Lyrics
[Intro]
(yeah)
Late night
Same fight
Same questions in your eyes
You still here though
[Chorus]
Why me? Why me?
’Cause I know you got plenty of options
So why me? Why me?
’Cause I know I'm never good for nobody
Why me? Why me?
When you could have anybody watching
So why me? Why me?
’Cause I know I'm never good for nobody
[Verse 1]
You coulda left when the rent was late
When I blamed the world and I came home faded
When I scrolled through names
Tryna text temptation
Put the phone back down
Saw your pic
Heart shaking
You stayed when my car broke
Bus stop mornings
Same grey hoodie
Same cheap Jordans
You laughed at my jokes that were hardly funny
Turned ramen and crumbs to a five-star Sunday
You met my demons in a one-room place
Ash on the counter
Shame on my face
You sat on the mattress
Fingers on my pulse
Said
“You ain’t your past
You just feel that ghost”
Still I’m scared every time you dress up
Thinking this the night that you finally give up
All them blue ticks in your DM thread
Why you leave them on read
Still lying in my bed?
[Chorus]
Why me? Why me?
’Cause I know you got plenty of options
So why me? Why me?
’Cause I know I'm never good for nobody
Why me? Why me?
When you could have anybody watching
So why me? Why me?
’Cause I know I'm never good for nobody
[Verse 2]
You saw me snap
Saw me slam that door
Punch that wall till my knuckles sore
You wiped the blood with your own old shirt
Said
“Talk to me first when you feel that hurt”
I grew up where we bottle everything
Then burst
Where “I love you” comes out like a joke at first
I push you away
Then I pull you close
You still pour grace like another dose
Got scars on your heart I ain’t healed yet
Trust issues twitch when my phone lights
Yeah
I know my silence be loud as a siren
Make you feel small while I’m stuck in my spirals
I see you curl up on the far side
Quiet
Checking if I’m mad or I’m just tired
I hate that I make you read my moods like signs
When you should be the one getting peace
Not mine
If I’m poison
Say it
Don’t sugar it up
If I’m weight on your wings
You can cut that rope
I’ll act tough
But I’d rather hurt alone
Than watch your bright soul start dimming to smoke
[Chorus]
Why me? Why me?
’Cause I know you got plenty of options
So why me? Why me?
’Cause I know I'm never good for nobody
Why me? Why me?
When you could have anybody watching
So why me? Why me?
’Cause I know I'm never good for nobody
[Verse 3]
Maybe you pick me ’cause you see my fight
’Cause you caught me praying in the dark one night
Mumbling
“Change me
Don’t take her away”
Tears on the floor with the bills unpaid
Maybe you choose me ’cause you love a project
Or ’cause you see diamond where I see wreckage
You say
“You’re enough” while I list my flaws
You don’t flinch once when I show those scars
You met my fam at that backyard cookout
Uncle too loud
Kids running all around
You washed dishes with my mom
Back turned
Talking ’bout dreams while the rice still burned
You part of my roots now
Stitched in my story
I still feel unworthy of that glory
But if you stay
I swear I’ll grow
Turn every “I don’t know” to “watch this
Go”
I’ll book that therapy
Lay it all bare
Learn to say “I’m wrong
” learn to meet you there
’Cause if you keep choosing this broken me
I’m done being cruel to the one who believes
[Chorus]
