I ain't gonna lie to you

I did love you

I just loved you wrong

And you ain't deserve the version of me you met

I loved you but I loved you wrong

Loved you in my mess, not where you belong

Loved you while I lied, while I moved far

Loved you from a distance but you want it now

You gave me real, I gave you damage

You showed me peace, I showed you habits

You was crazy, you was strong

You loved me right while I loved you

You was blowing up my phone while I was laid up on the line

Had my arm around somebody still replying, baby I'm tired

You was sitting in my hoodie, overthinking every thread

I was ghosting for some ego I ain't even really need

You was loyal on a Friday cooking plates after your shift

I was busy with the guys but that alibi was a myth

You was praying for my mind, I was playing with your trust

You was saving every dollar I was spending on my lust

You would ask me are you happy, I'd get mad and change the song

Cause the answer was with you but my actions screamed all wrong

I ain't cheat cause you was lacking, I was fighting with my dirt

You was everything I needed while I chose what made you hurt

You was trying to build a home, I was playing with a fire

You was giving me forever, I was acting like a liar

I loved you but I loved you wrong

Loved you in my mess, not where you belong

Loved you while I lied, while I moved far

Loved you from a distance but you want it now

You gave me real, I gave you damage

You showed me peace, I showed you habits

You wasn't crazy, you was strong

You loved me right while I loved you

You would cry and then apologize, like sorry I'm a lot

I'd say here you go again when I was the walk and fly

You was begging for a soft life, I was stuck on being cold

Still would call you when I'm empty, let you save my broken soul

You knew passwords, knew my traumas, knew my family, knew my fears

Still I gave the bare minimum and soaked up all your tears

You was scrolling through my follow, seeing signs you can't unsee

I was calling you insecure but that insecurity was me

I ain't cheap cause you ain't fine, you the finest in the room

I ain't cheap cause you ain't precious, you the diamond, I'm the wound

Truth is you were too mature for where my spirit really sat

You were ready for a husband, I was stuck on being trapped

This for every girl who stayed and tried to fix a broken man

Took him back a thousand times and still got left without a plan

You ain't dumb, you ain't weak, you just love with all your heart

Sometimes love ain't enough to heal a man that loves the dark

If he ever made you feel like you the reason that he stray

Hear it from the mouth of one that did the same and walked away

He could love you and still hurt you, that's the part that feels so strong

It ain't you that wasn't worthy, he just loved you, fuckin' wrong

I love, I love, I love, I love
