Wish Things Were Different

Man, I wish that things was different When I expressed to you my concerns, why didn't you listen?
When you play with fire, get burned, this life is sinning
But it's all good because I see your true intention
It was written in your actions Everything sound good when it's written in the captions
Then you dive a little deeper, realize it ain't matching
Trying to keep the spark burning with some soaked matches
Maybe I could do more
I need a little practice
Supposed to be my dawg, tell me why we not rocking
I swear appreciation never as loud as the gossip
All the sacrifices
All the nights crying
Trying to feel something
But the feeling's dying
Nowadays feel like I'm the only one trying
Man, I wish that shit was different
Man I wish that shit was different
Man I wish that shit was different
It was obvious we splitting up on way too different paths
I was trying to brace myself cause I seen the crash
Coming from a mile away, wish you had some time to stay
Guess it's truth in when they say that nothing ever lasts
We was supposed to be the exception Once upon a time, the aura that you gave was like heaven
Funny nowadays, more than ever, I need a reverend
Got me pouring shots in my coffee, tipsy at breakfast
Down the wrong path
Almost lost myself trying to keep what we had
Gotta breathe slow cause this life moving fast
Keep my guard up, heartbreak throwing jabs
You said you done with me, so why the hell you keeping tabs
Guess it's true in when they say that nothing ever lasts
I wish that shit was different, yeah I wish that shit was different

Cause I've been falling down for a long time
I Thought you'd be around for the long grind
You told me that your heart, it was all mine
Then I found out it was all lies
I wish that shit was different
I wish that shit was different
You know just what I'm missing
You know just what I'm missing
Cause I've been falling down for a long time
I thought you'd be around for the long grind
You told me that your heart, it was all mine
Then I found out it was all lies
I wish that shit was different
I wish that shit was different
You know just what I'm missing
You know just what I'm missing
Yeah, yeah
