"Fair" lyrics

"Fair"

Two-hundred days and counting I know
You're my favorite still
When I say I won't tell myself I don't but I always will
Feel the way I feel
You have time to heal, I got time to kill

Play in my mind like I rehearsed it
I know I should re-purpose
Ain't no faking hurt like this nah
You carry her and all I carry are burdens
Time for me ain't working
I know heartbreak ain't perfect but

Is it fair that you moved on
'Cause I swear that I haven't
Is it right that you've grown
And I'm still stuck in habits
'Cause I'm finding it strange
That you're better than average
Hearts didn't break down the middle
Tell me how did that happen

Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Yeah
Ooh, ooh
Ooh

Maybe
If we could trade places
So you'd feel betrayed and
And I can feel shameless
I carry all of the weight
And you get all of the gains
I can't take all the ways that she may touch you

'Cause it plays in my mind like I rehearsed it
I know I should re-purpose
Ain't no faking hurt like this nah
You carry her and all I carry are burdens
Time for me ain't working
I know heartbreak ain't perfect but

Is it fair that you moved on
'Cause I swear that I haven't
Is it right that you've grown
And I'm still stuck in habits
'Cause I'm finding it strange
That you're better than average
Hearts didn't break down the middle
Tell me how did that happen

Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Yeah
Ooh, ooh
Ooh

Normani told about "Fair" on TikTok on the 4th of March, 2022, "This song is one that captures me in a super vulnerable moment. Literally went through every possible emotion one could feel when experiencing heartbreak. Love is scary as hell especially when it seems like the other person has effortlessly moved on and you just can't seem to, no matter how hard you try. My heart was also going through it like many of yours have."
"Sharing this record makes me uncomfortable because you have never really seen me in this light," wrote Normani about this track on Instagram on the 14th of March, 2022. "Definitely aware that you might feel like you don't know much about me but that's only because it's what makes me feel protected. I am really forcing myself to let go here. This is huge for me and hopefully this piece of art resonates. Love is beautiful yet so so terrifying."
This song was performed by Normani during her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on the 18th of March, 2022.
