[Verse 1: Grieves]
I'm- I'm- I-
I know I'm complicated
I know there's things you want to hear and I don't always say 'em
Often keep it on the hush
When I overflow the cup
I don't want to be a burden with my complications
Tough love, taking drugs on the cheap flight
Can't become the people we were without a rewrite
(He right!)
Gotta keep it steady just to see right
And now I'm taking pills just to seem right
Anyways
Maybe I'm just running in place
I don't understand why everyone's got something to say, yeah
(Shh!)
Man, expressions of love are never the same
I display 'em in a way that I work in keeping you safe, baby
Stop
Everybody's lost in the gleam
Holding what we mean to each other against the screen
Girl, I can't change much, but I can change
Seems like ain't nobody been working for a damn thing
That ain't us

[Chorus]
I've been feeling I should call you up
God, I wonder if it feels the same
I don't wanna be a stranger
Anymore, I don't blame you for feeling that
Ain't nobody gonna take your place
I've been out here trying to stand on business
I don't wanna act like I don't wanna be back home with you
(Uh, I got's to know!)
(Uh, I got's to know!)

[Verse 2: Mouse Powell]
I, I, I apologize
I often lie about the way I really feel inside
At troubled times, I tend to build a wall and raise 'em high
It's just a side effect of trying to save my state of mind
Grief is not a piece of life that you can choose to leave behind
Realize the open wound will probably never feel cauterized
Anything short is just a sport of finding peace of mind
That's why I feel disorganized from trying to sort out my lies
I rather tell you I'm good
Don't peep under the hood
That other shoe gon' drop
I'm looking out for the foot
I know the rain gon' fall
I need to cop a new rule
I'm pushing people away
I need to look to find a reason to stay
But still make believe I'm doing okay
Okay
I'm getting shook, I need to keep it away
But best believe, I'm still grieving today
I miss you
[Chorus]
I've been feeling I should call you up
God, I wonder if it feels the same
I don't wanna be a stranger
Anymore, I don't blame you for feeling that
Ain't nobody gonna take your place
I've been out here trying to stand on business
I don't wanna act like I don't wanna be back home with you

(Uh, I got's to know!)
(Uh, I got's to know!)

[Outro]
I don't want to act like this
I don't want to play no games
I just want to be back home, on the outside
I don't want to act like this
I don't want to play no games
I don't wanna act like I don't wanna be back home with you
