Verse 1
I think I've figured out how you can change
You probably know exactly what a n***a 'bout to say, I can't run around
I was watching, babe. You would be amazed
I knew what you were doing, I was waiting for the shame
Girl, I'm still seeing
That through the make-up, you've hiding all the pain
Girl, I still feel it
And if I could, then I would take it all away
And I believe that
One day
You're goin' take your demons and then look 'em in the face, tell 'em, "I'm still breathing."
I'm still breathing
Hook (×2)
Maybe, I would give you all the parts that they took
Babe, I would borrow you my eyes if I could
Maybe you would see that you're a diamond in the rough
One day you're goin' cry as you smile back and look back at all the days
[I'm still breathing]
You're goin' get up everyday 'cause you're brave and not look away
[I'm still breathing] (x2)
Verse 2
You always feel alone but you've got friends
Yeah, you got a fam at home, so you're not stressed
Well
You're broken-hearted but you got cash
Popping pills so your days are numbered like your mom's Benz, Ah, damn
Teen love, but we're both grown up
And lately you give a n***a the cold shoulder
You should never text me when you're not sober
I'm too busy grinding to talk while you're all zoned out
Last n***a was a dick, so he got fired
Your last n***a bangin' chicks, I knew all 5
Last n***a hit and quit, yeah they all lie
Although your last n***a had a whip, he had no drive
Oh, God
Tell me that you're there for me
Although I don't really need the therapy
No, I never really got a chance to plead
You're used to n***as and so you wouldn't dare believe
Anything that I've gotta say
Like I'm tryna give you a ring, get you gifts when it's Christmas and Mothers' Day
And other women who kissed me can miss me, they're history I've gotta pay
But you never listen and so I'mma save this sh** for another day
Yeah
You come into the city, never pay a visit
But even hoes tell lies to their straight n***as
To see your fake squad, man, I hate them n***as
You live the hotel life, yeah, you stay tripping
Yeah, you stay tripping
Why are you trippin'?
Didn't I tell you I was different?
And when you play this song, you're goin' tell yourself it's his fault again
And maybe hit me with the screengrab and that's when you involve your friends
You've gotta put the cigarette down, babe it spoils your breath
Girl, you're so reckless
Cutting so you bleed your regret
Hook
Maybe, I would give you all the parts that they took
Babe, I would borrow you my eyes, if I could
Maybe you would see that you're a diamond in the rough
One day you goin' cry as you smile back and look back at all the days
You goin' get up everyday 'cause you're brave and not look away
I'm still, yeah I'm still
