He was in a manipulative relationship with a girl who then cheated on him while he was trying to make her happy. He had a affair aswell, but it only made him realize how great his girlfriend was (or so he thought). Now he has a new girlfriend who makes him feel great after feeling numb for so long....
[Verse 1]
An 8 ball of cocaine straight to the dead brain
I got this new bitch
Hits me in a new way
You thought you had a piece of me that no one else could take
Rest assured, I'd had a couple
You were a mistake
I don't care if you like the words I choose when I write
When you were fucking him I spilled 'em heavy every damn night
So don't you
Don't you go overthinking it
Don't you
Don't you
[Chorus]
Don't you go thinking you're another
I've had women put their claws in my neck
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I always knew I could do better
Had a vision
It just wasn't with them
No-oh, no
[Verse 2]
She sobbed away for a few days
She knows she's dead weight
Said I'm the first one that's ever made her feel this way
While I'm off working, doing everything to get us by
She's with another, feeling empty, but it passed the time
It wasn't love that I felt
Just a sad sense of guilt
I hoped and prayed she'd fuck me over
Either that or be killed
So don't you
Don't you go overthinking it
Don't you
Don't you
[Chorus]
Don't you go thinking you're another
I've had women put their claws in my neck
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I always knew I could do better
Had a vision
It just wasn't with them
[Verse 3]
You threatened night after night that you would take your own life
So where the fuck is this man?
Where is your shoulder to cry on?
Have you seen me these days?
My voice is everywhere you fucking turn
And your friends are laughing in your face
What do I gotta do to get this message through to you?
It's gonna kill him knowing I do things he'll never do
So don't you
Don't you go overthinking this
Don't you
Don't you
[Chorus]
Don't you go thinking you're another
I've had women put their claws in my neck
I always knew I could do better
Had a vision
It just wasn't with them
