Pick Up

I can understand
How I can be at time I know
I can be real difficult
I ain't got no patience with myself
But hopefully for me you do
I ain't have to question nobody
It's just I don't trust in nobody
So I can understand
How you can demand
That respect, it's just the principle

So pick up the phone for me baby
Pick up the phone for me
So pick up the phone yeah baby yeah
Pick up the phone for me
I know sometimes I piss you off badly yeah
I know at times I need to take a back seat
But pick up the phone for me babe
Pick up the phone for me

I'm actively aware
That you dealing with my traumas
I'm working on these walls I built
To be a little softer
I know it isn't fair
To deal with where these past niggas failed
It's a hit or miss to deal with those things proper
I know I played my part
It ain't all you baby
Arguments get dangerous when I get faded
Sometimes I can't control my mouth
I wasn't tryna push you out
I know you tryna be patient

So pick up the phone for me baby
Pick up the phone for me
So pick up the phone yeah baby yeah
Pick up the phone for me
I know sometimes I piss you off badly yeah
I know at times I need to take a back seat
But pick up the phone for me babe
Pick up the phone for me

I can give affection
Why I don't, it ain't a factor
But did anyone ask you
Know I'm 'bout to act up
Attitude dramatic, gave unwarranted reactor
Damn let me back off
Yeah I'm a back off
Fuck it, I can't fight it
Watch me try and bring the past up
Why you laugh bruh
Get me tight with "why you mad, love..."
But I can't help to feel this way when you act tough
But I'm a back off

So just pick up the phone for me baby
Pick up the phone for me
So pick up the phone yeah baby yeah
Pick up the phone for me
I know sometimes I piss you off badly yeah
I know at times I need to take a back seat
But pick up the phone for me babe
Pick up the phone for me
