[Intro: Jhené Aiko]
'Cause, I love me
I love me enough for the both of us
That’s why you trust me
I know you been through more than most of us
[Verse: Yung Shakur]
Look, look
Have I ever loved a girl
Course I did
Have I ever fell in love
Look I don't know
Don't got no time I know I’m busy tryna get this dough
But how Im supposed to feel this high if I'm staying on the low
I started changing I know I'm going through adolescence
My life is dangerous keeping safe by counting my blessings
Old friends getting mad they didn't make the guest list
And I don't even wanna talk about my other ex's
Proper strеssing, my little cousin he wrote to mе
I came from nothing, my life ain't up for discussion, the people that kept on bluffing are saying how they were close to me
We're never bros to me
All this shits annoying me
Teaching kids the meaning of life Is my priority
Prince of the City right now, I call that royalty
People getting jealous so now they wanna have war with me
Couldn’t give a fuck about love
I just want loyalty
Mad the way your friends around can turn into your foes uh
They would never raise a brow but you wan’ ride for bros uh
Living life breaking the rules but you stick to a code uh
I ain't got shit to lose, I’m stacking dough uh
I'm tryna make my own mother proud
I'm tryna focus on myself I'm tryna make it out
But now i’m stuck in lockdown, and I'm feeling locked out of my room
Can no one hear me scream and shout
Is it just me or am I talking cause I lost feeling
I'm tryna wake up every morning but for what reason
Don't say I love you very much cuz' it could lose meaning
Maybe I'm just feeling psycho think I need healing
Right now I doubt that healing, could ever numb the pain
Don't you ever fall in love don't wanna love again
Don't ever tell me that you love me I won't feel the same
Yes I know that men are trash and I can take the blame
But I'm so scared about my open scars
And if I fall in love I'm falling hard
I'm tryna hold all your emotions cuz I'm scared that we could fall apart
You are the light that can defeat the dark
I feel your soul through your beating heart
To keep you safe I've gotta play my part
But I'm the hottest in the scene I haven't figured out yet who I are
I'm tryna go off like a shooting star
I'm tryna focus on the music, I know sometimes I be stupid but look
Good guy, something that I'm just supposed to be
Never chose this life but a leader is what I chose to be
Lost so many friends and some people that I kept close to me
Did it by myself I never liked nobody holding me
Want you by my side but I'm scared, to keep you close to me
At lot of people envy some guys, would put a hole in me
Was only 13 when the world, started doubting me
6 years later same people saying they're proud of me
[Outro: Jhené Aiko]
So what are you
What are you, what are you so afraid of?
Darling, you
You give, but you cannot take love
