Money Over Memories

“Maybe people don’t leave because they stopped loving you…

maybe life just changes people.”

HAAHAHAHAAAAAA

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

People leave, hearts break, guess that’s life,

No control over somebody else’s mind,

You never know intentions hidden deep inside,

One day y’all forever, next day goodbye.

Love ain’t magic, love a choice you make,

So if she chose different, what’s left to say?

Now I’m barely sleepin’, stomach full of pain,

Tryna act normal while I’m goin’ insane.

Cold nights, no texts, starin’ at my phone,

Realized in this world you survive alone,

Everybody switch when the feelings get hard,

So I put my trust inside money not hearts.

Fuck love, I been workin’ on myself now,

Long shifts, dead eyes, but I still stand proud,

Maybe it’s better that it happened right now,

Better sooner than later when forever burns out.

At the end it’s me and money, fuck everything else,

People swear they love you then they choose someone else,

Butterflies and heartbreak messin’ with my health,

Hardly eatin’, hardly sleepin’, fightin’ with myself.

Was it real love?

Or was I gettin’ used?

Love is a choice…

Guess she just chose different too.

Maybe something happened, maybe life moved fast,

Maybe you still love me but we couldn’t make it last,

Distance killin’ feelings, circumstances changed,

Still doesn’t stop the memories stuck inside my brain.

I ain’t even mad now, mostly just confused,

How you say forever then disappear so smooth?

Now I see the truth, people come and go,

Even soul ties fade when the feelings get cold.

So I hit the gym harder, stack my cash taller,

Built myself back up from the pain gettin’ darker,

Your loss honestly, I know my worth now,

I was drownin’ in your love, now I’m finally breakin’ out.

And maybe love was there for a moment in time,

Maybe people change and leave the rest behind,

Doesn’t mean I’m broken, doesn’t mean I died,

Just means I survived another goodbye.

So if you leave… leave now.

Don’t promise forever if you can’t hold it down.

I’ll heal eventually, even if it takes time,

Cause money stay loyal when hearts change sides.

And honestly?

Maybe losing you saved my life.
