Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, growin' up
Yeah, know a lot but I don't know enough
What you doin' here?
Why you even showin' up?
Showin' off or tryna show me love?
Why you look confused like
You don't really know what's up?
Why you always tryna judge?
I know who you are, yeah
Why you tryna-tryna front?
I am not the man I was
[Verse 2]
Look, made me a promise
I just hope you keep it
I don't like to get involved with things I don't believe in
I don't like to hang with people I don't trust or speak with
If you tell me that you mean it
Then I hope you mean it
Yeah, feel like I don't deserve you
When I hurt your feelings
I'm vulnerable, you got the keys to open all my secrets
You've always been there when I'm low
To help pick up the pieces
I know I act like I don't need it, yeah, but lately I been thinking
[Chorus]
Lately I been thinking
Yeah, I have been thinking
Yeah, I have been thinking
[Verse 3]
Yeah, I wish that I was optimistic
I wish that I could trust my intuition
To most negative thinking
Makes you a pessimist but
To me negative thinking means I'm just realistic
That's how I feel, ain't that a twisted view?
Claim that I don't care what people think but is that really true?
Those the type of questions that I struggle with
That's the type of thing that keep me up at night
Wonderin' I wonder if the pressure I been under
Is too much on my shoulders?
Who gon' care when this fades
I turn grey and get older?
Yeah, that's the type of thing I don't wanna answer
But just because I don't wanna do it
Don't mean I don't have to
See, these are lessons that you learn in life
And we only get one of 'em
Hope I'm learning right
I know that everything comes with a price
Yeah, yeah everything comes with a price
Y'all got no clue what I have sacrificed
And lately I been thinking
[Chorus]
Lately I been thinking
Yeah, yeah I have been thinking
Yeah, I have been thinking
