[Verse 1: Lauren Jauregui]
Feline with the instinct
Cosmic intuition
I know the truth before it's given
I can read it in your feelings
Take some patience and persistence
Time and a precision
My trust is not easily given
You gotta wait on my permission
To open me up
Take a look under my heart
Run your hands over my scars
May be too much
So I gotta see who you are
Before you inspire the art
[Pre-Chorus: Lauren Jauregui]
So calm down
There's no need to rush now
Won't let it go too far
[Chorus: Lauren Jauregui]
On God, I'm staying on guard
Gotta watch out for my heart
Never really know someone, one
So I'll keep a distancе between
The thought of you and me
Nеver really know someone, one, one
[Post-Chorus: 6LACK, Lauren Jauregui]
Yeah (Never really know someone, one)
Yeah
[Verse 2: 6LACK, 6LACK & Lauren Jauregui]
You tell me not to block my blessings but I'm blessed on my own
I use my breakups to get in the zone
You don't wanna be a song
Don't be the reason I'm mad and alone
I know not to make a person my home
My guard up like Floyd, up like North, uptight boy
I can't do it if it don't bring me the upmost joy, like (Ah-ah)
[Chorus: 6LACK & Lauren Jauregui, 6LACK]
So on God, stayin' on guard
Gotta watch out for my heart
Never really know someone
'Til you really know someone
You just wanna hold someone
[Bridge: 6LACK]
He been missed
East Atlanta Love letter then I duck off quick
Fall in love on some deep ass shit
Don't try to rush or break my heart, baby
'Cause my defense lit, yeah
[Chorus: Lauren Jauregui, 6LACK, Both]
On God (On God), staying on guard (Guard)
Gotta watch out for my heart
Never really know someone, one
So I'll keep (I'll keep) a distance between (A distance between)
The thought of you and me
Never really know someone (Oh), one (One), one
[Outro: Lauren Jauregui]
One
You never really know someone
