Time Will Tell

Time will only tell
If you'll be on my side
I was under a spell
But I'ma be alright
You only call me when you want me
But you never even said you're sorry
I'm done thinking that you are the one, 'cause
All of these emotions got me coming undone

You're backstabbing, backstabbin'
I thought we put that shit behind us like a back cabin
I thought we put it out to sea, let it float away
But we have been here before, yeah, you know the way

So here I go again, my white snake
And what we had wasn't real, wasn't quite fake
It wasn't hate, it was nowhere near love
It wasn't comfort, it was everything we feared of

But what the fuck am I saying?
I'm talking in riddles
And when I said to pick a side, you would walk in the middle
We supposed to rule the world, guess royalty dies
I can see how but not where your loyalty lies

And of course you gave it up, coulda guessed that you're a quitter
Actin' like a baby, I ain't even find a sitter
Might be immature that I'm calling you names
Tryna be your rockstar, you're all about games
Damn

Time will only tell
If you'll be on my side
I was under a spell
But I'ma be alright
You only call me when you want me
But you never even said you're sorry
I'm done thinking that you are the one, 'cause
All of these emotions got me coming undone

You're backtalking, backtalkin'
Thought I put a nail in it and I buried you in that coffin
I thought last time really was the last time
'Cause really just to past time
Really tryna pass out my idle mind

Well, that's the Devil's playground
Every time I try to rise, you want me to stay down
I've been taking shots like I'm revvin' for the A-town
Fuck a boat, I'm tryna rock the nation like Jaystown

But I can't seem to drown you out
You make me feel shortchanged when they count me out
You don't have my best interests at heart
'Cause the rhymes like dimes, we was doomed from the start

So I wish you the best but never to see you later
'Cause all you really ever were to me was a hater
Karma likes to cook, yeah, I heard she likes to cater
Get served what you deserve, watch out for the waiter
Damn

Time will only tell
If you'll be on my side
I was under a spell
But I'ma be alright
You only call me when you want me
But you never even said you're sorry
I'm done thinking that you are the one, 'cause
All of these emotions got me coming undone

What do you want from me?
What do you, what do you want from me, huh?
Why can't you let me be?
Why can't you, why can't you let me be, huh?
What do you want from me?
What do you, what do you want from me, huh?
Why can't you let me be?
Why can't you, why can't you let me be, huh?

We all go through things that are not there
People do us wrong, we didn't get the promotion
Came down with an illness
You can't stop lying from happening to you
But you can choose how you respond
If you hold on to the hurt
You go around dwelling on the offence
Thinkin', "Why did they say that about me?"
"Why did I lose my loved one?"
"Why did that friend walk away?"
Then you're opening the door to bitterness
When you're bitter, it affects every area of your life
Bitterness poisons your attitude
To where you see things in a negative light
