monkey mind

Monkey mind
Misaligned
But it's fine
I got a barrel of these motherfuckers in my monkey mind
The type of chatter that can't be mistaken for the loving-kind
They wanted input then they said they didn't like my artsy wrath
He wanted fire then it turned out he just needed a cold bath
I wanted long days in the studio and jam sessions with you
And would've given any piece of me as a token of proof

Cause I wanted it
I wanted it, I wanted it
I wanted it, I wanted it

I didn't like the way they mixed my vocals or mastered their tracks
I didn't like taking steps forward just to be taken aback
They wanted Spotify hits but they were too scared to crash and burn
He needed shows to show that - haters just how little he had learned
I knew I felt a sense of imbalance but couldn't catch my step
I knew it wasn't love but that we sure as fuck wouldn't be friends
Cause something changed in him when we got into it that faithful night
A Jekyll Hyde vibe that I guess I went with cause of fight or flight
I gave my spirit and they said I was a mean do nothing bitch
That's where I drew the line
Monkey mind knows that's a load of shit
And so I did what I already should've done and took my space
They lemme think I was the problem till he came on my dumb face
Technically lol
These antics are semantics but the question on my brain is
If I came onto him why's he the only one who came

Monkey mind
And he told his friends I wanted it
Because truthfully I wanted it
Misaligned
I wanted Christmases and jam sessions
Conversations, an ear to bend
A man who cared, a man who stared with the eyes of a -
But it's fine

One day some questionably young girl in your program's gonna talk
(So go tell more boys I wanted it)
This time you're fine keep drinking Harvey wine
Next time they'll know you're fucked
(Go on paint me as a slutty bitch)
I'll try to keep a straight face
when your bony ass takes that big stand
So I don't distract the world from a glimpse at this pathetic man
My bad
A man has qualities these fuckboys failed to embody
I hope they're all proud of my men they could've but chose not to be

Monkey mind
(My muckety mind muckety mind muckety mind)
Misaligned
(Does he think I wanted that?)
I'm not fine
But it's fine
