Lyrics
Promise you I ain't fixing to give in go picking up the phone and call you up
Expressing determination not to yield, avoiding contacting the person
Ain't dialing your best friends, hoping you're with them
Avoiding reaching out to mutual friends to check on the person
Go all in and push my luck
Taking risks and fully committing to a situation
Not trying to do the wrong things right
Acknowledging the intention to avoid making mistakes in relationships
Not even drinking just trying to get by
Not resorting to drinking but struggling to cope
Guess time is gonna get me through
Accepting that time will help overcome difficulties
What I really wanna do is
Expressing a desire to engage in certain actions
Go out drinking and thinking about my own self
Wishing to focus on personal well-being and enjoyment
Posting photos and hoping its putting you through hell
Trying to cause emotional distress through social media
Downtown every night of the week, still losing sleep about you and me
Continuing a routine, feeling troubled about the relationship
But not the way that I have been lately
Not wanting to experience the current emotional state
Wish I could but it just can't change me
Recognizing the difficulty in changing one's nature
You make it look so easy to do
Acknowledging the other person's seemingly effortless actions
But it's hard to be like you
Expressing the challenge of emulating the other person
Hard to be like you
Reiterating the difficulty in being like the other person
Wouldn't be an issue, I wouldn't miss you
Stating that not missing the person wouldn't be a problem
If I could live my life like you
Questioning the impact of living a life similar to the other person
Would it make me stronger, or does it take longer
Wondering if adopting the other person's approach would be beneficial
To deal with it like I do
Questioning the time it takes to cope with situations
Not trying to do the wrong things right
Reiterating the intention to avoid making mistakes
Just sitting praying wishing maybe that I
Sitting and praying for strength to endure difficulties
Could find the strength to get me through
Seeking strength to navigate through challenges
Cause' what I really wanna do is
Expressing a desire to engage in specific actions
Go out drinking and thinking about my own self
Similar to line #8, emphasizing self-focus and enjoyment
Posting photos and hoping its putting you through hell
Repeating the desire to cause emotional distress through photos
Downtown every night of the week, still losing sleep about you and me
Continuing the routine, struggling with sleep over the relationship
But not the way that I have been lately
Expressing discontent with the current emotional state
Wish I could but it just can't change me
Acknowledging the difficulty in personal change
You make it look so easy to do
Reiterating the perceived ease of the other person's actions
But it's hard to be like you…
Repeating the challenge of emulating the other person
Hard to be like you
Reiterating the difficulty in being like the other person
You make it look so easy to do
Repeating the perceived ease of the other person's actions
And I ain't got nothing left to lose
Expressing a sense of having nothing more to lose
What I really wanna do is
Repeating the desire to engage in specific actions
Go out drinking and thinking about my own self
Similar to lines #8 and #24, focusing on self and enjoyment
Posting photos and hoping it putting you through hell
Repeating the desire to cause emotional distress through photos
Downtown every night of the week, still losing sleep about you and me
Continuing the routine, struggling with sleep over the relationship
But not the way that I have been lately
Expressing discontent with the current emotional state
Wish I could but it just can't change me
Acknowledging the difficulty in personal change
You make it look so easy to do
Reiterating the perceived ease of the other person's actions
Oh, you make it look so easy to do
Emphasizing the seeming effortlessness of the other person
But it's hard to be like you
Repeating the challenge of emulating the other person
Hard to be like you
Reiterating the difficulty in being like the other person
Hard to be like you
Repeating the challenge of emulating the other person
