Not Ever After

[Intro]

You’re mine, you’re mine


---

[Hook]

You’re mine, you’re mine for now, I’m yours,
but it won’t be like this forever, baby.
The time looked right, well how blind was I—
matter of time till you go crazy lately.

It’s getting worse. My nerves are shot.
My heart’s confused and it is racing, baby.
Should go I know, but my growth is slow.
My self-control is in the making, baby.

You’re leading me to believe
that peace is what you seek.
It’s all you’re after. Baby,
don’t make me laugh ‘cause that makes you mad.
It’s after all not ever after, baby.

[Verse] 

So many times I believed you when you said
you’d show a little more sympathy, baby,
but my shoes you won’t go—
far from a perfect fit, that just leaves room to grow
but growth just ain’t your thing.

Not a inch like Florida snow.
Thought you were deep so I dove,
bumped my head, lump rose
and pushed up the lightbulb that shined the glow—
exposed just what friends are fo’.

Friends just turned to fo’.
Life so cold it’s sick,
laid on thick by the coat.
No really—bundle up.
You need to humble up.

The storm’s not ABC.
It’s AC/DC, thunderstruck.
So whether or not it’s us,
I wish you the best of luck.
I hope you feel the same in due time.
Until then you’re…

[Bridge – Power Shift]

You say you want peace, well you got it.
Peace out—but don’t thank me. You’re not welcome.
Now the mat reads keep out.
You tried walking all over me but failed horribly.

Who feels defeat now?
So I’ma make it clear and loud:
I’m walking to my own rhythm.
You hear the beat… bounce.

[Outro – Echo Fade]

“Should go, I know…”
“…but my growth is slow”
“My self-control…”
“…is in the making, baby”

“You’re leading me to believe…”
“…that peace is what you seek”
“But overall, it’s after all…”
“…not ever after, baby”

“Not ever after…”
