[Verse 1]

Man, I’ve exhausted my confidence all in this authorship

Hip-hop is just often provocative

But if I can just pause with the pompousness

I’ll admit that I’m flawed with some awkwardness

Can’t stop it I’m not Biggie or Pac

But more of big flop when I’m talkin’, and often it’s

When I’m with a girl that I’m attracted to

My words and my thoughts get caught in the esophagus

Since middle school, constantly ridiculed

Confidence miniscule, I’d commonly been a fool

And honestly I’ve always been fallin’

For these girls, man I often go all in

Saw when you approached me in the hallway

It all changed, and the way you smiled didn’t hit me in a small way

All day I would think about you

Thought would ruin me to ever be without you, how true

[Chorus: Isabelle Rivers-McCue]

We tried to keep it going

But it was all beyond control

It all fell apart so fast

But I would not change the past

I wanna thank you

[Verse 2]

When we dated I was so infatuated with those eyes

I left my old self at the roadside

I was so blind, never did I wanna say goodbye

So I became a man I didn’t even recognize

Hypnotized, I was thinkin’ I could sacrifice everything

Satisfy your every need, happy we’d forever be

But it was unsettling as hell

When we admitted we had reached codependency

You said it seems wrong for us to constantly be settling

Belittling our own goals, forgetting our other friends

Eventually you had to go and sever things

It was incredibly hard for you

But you wanted better things for me

It was a selfless act

I didn’t think so at the time because I felt attacked

But looking back I appreciate you helping me

And I really wish I had the chance just to tell you that

But maybe some day

[Chorus]

[Post-Chorus]

I wanna thank you; from you I learned to stay true

I know the things you taught me

I keep them with me every day

Though I had to let you go

I just wanted you to know

I wanna thank you

[Verse 3]

So I’m just sayin’ through the failures and tribulations

You’ll prevail with a bit of patience

As a child I was frustrated

I was a weird kid who never had a real relationship

So I was filled with some anxiousness

And when I found someone great to relate with

I gave up faith in who I was

So if ever you find someone stay true, it helps

And don’t fall so hard that you lose yourself

That’s all I’m sayin’
