I know you got a lotta demons clogging up your past
I can do some cleaning up for you, but I know we won't last past the winter time
'Cause summer's coming and the nigga trying to hit a dime or two
But come next fall I'm finding you, and we can do it all again
My niggas call it legacy
I fear that the best days I've had are not ahead of me
And 'cause of that I'm searching for the one that got away from me
So busy looking back that I can't see what God has made for me
And I'll be texting you, texting you
I'm tryna find the one who got away from me
Yeah, I'm still texting you, texting you
Hey, I'm tryna find the one who got away
Commitment issues, I can't even decide what's for dinner
Pardon these selfish flows, I need to yelp for hoes
I need to read reviews, 'cause some of the evil that I've seen you do is unbelievable
Menopause shit, inconceivable, tennis ball shit
Causing that racket outside my mama house, what's it all about?
Guess it's a thin line between love and hate, the love we make is temporary
Like this lovely place, I'm living in, wait, that's contemporary
Never mind, I'm tripping in, but then again, it's hard to settle in this modern era
We could be as tight as that dress you barely fitting in
But my fear of missing out has got me on a trip again
Riding to that A-Town, that A-Town, tour bus, no Greyhound
My lust is profound, your trust is break sound
Your heart don't glue back, quite right
My heart is too black like white flight
They push them people to the suburbs, now they want their city back
So they raise the rent and the property tax
Why I feel like in a few years I'll relate to that?
Knowing I let you go and regretting that fact
'Cause I done spent so long playing games and holding back
From giving all of me, too scared that I won't get it back
And yes, I'm well aware, I rhyme the word back with back
'Cause that's exactly the direction that I'm tired of looking at
And that's why I be, texting you, texting you
I'm tryna find the one who got away from me
Texting you, texting you
Hey, I'm tryna find the one who got away
Yeah, rollin' around in Lincoln Town cars on my way to the spot
Passin' the bottle, wishin' I found a way to make time stop, intoxicated
Runnin' with gangsters with their hammers on cocked, I'm infatuated
'Cause I know deep down that they everything that I'm not
And that's why I'm texting you, texting you
And I be texting you, texting you
Call me when you wanna fly, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell you all the reasons why, yeah, yeah, yeah
Young is turning old, yeah, yeah, yeah
Summer's turning to snow, yeah, yeah, yeah
Memories and lullabies, yeah, yeah, yeah
Floating in a lonely sky, yeah, yeah, yeah
When the weather's getting cold, yeah, yeah, yeah
You're the one I wanna hold, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Even back then, we knew what road to choose
It's been so much time and it's that much more to lose
Even back then, we knew what road to choose
It's been so much time and it's that much more to lose
