Music: Tim Friedrich/Louis Leibfried/Ricardo Valentine/Malik Sanders
What goes around, comes around, applies to me too
I know I hurt you, baby, but I lied to me too
See, I could never switch, hope you ride for me too
All the years I thugged it out, until I finally meet you
Taking off my cool is such a process, why is that?
Cutting through my armor tryna dissect, you the only one for me
Even though I try to run from it I'm
Out of breath now
You upset now
Practice makes perfect, need my restitution
You see the leap from boys to men, baby, this just my evolution
In a rush, broken trust, gotta handle that
It's just me alone in this black Cadillac
Know we both got options
Still I'm locked in
Still I'm locked in
Running after love till I'm exhausted
The ones worth everything
Don't come around often
If you want me on, then I'm so off them
All this procrastination, no, I'm not like myself
Hurts to say I blacked out at a time I needed help
Resentment, self-inflicted from the things I never said
The story grew some legs, then it really got ahead
An open ear could make a stranger feel like she's somebody to me
Why I did it wouldn't make no sense to nobody but me
So I take a beat, formulate how I feel
Words too, been sick, baby
I'm so sick got bird flu
I'm praying on it like my church suit
I'm feeling cleansed from my sins
In the end, know I deserve you
In a rush, broken trust gotta handle that
It's just me alone in this black Cadillac
Think I finally got the hang of it
If I just
You know
Yeah, yeah
Know we both got options
Still I'm locked in
Still I'm locked in
Running after love till I'm exhausted
The ones worth everything
Don't come around often
If you want me on, then I'm so off them
No, I won't complain
Even under pressure
It's time to spread my wings
I think I finally understand the lesson
Down to fan the flame
First time felt stuck, grew to feeling better
It makes me wanna sing
Second time around, I wrote a letter
You're all I'll ever need
Third time around I thought I had it figured but I knew
My heart is on my sleeve
It was still some resistance I've been fighting through the truth
They're nothing to me
Yeah-yeah
Never gonna leave ya, baby
