Lyrics

Chorus
This isn’t what I wanted this is what I thought it be
Look at where we started can We get that back (x2)
If you’re gonna break my heart
I better off, I’m better off on my own
And if you’re gonna break my heart
I better off, I’m better off on my own (x2)
V1 ( 0:58-1:37)
I Treated her like a plant as I Sowed a seed/
Watered her with love & then removed the weeds/
I Started to fall in love that was true indeed/
Picked her up like a book As I learned to read
All her subtleties she become bubbly
Wasn’t enough for me living the life Luxury
I'm crushing be Just friends wasn’t enough for me
She was my other half/ But what stuck with me
Huh she was stuck in the past Never Lived in the moment
She would question my ass/ Dating her was a task
But more so a blast/ I loved her in hard times
I thought it would last/ But life seem to come and go
With her backtracking And I come to know
She would tell me what she wants and then never ever know I put her In God's hands as I let her go
Chorus
This isn’t what I wanted this is what I thought it be
Look at where we started can I get that back (x2)
But if you’re gonna break my heart I better off I’m better off on my own And if you’re gonna break my heart
I better off I’m better off on my own (x2)
V2 (2:17-2:55)
Huh I'm watching how the script flip you get invested then you dip quick Anxiety high then you drift Slip
Into the same cycle Lose your grip And Jump ship
You Change with the seasons Spring into Love hot summers Get ready for downfalls Subzero winters getting cold like yo I don’t know you at all (It Like) one minute you love me Next you need to breathe ask you what’s wrong questions bob and weave Suffocate every train of thought You ever convinced meaningful relationships In your life you seem to grieve But life seem to come and go with her backtracking And I come to know I put her In God hands as I let her go
Chorus
This isn’t what I wanted this is what I thought it be
Look at where we started can I get that back (x2)
But if you’re gonna break my heart
I better off I’m better off on my own
And if you’re gonna break my heart
I better off I’m better off on my own (x2)
Bridge
I don’t love half-heartedly that’ll never be me
Love is patient is kind and that’s what I'm gonna be
Your life your choices choose what you want to be
But I respect myself No half-stepping on me
Life seems to come and go When you’ve done backtracking you can let me know
I can tell you what I want you already know
I put you in the hands of God as I let you go
Chorus
This isn’t what I wanted this is what I thought it be
Look at where we started can I get that back (x2)
But if you’re gonna break my heart
I better off I’m better off on my own
And if you’re gonna break my heart
I better off I’m better off on my own (x2)
