As much as my friends told me to leave you
I stayed, thinking I was different
Different enough to make you change
Of course I didn’t listen
I made excuses for you
Knowing that they didn’t make sense
Everyone saw what I was doing
I was bringing my self to an end
I compromised who I was
Just to make you feel whole
Thinking we were going to go the distance
When having hoes were your goals
Going through your phone is irrelevant
It’s written all over your face
You look so dull when you look at me
I know someone has taken my place
