(But I never really knew me)
(Turns out to be the one that you knew)
(But I never really knew me)
(But I never really knew me)
(But I never really knew me)
(Turns out to be the one that you knew)
(But I never really knew me)
Conversations with my ex
Made a whole lot of shit clearer
I wasn't ready for a real one
Back then, now it's different
And now that you've been M.I.A.
Fucked around and met a new me
Turns out to be the one that you knew
But I never really knew me
Blame it on me
I know that I could never be the gun
Cause you, got all, the ammunition
Don't wait on me
I know you been losing patience
By the way that I communicate
I know it
I know it
When you cry a river
I'll just swim up in it
And you know
I know it
Your heart was like a feather
And I was heavy handed and
I know it
I know it
I know it
Oooh
Conversations with my ex
Shit got me feeling convicted
Shit got my feelings conflicted
All you wanted was consistency
I made you end the commitment
Baby show me how to fix it
You were with me in the trenches
Never thought that I would miss it.
Blame it on me
I know that I could never be the gun
Cause you, got all, the ammunition
Don't wait on me
I know you been losing patience
By the way that I communicate
I know it
I know it
When you cry a river
I'll just swim up in it
And you know
I know it
Your heart was like a feather
And I was heavy handed and
I know it
I know it
When you cry a river
I'll just swim up in it
And you know
I know it
Your heart was like a feather
And I was heavy handed and
I know it
Heavy handed ain't no way around it
But I tried to save us from drowning
Knowing damn well that the dead weight
Wasn't a hill it's a mountain
And that was way back
And we sitting here like we both don't know
We been thinking about lately
And look at us now
Ain't been together
But had you around
Cause I'm ready for
Make it even better
Now that we're grown
Ain't no way I can fake it
And I ain't locked down
You can change that
You can count on me to hold it down
When I come around
I'ma love you down
I know it
I know it
When you cry a river
I'll just swim up in it
And you know
I know it
Your heart was like a feather
And I was heavy handed and
I know it
I know it
I know it
Oooh
Look at us now
(But I never really knew me)
Ain't been together
But had you around
(That you knew but I never really knew me)
Cause I'm ready for
(But I never really knew me)
Oooh
Know it
(But I never really knew me)
(But I never really knew me)
(Turns out to be the one that you knew)
(But I never really knew me)
