By My Side by SwizZz Lyrics
[Chorus]
Are you really by my side?
Or an option you resort to to pass time?
I can't replace your loneliness, the phony shit won't work
Thinking reaching out to me to avoid addressing what hurts
And I'm only making it worse
'Cause you don't need me in your life
Can't comprehend the shit I sacrificed
What I did to make it right
And I had to pay the price, right
And you don't need me by your side
[Verse]
Nah, less effort with more production
I'm done trying, especially if it's for nothing
There's no fronting, forget the script you try to follow
Another late text won't change the outcome of tomorrow
Another back and fourth debate and reaching for the bottle
Or useless confrontation screaming everything is [?]
This shit ain't meant for me but I opened you up
Feelings I should've kept shut
Guess I expected too much, maybe suggested too much
Or too little depending on who you talk to
Looking for houses, even conducted a few walk throughs
Plotting the course of a future on feelings not true
Just another tribute to obstacles that we fought through
Tried and couldn't succeed
Fell short trying to supply what you need
Don't have to ask how it fell apart when you lost what you see
No more gestures to misinterpret 'cause there's nothing to read
You wanted distance to breathe? No, I need distance to be
You're only seeking attention and it's not coming from me
I got no energy left, plus this ain't really regret
Just a distraction that will amuse you til it's onto the next
So move onto the next
Your friends always knew better than me
Couldn't think for yourself, took their advice and tell it to me, spell it for me
I got [?] too
Won't revisit the same mistakes 'cause you need something to do
We're good
[Chorus]
Are you really by my side?
Or an option you resort to to pass time?
I can't replace your loneliness, the phony shit won't work
Thinking reaching out to me to avoid addressing what hurts
And I'm only making it worse
'Cause you don't need me in your life
Can't comprehend the shit I sacrificed
What I did to make it right
And I had to pay the price, right
And you don't need me by your side
Are you really by my side?
Or an option you resort to to pass time?
I can't replace your loneliness, the phony shit won't work
Thinking reaching out to me to avoid addressing what hurts
And I'm only making it worse
'Cause you don't need me in your life
Can't comprehend the shit I sacrificed
What I did to make it right
And I had to pay the price, right
And you don't need me by your side
[Verse]
Nah, less effort with more production
I'm done trying, especially if it's for nothing
There's no fronting, forget the script you try to follow
Another late text won't change the outcome of tomorrow
Another back and fourth debate and reaching for the bottle
Or useless confrontation screaming everything is [?]
This shit ain't meant for me but I opened you up

Guess I expected too much, maybe suggested too much
Or too little depending on who you talk to
Looking for houses, even conducted a few walk throughs

Just another tribute to obstacles that we fought through
