Frank Ocean
Truth (Virginia Beach Remix)
{Intro}
(But your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you, ooh)
You can't conceal me
The truth is so demanding
(Run off the stage, i'm free)
But you took me for granted
{Verse}
She knows i'm fucking you
He knows it's not what I should do
13 but don't get over you
3 year gap, my hearts collapsing
Heart pieces would be so few
Stop dimming me it's what your're missing
Can't hold back it's the worst of me
You can't conceal me
{Chorus}
I'm going to tell the truth, I know we ain't supposed to be doing this
But it's as much as I can do. Pull me closer to you
I'm Different, can't experience what I experience
The truth is so demanding
{Verse}
Come here baby, and feel it
Don't fuck me then abandon
Nah, lil bitch, can't let you finish
I'm rotting then repairin'
Thanks to my fears
I don't want love anymore
But you changed that and fixed shit
But there's a part of me that's still broken
I can't search and find because it's down deep
Just like when we fuck it's deep found
Can't find my heart and soul, think I lost it
Like you lost me. I'm at my tombstone
I'm just wondering when I can say finally
{Chorus}
(But your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you, ooh)
I'm going to tell the truth, I know we ain't supposed to be doing this
But it's as much as I can do. Pull me closer to you
I'm Different, can't experience what I experience
The truth is so demanding
{Verse}
I'm me and no one can disagree, I just want to be free
People are after me, stop fucking me, I need a plan B
Net worth won't even afford the other side of me
I had red hearts at first, I had to turn 'em black
(Can't remember a time when my answer was nope
I remember the times I had nowhere to go)
(Once they whack him, he's dead, it ain't no gettin' back
I was giving my all, not asking for it back)
Got a dumb n***a on the streets take out my thousands
Take the dumb n***a shoppin'
Can't stand to see a homeless n***a on the street
Don't curr, n***a pull over give a n***a a thousand
I'm from the trenches
But moved away, I'm the same way I left here with
Got evicted, mom wasn't even those sections. Lived on the streets
Till my n***a came free. Thank God for his parents, damn I love him more than me
{Chorus}
I'm going to tell the truth, I know we ain't supposed to be doing this
But it's as much as I can do. Pull me closer to you
I'm Different, can't experience what I experience
The truth is so demanding
(But your mother would be proud of you
I bet your mother would be proud of you, ooh)
{Outro}
(Damn I love you)
I saw you in the back of my show last night
Standin' underneath the exit sign
I know it wasn't really you, though
'Cause you were always in the front row
And I've been lookin' for love online
And maybe some of them are real good guys
They're never gonna be like you though
You set the bar above the moon, so
I don't wanna be twenty-somethin'
And still in my head about
Seventeen in my bedroom talkin'
You said that by now we'd
Paint the walls of our shared apartment
You're still everything I want and
I think we could work it out
So what are you doin' now?
