Lyrics

You doin' what you doin'
But it ain't for validation or credit
Right
Ah girl you know they call it makeup
cause it make up
What you lack in aesthetics
Right
Ah girl I'm not one to judge
But please understand I care
You on a beach out of town in a thong
And your man ain't there
Look I can see if you saying it made you swim better
But if we honest you knowing its other men that a
Stare and other women half naked
So you can blend better
In a competition for dopamine
But you still rather
Lie
Now take that in for a second
While I'm talkin' to him
You went and got a fresh cut and put cologne on
To go to the gym
Look I can see if you saying it made you train better
Or that it's gon' help you deal with the pain better
Ayy look I guess them grey joggers just fit your frame better
You shoot for attention and this is your way to aim at her
How much longer we gon' crash out
How much longer you gon' post thirst traps
With your ass out
This is no emotional feeling
It's more what I label motive concealing
When women hit the net and be posting pictures revealing
Then caption it by saying
They on a spiritual healing
Even worse when I'm witnessing RIPs on the internet
I get shooken up
Or happy heavenly birthday
As if the person no longer here know we put it up
Do we expect a response from the dead
Or someone living to lift us up
I'm guessing when we heartbroken and low on love
Then a comment section will fill us up
So we just ciphering this
As we all seek a like to assist
Us living life in the bliss
Self love somewhere lost in the mist
Cause if we had it none of this would exist
So how much longer we gon' crash out
How much longer you gon' post thirst traps
With your ass out
How much longer we gon lose focus
How much longer we gon seek validation
From people who don't even know us
So how much longer we gon' crash out
How much longer you gon' post thirst traps
With your ass out
How much longer we gon lose focus
How much longer we gon seek validation
From people who don't even know us
