Lyrics

We were so healthy

We were in good health.

That’s what i’d tell my friends

That's the impression I gave to my friends.

They’d ask how we been doin

When asked about our well-being, I confidently asserted everything made sense.

I said it all makes sense

Our situation seemed logical and understandable.


See the thing is

I believed I had a deep understanding.

I thought I really knew

Realized that being young and in love feels like a doomed situation.

Turns out being young and in love

Being young and in love turned out to be challenging.

Is feeling doomed

Expressing the sense of inevitability in youthful love.


I thought that i could fix my head if i really tried

Believed I could overcome my mental struggles through effort.

But there was nothing holding me back more than my mind

Nothing held me back more than my own thoughts.


Truth is there are things i wanna say

There are things I want to say.

But i’ve learned a lot on the way

Learned important lessons along the journey.

I have confessions, thoughts, and outbreaks in my head

My mind is filled with confessions, thoughts, and emotional outbreaks.

But none of that would have changed us walking ahead, walking ahead

Despite the internal turmoil, none of it would have altered our decision to move forward.


I tried to fight it

Attempted to resist the inevitable.

You knew just how it be

You were aware of the reality.

You said that we were lovers

Despite being labeled as lovers, I felt lost.

I felt so lost at sea

Experiencing confusion and uncertainty.


Well the thing is

Love is challenging.

Love can be hard

Love can be difficult to navigate.

But when it wasn’t my number one

When love wasn't my top priority, I went to great lengths.

I went pretty far

Compromised when love wasn't the primary focus.


I thought that I could fix our love if I really tried

Believed I could mend our love through effort.

But there was nothing holding us back more than the signs

Nothing held us back more than the signs indicating problems.


Truth is there are things i wanna say

There are things I want to express.

But i’ve learned a lot on the way

Gained valuable insights on the journey.

I have confessions, thoughts, and outbreaks in my head

Internal struggles persist, but they wouldn't have altered our decision to move forward.

But none of that would have changed us walking ahead, walking ahead


Ahead of the bullshit,

Ahead of the deceptive behavior.

Ahead of the lies,

Anticipating falsehoods.

Ahead of the jealousy

Ahead of envy and possessiveness.

I focused on all the time

Emphasizing the importance of time.


Truth is there are things i wanna say

Things I want to express persist.

But i’ve learned a lot on the way

Continued learning from experiences.

I have confessions, thoughts, and outbreaks in my head

Mental struggles persist, but they wouldn't have altered my decision to move forward.

But none of that would have changed my walk ahead, my walk ahead
