6lack Bird Flu
[Verse 1]
What goes around comes around, applies to me too
I know I hurt you, baby, but I lied to me too
See, I could never switch, hope you ride for me too
All the years I thugged it out, until I finally meet you, look
Takin' off my cool is such a process, why is that?
Cuttin' through my armor tryna dissect
You the only one for me even though I tried to run from it
I'm out of breath now, you upset now
Practice makes perfect, need my restitution
You see the leap from boys to men, baby, this just my evolution
[Refrain]
In a rush, broken trust, gotta handle that
It just me alone in that black Cadillac
[Chorus]
Know we both got options, still I'm locked in (Still I'm locked in)
Runnin' after love 'til I'm exhausted
The ones worth everything don't come 'round often (Come around)
If you want me on, then I'm so off them
[Verse 2]
All this procrastination, no, I'm not like myself (Yeah)
Hurts to say I blacked out at the time I needed help
Resentment, self-inflicted from the things I never said
The story grew some legs, then it really got ahead
An open ear can make a stranger feel like she's somebody to me
Why I did it wouldn't make no sense to nobody but me
So I take a beat, formulate how I feel, words too
Been sick, baby, I'm so sick, got bird flu
I'm prayin' on it like my church suit
I'm feelin' cleansed from my sins, in the end, know I deserve you
[Refrain]
In a rush, broken trust, gotta handle that
It just me alone in that black Cadillac
Hmm, shit
[Interlude]
Think I finally got the hang of it
If I just, you know
Yeah, check
[Chorus]
Know we both got options, still I'm locked in (Still I'm locked in)
Runnin' after love 'til I'm exhausted
The ones worth everything don't come 'round often (Come around)
If you want me on, then I'm so off them
[Outro]
Check, yeah (No, I won't complain)
Even under pressure (It's time to spread my wings)
Think I finally understand the lesson (Down to fan the flame)
First time, felt stuck, grew to feelin' better (It make me wanna sing)
Second time around, I wrote a letter (You're all I'll ever need)
Third time around, I thought I had it figured (My heart is on my sleeve)
But I knew it was still some resistance, I've been fightin' through the truth
They're nothin' to me
Yeah, yeah
Never gonna leave you, baby
