Verse 1
You keep on talkin' 'bout your heart like it's a dangerous game
Walkin' 'round with your chest out, expectin' me to just tame
Actin' like you the prize, like I should be so honored
But I'm the one who put the work in while you kept me cornered
I let you take the wheel, yeah, I was seein' the vision
Through the good and the bad, I was respectin' the mission
I took the grief, took the drama with your fully grown kids
But I'm still standin' here auditionin' for whatever this is!
I took a step back, observed it, you ain't makin' no room
Realized I'd never be her, sweepin' your mess with a broom.
Chorus
It’s always "I" and "me" until you don't know what to do
Then suddenly it's "we" and "us" when things are fallin' through!
You say you got me long as I got you, but that’s a trap
I’m done performin' for your love, I'm pullin' off the map
You acted like the trophy, boy, but check the mismatch
Open your eyes, look at me—I’m the actual catch!
Verse 2
Now that the foundation shakin' and we startin' to fall
You panickin', you pleadin' with me just to answer your call
Sayin' "please don't ever leave," but you were playin' me cheap
Only on a rare occasion did you look at me deep
You had me fightin' for a spot that wasn't even secure
I brought the loyalty and fire, my intentions were pure
But you too busy with your ego, couldn't share the spotlight
I’m a boss in my own lane, I'm takin' off in the night
You thought you did me a favor just by choosin' my name
But messin' with my heart, honey? That's the dangerous game.
