[Verse]

Feelin like emotion's too strong

Feel like everything we do wrong

Probably think about it later on

Probably gonna have to hit the bong

I ain't tryna ruminate

Know you messed up, made a few mistakes

Now you lookin at me with the stupid face

I don't wanna lie, it's the truth it takes

Two to make it work

So I'm clockin in, puttin overtime so we got to win

Don't compare your boy to what you got from them

I already told you I'm the opposite

Come slide with a nigga

Chillin like a villain, come vibe with a nigga

Fuck about a ceiling, get high with a nigga

Baby girl don't lie to a nigga

Keep it transparent, don't be hiding your feelings

Talk to em, Noah


[Chorus]

And I ain't wanna say nothin

But I'm in too deep, gotta say somethin

Like my name J. Reed, gotta stay undercover

My feelings while she play a brotha

Oh-oh, and now she wanna talk to me

Oh-oh, your heart I did a robbery

Oh-oh, I know that God be watching me

But if its over right now, put it all on me


[Verse]

I know that I should talk to you

But I'm finding it so hard to do

I'm feeling like my heart's confused

Thinking maybe I should start anew

With somebody that's not like you

But will she cook me food

Or deal with attitude moves when I switch moods

I'm a Capricorn baby, I'm a complex dude

I know I be aloof, but I need love too

Will you give it to a nigga

Look, I'm far from perfect

I dig the way you diggin deep beyond the surface

The energy you givin me is oh so worth it

Heaven and earth is combining when I'm behind your curtain

And I am certain your type is hard to find

Trust I've been searchin

Stimulate my mind with the higher learnin

I really want this thing to work, girl this time its urgent


[Chorus]

And I ain't wanna say nothin

But I'm in too deep, gotta say somethin

Like my name J. Reed, gotta stay undercover

My feelings while she play a brotha

Oh-oh, and now she wanna talk to me

Oh-oh, your heart I did a robbery

Oh-oh, I know that God be watching me

But if its over right now, put it all on me

And I ain't wanna say nothin

But I'm in too deep, gotta say somethin

Like my name J. Reed, gotta stay undercover

My feelings while she play a brotha

Oh-oh, and now she wanna talk to me

Oh-oh, your heart I did a robbery

Oh-oh, I know that God be watching me

But if its over right now, put it all on me


[Bridge]

Oh, I'm in too deep

Oh, I'm in too deep

Oh, I'm in too deep

Oh, I'm in too deep

Oh, oh, I'm in too deep

I'm in too deep

I'm in too deep


[Verse]

Tried to call again, she ain't pick up

Guess I'm probably somebody that she been sick of

We had problems but wish that I didn't give up

When I turn to a typical type of nigga

Wasn't always this thoughtless, no, I remember

Miss the days when I used to be so green

Young hopeless romantic with big heart

Got it broken by age of like twenty three

I ain't really recover, I just got under the covers

And made it hard to discover the real thing

That I can cry if I wanna, its alright if I loved her

It takes time, no rushing the healing

But I chose to fuck for the feeling

With my soul corrupt and reeling

I tied hold to lust and I've had enough of this drug

The high is ending

Side effects, I don't feel no emotion

For real when I'm stroking

I think I'm an addict

I regret every video opened

That shifted my focus to basement from attic

Used to at least attempt at romantic

Wrote dates on a planner and hope for some action

Now I don't even go out for dinner

Just wine at my crib if I know that I'm smashin

I know that I'm nasty

But I'm not disgusted enough so I'm stuck

Fuck, when Imma run out of luck

When Imma learn how to trust

That I ain't gotta bust for connection for once

Yo, I'm tired as fuck

Yeah, I'm tired as fuck

I think I've run out of gas

I pray to God I don't crash as I swerve

Through the traffic of lovers in past I've observed

Going backwards occurs when you lacking the courage

To say what you mean and then back up your words

So you front and get nervous and mad insecure

Now you bitter and jaded and lash out in hurt

And use all them women for selfish concerns

But you'll never get better til one day you learn

It ain't workin

It ain't workin
