"Self" lyrics

Yeah she got a man she don't really give a fuck bout
Left him back home in a whole other state
Move to LA cause she wanna be famous
Got a 9-5 on the side, she a waitress
But it's getting tough, hard to find balance
Between making money and living out a passion
Wanna be a actress, wanna be a star
Live up in The Hills with a real nice car
So she quits that job
Finds an old man to pay for her shoes and her fake spray tans
Now she got time to focus on herself
All she gotta do is fuck the guy once a month
I know a lot of girls just like this
One of 'em happens to be my ex
Fucked a couple rappers before we met
But that was in the past so I can't be upset
Still I had to let it go cause it fucked with my head
Made me hate people that I never even met
Tryna change her is my only regret so I wish her the best
But I'm onto the next yeah
It was fun while it lasted but I gotta leave you in the past tense
Should've known from the jump that's what happened
That's what I get for tryna be captain
Wow

So why you think I stick to myself these days
Did my best to help but you don't wanna be saved
Maybe one day you'll see that I was right all along
But by then I'll be gone yeah
So why you think I stick to myself these days
Did my best to help but you don't wanna be saved
Maybe one day you'll see that I was right all along
But by then I'll be gone yeah

Let me tell you about another girl from back in the day
Best pussy that I ever had yeah
Haven't seen the girl in years
But I peeped her Instagram and she still hella bad
Wonder if she still think about me
Still got all of my sweaters, still got all of my letters
Damn I should've known better
Every day we kicked it, caught a vibe with her
Got drunk, smoked kush, got high with her
Through the thick and the thin, I would ride with her
Swear to God I really fucking thought I'd die with her
Fairy tale shit, felt like fiction
Drunk off love, didn't even sip shit yeah
She was everything I was missing
Till I found out that she had an addiction
Damn she smoked that ice
Didn't tell me till a couple months in it yikes
Made me think twice but I stuck by her side
I was really down for life so I stayed with her
Helped her get clean, shit was hella rough
But we worked as a team
And just when I thought that it might work out
She found someone else while I was out of town damn
Wow

So why you think I stick to myself these days
Did my best to help but you don't wanna be saved
Maybe one day you'll see that I was right all along
But by then I'll be gone yeah
So why you think I stick to myself these days
Did my best to help but you don't wanna be saved
Maybe one day you'll see that I was right all along
But by then I'll be gone yeah
