[Verse 1]

Yeah, always standin' in these places, I just can't know

Know I want you here, but I don't know how to tell you

All the shit they tried to tell him, they can't tell me, yeah

Wonder how I'm always runnin', runnin' round this place

Something wrong with me, I feel it in my goddamn face

She don't never get to love me for me, it's okay

Still maneuver in my heart, it's still my purest place (One, two, three, let's go)

Something different in my mind, I feel it every day

Nothin' ever, ever, ever been the goddamn same

I'm chasin' shit, she think I'm crazy, got me in my brain

I couldn't tell you what I think, I must be—uh-uh, uh

Wait (Um), tryna find somewhere inside my brain that feels safe

I, uh, never get all the things I know I deserve in this life

It's alright, uh, can you just let me be here for this moment?

I'm tired of findin' pieces of me just to complain about

I'm tryna make sure I just live this life like I should and not how I could


[Chorus]

It's something 'bout her, I can see it in her goddamn face

My mind is somewhere separate, lift them, they in outer space

I couldn't tell you how it feels to be this every day

Shallow waters got me sittin', cryin' by the rain


[Verse 2]

Uh, uh, just let my mind breathe

Though I'm tellin' you, I just need to fuckin' find peace

Every instance that I need is right inside me

Couldn't change where I go, know I'ma die me (Uh)

I'm just livin' life for where it's at

High as hell, I roll another, run it back

When I go, who gon' have my back?

If I could have it all, tell me why I wouldn't take that

(Usually it's harder for me, for me)

Heart so cold, how it get like that? (Usually it's harder for me, for me)

Still I know, Lila fuckin' left (Usually it's harder for me, for me)

Mama, I know, I'm gon' get that (Usually it's harder for me, for me)

(Usually it's harder for me, for me)


[Chorus]

It's something 'bout her, I can see it in her goddamn face (Usually it's harder for me, for me)

My mind is somewhere separate, lift them, they in outer space (Usually it's harder for me, for me)

I couldn't tell you how it feels to be this every day (Usually it's harder for me, for me)

Uh, shallow waters got me sittin', cryin' by the rain

I don't wanna have to end this feeling, all that pain

Promise, baby, if you love me, I could really change
