Lyrics & Translation

[English]

(I know you've been goin' through it)

I look for you when I'm done acting crazy (save me)

I think you can be the one to save me

It's like even for they own problems, everybody blame me (they blame me)

We start to grow apart, I'll never be the same me (I'll never be the same)

Girls be saying that they love me, it just feel like lust

I could get a thousand girls and still no one to trust

Every time we go out, we be going up

Help me count up 'cause I count on you to show me love

When I ran into her, I'm like, "Where you been hiding?"

Just like all my flights, all her pages on private

Try to give her space but she stay on my body

I know you been going through shit for me lately (lately)

But it's worth it 'cause I know how seriously you take me (I know)

She tell me that what these people say will never break me

Only you see my real side, these people get the fake me

(Only you get my real side, my real side)

If it ain't you, then I don't want no one

(I tried comparing but you don't compare to no one)

My diamonds shinin' bright but you still make sure I get some sun

(You the first one that I walk to when my show done)

Always working when I'm with you, the only time I'm having fun

If it ain't you, then I don't want no one

I know you been going through shit for me lately

...

But it's worth it 'cause I know how seriously you take me

She tell me that what these people say will never break me

Only you see my real side, these people get the fake me

(Only you get my real side)

(I know you been going through shit for me lately, lately)

But it's worth it 'cause I know how seriously you take me (how seriously you take me)

She tell me that what these people say will never break me

...

Only you see my real side, these people get the fake me (yeah, yeah, yeah)

...
