[Verse 1: YOSHUA]
I live in a trailer home, and
I'm twenty-three years old
My momma was a drug addict 'cause
My daddy never showed
My name's Jonathan, but
People call me Johnny
I felt that I was really, really skinny, so
I tried to learn karate, it didn't work out
But neither did I, so I guess it all worked out
I'd rather lay in a field of sunflowers
Just listening to Marvin Gaye blasting through my speaker
That I bought from a Target a couple months back
My times were the hardest, that's why I spit facts
My ego's 'bout as big as my ballsack
My self-confidence as small as some dust on a wagon
With the wheels on it, dropped down low to the asphalt
She's to blame but she saying it's my ass fault
She a damn fraud, matchbox
[Verse 2: REI SO LA]
Ooh, baby
Ooh, lately
I've been feeling lazy
Opposite of wavy
Ooh, baby
Leave it lady
You really make me
Wanna say that
We should try it more
Leave the bag out the door, although
Oh it is rolling inside out of this reality
[Bridge: YOSHUA]
I tried to calm down some, but my hands were super shaky so
I tried to pen my thoughts on the page
But my fingers slipped, got ink on my thighs and my waist
[Chorus: REI SO LA]
Loving you is different, loving you is different
Loving you is different, loving you is different
Loving you is different, loving you is different
Loving you's the difference
[Verse 3: YOSHUA]
Get some meat on your bones, young boy
Good grief, oh you looking like a bean sprout
I met her in the wintertime
Monogamy's what she was 'bout
But I was 'bout it too, that's why I didn't make a move
'Til we found that we were perfect for each other
That infatuation carried through the summer, but
Skinny love don't last, it's a bummer, huh
[Chorus: REI SO LA]
Loving you is different, my dear friend (different)
Loving you is different, my dear friend
[Verse 4: YOSHUA + REI SO LA]
Skinny love don't last, it's a phase
Summer ain't even a chapter, just a page
Oh, would you please move on?
It's been close to half a year since all this shit went wrong
Stop dwelling on it, stop making songs about it
I hate to hear you talk about it, just quit rapping 'bout it
Why can't we just laugh about it?
Don't wanna let you down
But I'm not down with that
I was raised better
And now I'm capable
To love another way
[Outro: YOSHUA + REI SO LA]
Skinny love don't last that long
Skinny love don't last
Skinny love don't last that long
Where did I go wrong?
Loving you is different
Loving you is different
Loving you is different
Loving you is different
