"Selfish Love" lyrics
(feat. Dream Mclean)
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart beat
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart breathe
Maybe I was spose to marry ya
But when it comes to smart cells never been a carrier
When it comes to ourselves
Me I been the barrier
I knew u needed more
And I was never there enough
Yeah, fair enough
In that Instagram square it looks like they're in love
Them squares there ain't got the whole surface area
U don't see the bigger pic
Coulda had a ball
Then we fumbled it
Fu-
Fiddlesticks
Shit
Too many friends with benefits
Wanna have my cake and eat it too for the hell of it
And u won't get no chips from me, nah
Not after we just ordered chips, u were saying you didn't want any chips
Typical
Anyway
Let me guess
U think it's a chip on my shoulder, nah I carry stress
Ohh, well, get my backpack, so I hit the road
Like Jack don't look back now
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart beat
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart breathe
Had a sinking feeling at first
But I'm still afloat
The ship is sailed and you're pissed
'Cause you missed the boat
I ain't here to rub your face in it
I thought you were the one who got away
But I was the one you got away with
Gave you so much of me, I lost myself
Now your telling me you miss the me, when I was myself
Which is strange
'Cause you wanted me to change
So I changed for you
Made every morsel of me available
Next thing It's maybe I ain't the one
And I ain't for you
You wanted me to change
Only to resent the me I became
'Cause I changed
But I changed for you
An now you hate me cause I ain't myself
Who do I hate if I hate me, but I ain't myself?!
Is it any wonder that I ain't myself?!
Wish I could hate you as much as I hate me
How can I blame you
The only one that I can blame's myself
I thought I found the love I sought
Was so in love with you
I trusted you
As uncomfortable
As it was to do
I opened up to you
And become vulnerable
See when I met you an you met me
I thought finally, somebody who gets me
It was ecstasy
Said if we, go to war we go together
Arm in arm, you'd be next to me
Never thought you'd use any a this against me
But all you've ever done is use it against me
Said I was meant for you
Thought you were meant for me
But I guess it wasn't meant... haha
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart beat
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart breathe
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart beat
Selfish love
You're pulling at my seams
Stop weighing me down
Won't you let my heart breathe
Maybe I was spose to marry ya
But when it comes to smart cells never been a carrier
When it comes to ourselves
Me I been the barrier
I knew u needed more
And I was never there enough
Yeah, fair enough
In that Instagram square it looks like they're in love
Them squares there ain't got the whole surface area
