Bird Flu

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 was such a process, why's 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

In a rush, broken trust, gotta handle that
It just me alone in that black Cadillac

Know we both got options, still I'm locked in (Still I'm locked in)
Runnin' after love till I'm exhausted
The ones worth everything don't come 'round often (Come around)
If you want me on, then I'm so off then

All this procrastination, no, I'm not like myself (Yeah)
Hearses 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
A open ear can make a stranger bitch feel like she 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 do
I'm feelin' cleansed from my sins, in the end, know I deserve you

In a rush, broken trust, gotta handle that
It just me alone in that black Cadillac
Hmm, shit

Think I finally got the hang of it
If I just, you know
Yeah, check

Know we both got options, still I'm locked in (Still I'm locked in)
Runnin' after love till I'm exhausted
The ones worth everything don't come 'round often (Come around)
If you want me on, then I'm so off then

Check, yeah
Even under pressure ([?])
Think I finally understand the lesson ([?])
First time, felt stuck, grew to feelin' better
Second time around, I wrote a letter
Third time around, I thought I had it figured
But I knew it was still some resistance, I been fightin' through the truth
[?]
Yeah
Never gonna leave you
