Sorry I ever kept you waiting,
I hope you wait for me.
Guess you got tired of waiting,
Only I couldn’t see.
I never meant to keep you waiting—
I’m just sayin.
Never realized all this waiting would put such a weight on us.
You always called my bluff,
I was only tryna win your trust.
Tryna get closer to Mary, get that green, get that big bag,
Fill it up with big-ass dreams.
Cuz dreams cost money in this world,
And life’s been so hectic it’s got me in a whirl—
Getting tossed by the wind or drowned in the pool,
Getting so much love from one girl
Now I’m feeling like a big-ass fool.
I know I ain’t perfect,
Lord only knows.
But now you got a clue what kinda fool I am—
This fool that fell for you.
I see it now.
Just venting on this notepad,
Hoping we’d take that trip, hit the road and laugh,
Head all the way to Amsterdam.
(Laugh.)
Still tryna go to Greece, still tryna keep my peace,
Still tryna tell my piece of the story.
I’m sorry—didn’t mean to sound boring.
Shit—lemme reset for a minute, uh.
This king wears a broken crown, matching this broken smile,
Broken heart—yeah, it sits like a frown on my face.
Breaking my bones just to break even with you
Or be in first place.
I think to myself, is it a waste…
Or am I just wasting time, wasting effort, wasting rhymes,
Breaking the rules, schooling these fools—
I’d break ’em again and again
If it meant one second with you.
I mean that. I really do.
I try to spit fire, try to spit fact.
But this wasn’t meant to be—
Feels like the weight of the world sits heavy on my back.
This ain’t what it seems, yeah.
Like I’m stuck in a bad dream
And I’m the only one who can save me, yeah.
It’s me, myself, and I again,
And we don’t even get to be friends. (Shit.)
Hoping for one more shot at redemption,
But it feels like I’ve lost your attention.
Couldn’t see it then, can’t find the answers now—
Curtains closing in on me
For my final bow.
gShy
