[Verse 1]

Back then kinda feel like I lost out

Been waiting on a dream come true

Had a vision in my mind now it's crossed out

I would talk about it 'til my face blue

But the picture that I painted was messed up

Thought that I was set now I gotta get dressed up

And I been thinking that i wasn't having the best luck

But then I 'fessed up

Too busy thinking 'bout the bills that money money

The type of woman I would kill for wasn't coming

So I started putting truth in my music

I was on a serious note but now it's funny

The numbers in my phone, I keep em on the D L

Staying up late now I struggle to sleep well

Tried to make people think I've been in a zone

Started to convince myself I'm not alone

I didn't know how to cope

That was a hard pill to swallow

I was crazy to think it'd always be sunny though

Scared of heights but I put me on a tight rope

It's a pity if they laugh at me

It's a pity that they don't see a catastrophe

They're just being naive

I know what's expected of me but perfection is outta my reach

[Chorus]

Yeah I know I made decisions

That could create some distance between you and me

I got sick of all the waiting

I swear I couldn't take it now it's a real pity

Yeah I know I made decisions

That could create some distance between you and me

So much guilt that I've been facing

From mistakes I've been making

Now it's a real pity

[Verse 2]

I've been told that I'm confident

But what they don't know is

That to me it's pretty obvious

I never really know where I'm going

Thinking to myself what to do now?

Smile on my face but I'm freaked out

Every time I lay down at night

Can't sleep try to count sheep

Now I'm sitting here 'cuz I lost count

Thought I had it mapped out, I guess that I didn't

I solemnly swear, my footsteps were hidden

I knew it'd be different if I would give in and just listen

I was so sick of commitment

Its something I could have predicted

I was just told it's forbidden

But then when I wanted to hit it

I took a swing just to miss it

Again and again regret it

There goes the mission

Couldn't withstand the resistance

And I was determined to finish

I wanted a fix, thought it would help but it didn't

I knew it, my mind wouldn't listen

Now I look back at mistakes that were made from a distance

Although I know I am forgiven it doesn't add up

Should've used longer division

I'm placing myself in remission, now it's a pity

[Chorus]

Yeah I know I made decisions

That could create some distance between you and me

I got sick of all the waiting

I swear I couldn't take it now it's a real pity

Yeah I know I made decisions

That could create some distance between you and me

So much guilt that I've been facing

From mistakes I've been making

Now it's a real pity

I hope people sing along to this song

Even if I help one person to stay strong

That's what I been put here to do til I'm gone

For so long I just felt like the pressure was on

It's a pity if they laugh at me

It's a pity they don't even know the half of it

They're just being naive

I know what's expected of me but

Perfection is outta my reach (dang)

[Chorus]

Yeah I know I made decisions

That could create some distance between you and me

(You and me, you and me)

I got sick of all the waiting

I swear I couldn't take it now it's a real pity

(It's such a pity)

Yeah I know I made decisions

That could create some distance between you and me

(You and me, you and me)

So much guilt that I've been facing

From mistakes I've been making

Now it's a real pity

(It's a real pity)
