Lyrics

Why ya wanna do me like that?
You’re getting dark on this chat
A Monkey that’s on your back
Our vibes are on a downhill splat
White noise flooding this tone
Nerves cutting close to the bone
It’s never too late to come home
Thinking ’bout smashing my phone
I know this ain’t the best of times
But can you see the love that shines?
Sour grapes will make this wine
Remember that we’re in our prime
But why ya gonna do me like that?
Some words you know you can’t take back
Wishing that I had more slack
On the tightropes spitting these tacks
It’s okay
Let’s forgive
But don’t forget I got your back
And It’s alright
To let go
To hug it out
We’ll free the load
Why ya gonna do me like that?
Some words you can’t take back
Wishing that I had more slack
On tightropes of spitting tacks
Lean in a hill that’s steep
Tryna stay on my feet
Negative bugs in my sleep
Drinking up the tears I weep
So why ya wanna do me like that?
You’re getting dark on this chat
A monkey that’s on your back
Our vibes on a downhill splat
White Noise flooding this tone
Nerves cutting close to the bone
It’s never too late to come home
Thinking ’bout smashing this phone
It’s okay
Let’s forgive
But don’t forget I got your back
And It’s alright
To let go
To hug it out
We’ll free the load
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some more
