Potential - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

If you just grew up, yeah, a little more, then

You know that you'd be perfect, you'd be perfect

If you just tried harder like I know you could, then

You know that it'd be worth it, it'd be worth it

I could tell myself that you'll get there, you'll get there

But the more that you don't, the less blind I am

I could tell myself that you'll get there, hang in there

But honestly now, I'm beginning to understand

That I'm not in love with you

I'm not in love with you

I'm in love with your potential

I get fed up and then you show up

You act like I'm so perfect, I'm so perfect

A shot of stronger keeps me longer

And I hope that, hope it's worth it, hope it's worth it

I could tell myself that you'll get there, you'll get there

But the more that you don't, the less blind I am

I could tell myself that you'll get there, hang in there

You'll get there (Hang in there)

But I'm not in love with you

I'm not in love with you

I'm in love with your potential

Yeah, you are, it's who you are

And it's alright, but it's not right for me

And maybe one day, but it's too late

And I can't wait, but I can't wait to see

I'm not in love with you

No, I'm not in love with you

I'm not in love with you

I'm in love with your potential, oh

I'm in love with your potential

I'm not in love with you

I'm in love with your potential, oh

I'm in love with your potential
