Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Oh habibi
Please believe me
I didn't mean to leave
My pride got all in the way
Oh habibi
Please believe me
I didn't mean to hurt you so
But my ego got a ego
[Verse 1]
I've been living in my masculine
'Cause I've been too scared to let anybody in
The reason that I fight your help
Is 'cause I don't wanna lose myself
I've been doing the impractical
Don't tell you how I feel so I stay in control
I can't risk my pride
So I hold it all inside
[Chorus]
I know that I'm wrong
I'm glad that you're right
'Cause I can't afford to not have you by my side
I know I've been scared
Too scared to just feel
But I swear to God on my life I want something real
Something real
Something I can feel
[Verse 2]
Got it bad for you, bad for you, badman
All my life I knew I needed that man
I've been a bad gyal all my life, it's obvious
But you poured your loving on me
Pour it like an audience
You ease my triggers, my trauma, pour peace on me
You always brought the only loving that God knows I need
Had to make me work for it
Beg for it
But now I know
[Chorus]
I know that I'm wrong
I'm glad that you're right
'Cause I can't afford to not have you by my side
I know I've been scared
Too scared to just feel
But I swear to God on my life I want something real
Something real
Something I can feel
[Outro]
Oh habibi
Please believe me
I didn't mean to leave
My pride got all in the way
Oh habibi
Please believe me
I didn't mean to hurt you so
But my ego got a ego
