[Verse 1]

I tried to open up to others, but my heart is always too scared

Had my defense up like I was on the '85 Bears

Know my biggest weakness is I can't fight through the fear

It's like my wheels willing to move, but I ain't going nowhere

Guess I'm out of gas, tryna drive forward and just forget the past

Always clash, why when you talk to me wrong, I feel harassed?

Know you mad, making me feel the same as a selfish drag

Shit was sad, copped us a sack, ain't even hit the bag


[Chorus]

You could have it, gave you my heart, told you do not unwrap it

Had to grab it, couldn't refrain, you had to rip the plastic

Peep your habits, love to just take, and nеver give your magic

Know what happenеd, world has been selfish, you tryna find your balance

Tryna find a reason why my friend's have been concerned

I've been on my knees, pleadin', tryna listen to the word

We give away ourselves and hope we cash out in return

It's like putting money in the stocks just to watch it burn


[Verse 2]

Been withdrawn, saw that you texted, I just forgot to call

Fought the Fall, enter the Winter, and watch my life stall

Stand tall, life got to grippin' on me like piped on

Knife on, bring out emotions without the lights on

You ever search for something while you standing in the dark?

You feel around with your hands, but you ain't findin' what you thought

I been stuck inside my shell, my friends been tryna make me talk

See, I couldn't find the words, I know it's rippin' us apart


[Chorus]

You could have it, gave you my heart, told you do not unwrap it

Had to grab it, couldn't refrain, you had to rip the plastic

Peep your habits, love to just take, and never give your magic

Know what happened, world has been selfish, you tryna find your balance


[Verse 3]

Crazy how you try to keep emotions stuck inside

Just to save the ones around you, but they look at it as pride

Why would I wanna my pain inside of someone else's eyes?

Dealin' with they own shit, don't wanna compromise

Sip on creme wine, niggas is calling, I thought I pressed decline

Flaky Khan, niggas made plans, I just forgot to ride

In my mind, lookin' for reasons that I should keep tryin'

Hit the line, talkin' 'bout feelings I always try to hide


[Chorus]

You could have it, gave you my heart, told you do not unwrap it

Had to grab it, couldn't refrain, you had to rip the plastic

Peep your habits, love to just take, and never give your magic

Know what happened, world has been selfish, you tryna find your balance

Tryna find a reason why my friend's have been concerned

I've been on my knees, pleadin', tryna listen to the word

We give away ourselves and hope we cash out in return

It's like putting money in the stocks just to watch it burn


[Outro]

Yeah
