[Verse 1]
Damn I liked you caught me off on the spot
Thought I knew you from a vision of God
What a letdown
Damn I liked you cause you knew who you were
Past all the highs of a quarter-life blur
What a letdown
Do you think you’re the man
Daddy prayed for
Mama slaved away for
Sisters made a place for
Do you think you’re a saint or a savior? Doing me a favor
You can keep your bullshit for somebody later
Yeah you can fuck me and my expectations
Tell your friends I got standards too high for you
Ain’t that what you do?
What you do
[Chorus]
I spent 3 years banging on bedroom walls
3 years stepping out showing you off
But you never opened your eyes to see how good I gavе it to you
In 3 years you’ll be long gone thinking bout
3 yеars sitting back watching me work
3 years making me question my worth
Cause you never opened your eyes to see how good I gave it to you
In 3 years you’ll be long gone thinking bout me
Long gone thinking bout me
Long gone thinking bout me
Long gone thinking bout me
[Verse 2]
And damn I held you so high above myself
I guess you up and did the same as well
What a letdown
Slipping through my fingers but the love won't hold
See me crying but it's never your fault
Was it ever baby? No
Cause' you think you're the man daddy prayed for
Momma slaved away for
Sisters made a place for, and you think you're sweet or a savior
Doing me a favor
You can keep your bullshit for somebody later
You can fuck me and my expectations tell your friends I got standards too high for you
Ain't that what you do?
What you do
[Chorus]
I spent 3 years banging on bedroom walls
3 years stepping out showing you off
But you never opened your eyes to see how good I gave it to you
In 3 years you’ll be long gone thinking bout
3 years sitting back watching me work
3 years making me question my worth
Cause you never opened your eyes to see how good I gave it to you
In 3 years you’ll be long gone thinking bout me
Long gone thinking bout me
Long gone thinking bout me
Long gone thinking bout me
