[Verse 1]

It's only a reminder

It's somethin' that I'll put behind me

I thought you were the highest

But now that the room's gone silent, I

I see the way you're walkin'

'Cause every day, I sit back watchin'

You've got a lot of hype, but you remain the same

[Chorus]

Basic

On some basic shit, didn't know what I was dealin' with

Basic

Burnin' every bridge, now that you're alone, you wanna switch

Chasin'

'Til the day you quit

No more second chance from me because

You're too basic, you're too basic

[Interlude]

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

[Verse 2]

It's only a reminder

You left another mess behind you

You wanna be the power

You love when the crowd gets louder

I, I know that you believe it

Until the day that they up and leave ya

You've got a lot of hype, but you remain the same

[Chorus]

Basic

On some basic shit, didn't know what I was dealin' with

Basic

Burnin' every bridge, now that you're alone, you wanna switch

Chasin'

'Til the day you quit

No more second chance from me because

You're too basic, you're too basic

[Interlude]

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no (Ha), you weren't the one that I thought you were

[Chorus]

Basic

On some basic shit, didn't know what I was dealin' with

Basic

Burnin' every bridge, now that you're alone, you wanna switch

Chasin'

'Til the day you quit

No more second chance from me because

You're a basic, you're a basic

[Outro]

You weren't the one that I thought you were

You weren't the one that I thought you were

You weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were

Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were

You weren't the one that I thought you were
