Self-Aware

Woah, yeah, yeah

Won't treat it more nor any less
Won't think no more, yeah
I said a lot, you said to say less
It's always been about yourself

I kept trying to right all my wrongs
I kept on writing it all in my songs
I didn't know why we don't get along
Been too long, not too long

So what you got, when you've got nothing else?
When there's nobody you can use, no games
What's going to happen when you're by yourself?
And you can't shift the blame, can't just lie again

So what you got, when you've got nothing else?
How you gon' handle all the things you felt?
What's going to happen when you're by yourself?
I don't know what you gain, you know it's all the same
Yeah

No, I should've seen it coming, should've known
You took what you didn't need, and more
I chose not to see the things you clearly showed
I can't tell myself you believe you got no wrongs
So much for the things you said, it's all talk
So much for the things we made, it's all gone
I tried putting it to rest, it's too hard
Still, I wish you the best, so what you want?

So what you got, when you've got nothing else?
When there's nobody you can use, no games
What's going to happen when you're by yourself?
And you cant shift the blame, cant just lie again

And if I just did what you do
I'd run from my problems, call it self-care
If I was as petty as you
I'd tell everyone how you lack self-awareness
In all of the things that you do
I could be an ass, and talk to everyone else and I'd let them assume
Tell everyone else but you

I could find new friends to make
Hit up the ones that don't know I'm fake
Maybe the ones that forgot my mistakes
I could use them to escape

I could call the ones I've used
And share one-sided views
I could share a sad story
Then I'll make them choose

I'd say "We been friends for long"
"Same old story, they hurt me"
"I ain't got nobody now"
"Do it for me, you know me"
"I've never been so lost"
"It's not the same no more"

So what you got, when you've got nothing else?
When there's nobody you can use, no games
What's going to happen when you're by yourself?
And you can't shift the blame, can't just lie again

So what you got, when you've got nothing else?
How you gon' handle all the things you felt?
What's going to happen when you're by yourself?
I don't know what you gain, you know it's all the same

I'm fine with placing the blame on me
I've thought about it way too long to find another way
I know this just had to be, you ain't going to change
Whatever makes you happy, I'm fine to take the weight

And I want you to know that you're always in my prayers
I hope you learn to grow, learn to always do it fair
I just have to say, I know
Deep down, I'm just hurt
I hope that you eat, just nowhere near my table

Action speaks louder than words do
This ain't something that I'd do to you
'Cause action speaks louder than words do
And this ain't something that I'd do to you
