Been about a year since I had a drink
Wishin' you was out here tryna make me sing
Now I know that you was really tryna help
We would fight but really I would fight myself
Keep checkin' my story for your name
Even though our story's on the last page
Read our texts like a million times
Searchin' for some hope in between the lines yeah
You crowned me queen
And loved me like Disney promised
You were all that I wanted
But trauma and toxicity
It lead me to self sabotage
A man and a land that was sovereign
Bleedin' out bleedin' out
But it's a war that I started
Ran off with all that I wanted
A war that I started
I'm so fuckin' sick and tired out here tryna think
Feel like Ray J singin' in the rain
Baby I don't want nobody-ody else
But it doesn't matter talkin' to myself
Outside right swipe tryna race
But I feel like Mary on the windowpane
Ever since we dated I been going dumb
And I still don't want nobody else around
See you crowned me queen
And loved me like Disney promised
All that I wanted
But trauma and toxicity
It lead me to self sabotaging
A man and a land that was sovereign
I'm bleedin' out I'm bleedin' out
But it's a war that I started
On a land that was sovereign
Mmm
