Cause when you lied to me, oh, I stayed up
But you be fakin’, you a snake, I didn’t complain, no
You were my favorite, now you ain’t shit, I regret it
But I believed you when you said it
Did you mean it, did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, hmm (Yeah), mm-hmm, hmm

Maybe I should be more like her
Just forget about what’s right, just forget about my worth
Maybe I should be heartless too
That’s somethin’ y’all have in common, I’m cut from a different cloth and it

Replays in my mind, did you even think of me?
What does she have more on me?
It’s so hard to believe

‘Cause when you lied to me, oh, I stayed up
But you be fakin’, you a snake, I didn’t complain, no
You were my favorite, now you ain’t shit, I regret it
But I believed you when you said it
Did you mean it, did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, hmm (Yeah), mm-hmm, hmm

Always felt like I was the missin’ piece
But now I feel like I’m missin’ something, it’s killin’ me
Always wanted to belong to somethin’ that belonged to me
But if it’s for everybody, then it’s not in my reach
When you speak, do you say things you mean?
Does your mind or your heart take the lead?
If it’s love, does that mean you shouldn’t leave?
I don’t know, I don’t know what to believe

‘Cause when you lied to me, and I stayed
You ain’t changed, you betrayed me
You tried to say that I was your favorite
And you love me, but you ain’t shit
And I believed you when you said it
Did you mean it, did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm (Ooh, ooh)
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Did you mean it?
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Did you mean it? (Yeah, yeah, mean it)
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Mm-hmm, hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Did you mean it, did you mean it?

Oh, ooh, woah
Did you mean it
Ooh, ooh, baby, did you mean it?
Ooh, ooh

(Hit-Boy)
Na, na-na, na, na, na
Na, na, na-na, na
Na, na, na, oh
Na, na-na, na, na, na

Public perception is often deception, uh
I think somebody needs to tell the truth, yeah
Killin’ my ego through my self-reflection, uh
Somethin’ that we all fail to do, hmm
Why does compassion get treated as weakness?
Yeah, what is the world really comin’ to?
Uh, why is my empathy often misleadin’?
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?

Don’t know how to act (Don’t know how to act)
When I can’t handle that (When I can’t handle that)
I’m stressin’ the petty things (I’m stressin’ the petty things)
How you see it is everything (How you see it is everything), yeah
I made a bunch of figures, got a bunch of triggers
When it come to pictures, I don’t see a bigger that’ll hold me back (That’ll hold me back)
When I know the facts, yeah, ayy, oh

Uh, why I still can’t live with that?
Why do I live in the past only?
Worried about where they at (Oh, yeah)
When I don’t know where I’m goin’

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
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

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

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

Looking for your sound in someone else’s house
But no one sings the same way
I look for peace of mind in someone else’s eyes
Guess love is really blinding 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

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

Bordeux and Non Native

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

Know you like when I’m top of 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

I set it off with you (Oh)
I set it off with you, I barely talk to you (Ooh)
