The Brightness

Smokin rose petals cause she love me not
And I dont like to mix because it fuck me up
Wouldn't say that I'm religious, but I'm praying to God
Devil on my shoulder gettin loud as fuck
Felt my heart break in a million ways
When she told me we'd never be a thing
I wanna move on, but she stuck in my brain
Feelin like her face left a permanent stain

And I was hypnotized tryna see alright
Thought I knew it all then I seen a lot more
And I was doing fine for a period of time
Now I'm on the fence tryna make the climb
Turn my shine on, shine on
Wit my shine on, shine on
Turn my shine on, shine on
Wit my shine on, shine on

Imma pro drama dodger I've been doing it forever
Navigating heat like I'm Wade in a sweater
Know they come and go, but I been caught up in the pressure
Tryna play it cool, but overthinkin every sentence
Every word every syllable, controllin every variable
I gotta a slight obsession with the feelings that she make me feel
I remember
what she wore the day I met her
Red sundress in the light took a walk down the
Boardwalk, laughin by the store front
Made out by the shore line
That was just a short stop
Walkin past the beach house
Picturing our whole life
We gonn get a crib, have some kids and see the world right
Now we all tense, and we don't know what's next
We can't be together and we can't stay friends
Marking up my soul, feel it my chest
We was on go now it feel like we at ends

And I was hypnotized tryna see alright
Thought I knew it all then I seen a lot more
And I was doing fine for a period of time
Now I'm on the fence tryna make the climb
Turn my shine on, shine on
Wit my shine on, shine on
Turn my shine on, shine on
Wit my shine on, shine on

Couldn't be a heartbreaker
I know I do it different
The way my parents beefin when we grew up
Was a mission
But there's a lot about me that I didn't know about
And every habit that I hated slowly comin out
Navigating shit on my own these days
Cause it feel like ain't nobody know the road these days
And even in a crowd feel alone these days
I'm tryna hold it down as I figure out ways of communicating better
I'm feeling disconnected
I get that you don't get me I'm not sure I get me either
But something in me saying maybe I should keep going
Tryna be me for real, I'm still working on it

And I was hypnotized tryna see alright
Thought I knew it all then I seen a lot more
And I was doing fine for a period of time
Now I'm on the fence tryna make the climb
Turn my shine on, shine on
Wit my shine on, shine on
Turn my shine on, shine on
Wit my shine on, shine on
