"I Can't Get By" lyrics

"I Can't Get By"

Tell me what to be
Be honest, I changed and you don't see
I tried to speak my peace, baby, you're
Never gonna be
Be honest, say things that you don't mean
Touching me differently, baby, yeah

Drink, smoke, scrollin', scroll
Late nights 'cause I can't come home to the pain, oh
Let me know, can it change? Oh
Can you let me go?

I can't get by on the things that we used to
Just 'cause we used to
Just get by
I can't get by on the things that we used to
Just 'cause we used to
No, I can't get by

Yeah, we was real young
When I met you, yeah, you was a real one
Walking 'round like I'm the one that did somethin'
Yo, I pulled you out the hole and now we in one
Don't lie
Say the things you never really liked me for
Tell me what the fuck you wish I could be more
Yeah, those was good days
But girl, I'm sorry
I ain't got feelin' no more

Drink, smoke, scrollin', scroll
Late nights 'cause I can't come home to the pain, oh
Let me know, can it change? Oh
Can you let me go?

I can't get by on the things that we used to
Just 'cause we used to
Just get by
I can't get by on the things that we used to
Just 'cause we used to
No, I can't get by

No, I, no, I, I
No, I, I can't get by
No, I, no, I, I
No, I, I can't get by

Drink, smoke, scrollin', scroll (No, I, no, I, I)
Late nights 'cause I can't come home to the pain, oh (No, I, I can't get by)
Let me know, can it change? Oh (No, I, no, I, I)
Can you let me go? (No, I, I can't get by)

I can't get by on the things that we used to
Just 'cause we used to
Just get by
I can't get by on the things that we used to
Just 'cause we used to
No, I can't get by

Drink, smoke, scrollin', scroll (No, I, no, I, I)
No, I, I can't get by
Let go, let me know (No, I, no, I, I)
No, I, I can't get by
Drink, smoke, scrollin', scroll (No, I, no, I, I)
No, I, I can't get by
Let go, let me know (No, I, no, I, I)
No, I, I can't get by
