(Ugh) Grief
Yes & all my life, I only walked
I did not talk about it
They say to ask, you shall receive
(Receive) That’s what I had thought
They say to ask, you shall receive
They say to ask, you shall receive
(Oh, you don’t owe me, I’m so sorry)
They say to ask, you shall receive
They say don’t give up
In your grief, they say
“Don’t give up when you grieve !”
They say to give them what they want
& You’ll receive just what you needed
From it… & what about it ?
& For so long, they said
“You’ll find it, if you seek”
They say to ask, you shall receive
They say you’d give without-
They’d say don’t give up
When you grieve (Tell)
Tell me, am I wrong for anything I-
(Ye-Yes) O-no, we not- UH !
(What?!) Tell me, am I wrong
For anything I’ve looked around (uh-uh)
(Show me, know me)
When the year had turned
I’d looked around &
I had remembered to be
Without you so long
(Every New Year) Didn’t see no “others”
Every New Year’s Eve [that]
I had spent before that wasn’t
Even if I knew, even if I knew
That they fake it
I would laugh at it, if they did
(I would) This season, season
(Reciprocation in the rearview)
This season I-
I’d realized what I-
What I had (uh)
Face to face with the truth
That I couldn’t escape & for so long
I had laughed with them (escape, I-)
& For so long I’d laughed
& What the fuck do you expect
From me ?
For so long I couldn’t set up boundary
(Rather) & For so much fake love
That was around me & I could (uh)
So much fake love, that been around
Me, I’d never (uh)
(Even if I knew) & for so long
I’d laugh, if they did
Even if I knew they fake
It was a lot ! (mm-mm-nm-mn)
A lot ! (Oo-ooo, ee-eee)
She’s so, “Do believe me!”
(& for so long, I’d laugh if they did)
Oo-oo, Ee-eee (do believe me)
(Even if I knew they’d faked) Where
Did it go-oo-oo (oo-oo-oo)
Where did this love-
Where did- Where’d all the love go?
Where’d all the love go?
I had lied for so long (mm-mm)
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
(For so long, didn’t see no others)
Where’d the love go?
She fuck with me too much, yes
& All my life- yes & all my life
I lonely walked, I did not talk about it
Yes & all my life I only walked
I only, uhh yes
Yes & all my life, a lonely life
I didn’t set boundaries
Yes & all my life I didn’t (uh)
-Didn’t, in return from me
(In re-) In return from it, I’m tryna-
I’m tryna me mindful of the things
I’m trading off for console in universal
Deposits of experience & inspiration
(Tell me)
Sensory Deprivation, on a Sunday date
Doing “Abbott Elem-” (uhnnn…)
Doing “Abbott Elementary” for
Breakfast, it’s a beef patty &
Then, before the 3rd round

My entire state, to no avail (non grata)
Hmm- person, non grata
To this person, non grata (hmm)

Reciprocation in the rearview

Less, all the bull
