Myself by Gabe XO Lyrics
[Chorus]
Don’t want to look back at the past but these days only getting harder I been holding on for way too long
I put the commas over drama nowadays I’m moving smarter it’s the only thing that keeps me strong
And I don’t want to be the one to break your heart
But I can’t promise you that I’m the one to stay
Cause I do better by myself I swear I don’t need no else and I don’t wanna have it any other way
[Verse 1]
This money coming in but it don’t change a thing cause I been on it
Tryna push me out the way but I’m gonna get to it regardless
Bitches lying to my face and now they wonder why I’m heartless
It’s embedded in my brain and it’s been fucking with my conscience
I need that ice around my neck I love the way that it be shining
I know I ain’t perfect but I hope u see me trying
Hide a lot of pain I cover up when I be smiling
Making noise like symphony's she singing like a violin
How you changing on me can’t believe that I was fucking with you
Now they speaking on me they don’t know about the shit I been through
Watching every move it’s funny how they tryna press the issue
Do me wrong and only once and tell me what that karma gets you
Holding back these tears the only thing to do is reminisce
Staring at the mirror I kept my word and I ain’t breaking it
I know how it feels to walk around and think u don’t exist
This one for the kids who feeling broken hope u feeling this
[Chorus]
Don’t want to look back at the past but these days only getting harder I been holding on for way too long
I put the commas over drama nowadays I’m moving smarter it’s the only thing that keeps me strong
And I don’t want to be the one to break your heart
But I can’t promise you that I’m the one to stay
Cause I do better by myself I swear I don’t need no else and I don’t wanna have it any other way
[Verse 2]
I can’t ever let it go
I been holding on too long
80 proof inside my body some days I can’t even cope
I’m so used to feeling broken yeah I felt the ground before
These people telling me to stop it just keep holding on to hope
And I get tired I keep trying and trying so many times
Tryna keep my sanity reading between the lines
I’m done showing all this sympathy had to leave it behind
Cause I know they won’t do the same for me until I ain’t alive
People leasing all these chains and all these foreigns just to flaunt it
I just wanna make my family proud and get em what they wanted
These bitches never kept it real I swear they always be dishonest
I been waiting for that day until we take off like a rocket
Early mornings long nights make it hard for me to sleep
It’s like a rope around my neck it’s getting hard for me to breathe
They don’t know of my potential they just kept me underneath
Now they hearing all my songs I got em clenching on they teeth
[Chorus]
Don’t want to look back at the past but these days only getting harder I been holding on for way too long
I put the commas over drama nowadays I’m moving smarter it’s the only thing that keeps me strong
And I don’t want to be the one to break your heart
But I can’t promise you that I’m the one to stay
Cause I do better by myself I swear I don’t need no else and I don’t wanna have it any other way
Don’t want to look back at the past but these days only getting harder I been holding on for way too long
I put the commas over drama nowadays I’m moving smarter it’s the only thing that keeps me strong
And I don’t want to be the one to break your heart
But I can’t promise you that I’m the one to stay
Cause I do better by myself I swear I don’t need no else and I don’t wanna have it any other way
[Verse 1]
