Why do you say you want me But then act like you don't If you don't love me like you say you do Please speak up cuz we grown Cuz the energy I feel from you Its completely different Like standing in a room with the ceiling missing Like being in a house


Why do you say you want me But then act like you don't If you don't love me like you say you do Please speak up cuz we grown Cuz the energy I feel from you Its completely different Like standing in a room with the ceiling missing Like being in a house with no roof You say you care but you fail to give me the proof Now here I am texting and calling you Texting and calling you But you don't answer I tell you how I feel but it doesn't matter Why do I feel I'm talking to a brick wall The more you reveal each new color to me I do the opposite of fall Slowly falling out of love got me standing tall Cuz even tho yeah I'm with you Right now I feel like I'm not with you at all Hope that makes sense Cuz this feeling you bringing me Is just not it Like a drug I'm looking for a fix The fix you gave me when you were interested But now that you got me You ignore my message I don't even run for the bus So why am I running after you I hate seeming so pressed I swear the more I have this feeling The more I see you getting left Cuz this just don't sit right with me I need to know that it's me and only me for a guarantee And right now it's getting hot and you acting like you wanna be free from me When the temprapture turns up the degrees Niggas start changing I see Ima just sit back smoke my trees And try to comprehend what's up wit you and me Don't wanna feel like I'm the only one fighting For once in my life I want someone who will fight for me But you don't even care to understand or see Where the feelings stem from My mind is like a loaded gun The trigger is my insecurity I shoot when I don't fucking hear from you But I'm the one who's tripping?! I could be asking you for diamond rings And keep you at the mall spending But all I'm asking is for ya attention But you still don't get it I know at times I can be clingy I know sometimes I get territorial About what's mine Cuz in my eyes You fine as wine And I don't ever want another to think she winning my prize At times I keep my feelings inside Cuz I know u won't attempt to try and understand I just don't wanna lose you But I'm fighting alone for you to stay being my man I'm in a boxing ring by myself Fighting for us And you have the fucking nerve To have a mind full of lust I don't know if my heart is in the right place Or am I in pure disgust It's like I wanna give u my trust But then here you go doing shit to fuck it all up
