Not You
"Before and After"
(Verse 1)
This girl is so cute,
This is cool,
So smooth,
The type you wish you don't lose,
And ignorant just a bit,
She thinks life is cake,
Never been wrapped up,
And had to fight a snake,
She don't see dark in the night sky,
Only stars,
She sees the bright side,(Yea yea)
And no one ever demeaned her so she keep that demeanor,
A dreamer, grew up on the good grass that was greener,
She's understanding,
Grantin me time to vanish,
She don't panic,
Leave me alone if I feel manic,
Never ask for a better me,
She just want to bet on me,
Yea I hear her,
Gotta ask myself in the mirror,
Why don't I love her,
(Hook)
Yea she got that pretty face,
But she's not you,
Yea she calls me everyday,
But she's not you,
I tried to put her in your place,
But she's not you,
She's not you,
She's not you,
Yea she got that pretty face,
But she's not you,
Yea she calls me everyday,
But she's not you,
I tried to put her in your place,
But she's not you,
I know she's not you,
I hate she's not you,
(Verse 2)
Convince myself I don't need you,
It's not true,
See I be havin ups and downs like the stock do,
A lot lately,
I heard he duplicate me,
Except when he do it, it's better, he makes you hate me,
Still I wonder if under that smile,
Do you ever lay awhile and just think of our trial,(Nah nah)
Imagine things were different,
Is that something you vision,
Itchin to be in your kitchen kissin with no permission,
I'm think of you,
Drinking to you,
Singing to you,
On my mind while I grind it's like I'm blinking to you,
Older habits are kept,
Over dramatic I bet,
She got the rarest piece I'm workin hard to capture the set,
She got the part of me that's missin,
I guess it's just a lesson,
I hate professor life and his attendance,
I just wanna sleep in,
Feel like I'm greivin,
Drink everyday no waitin for the weekend,
I'm gone,
(Hook)
(Verse 3)
Lookin back at it,
I see the mistakes we shared,
The stakes we aired,
We're too much,
Tryna get my groove on I gotta move on,
Your the one I didn't wanna lose on,
It's alright though,
I might show pain,
Lesson gained,
Silver linings,
I get hurt more when I put the time in,
I'm findin,
Some feelings your better off hiding,
Speaking your feelings seeking her feelings,
It's too much,
(Hook)
