Lyrics

I told I em no matter what it is I always got you

Expressing unwavering support and commitment to someone, regardless of the situation.

And you aint gotta ask me I just do it cause I want to

Acting without being asked, motivated by personal desire to help.

But I don’t think you’d do the same I gotta face the hard truth

Realizing a doubt about the reciprocity of the same level of commitment from the other person.

But that’s just what it is I can’t depend on others hearts too

Acknowledging the need to rely on oneself as others may not have the same level of dedication.

And it’s stupid

Expressing frustration or disbelief at the situation.

Expecting all it back to be excluded

Finding it unreasonable to expect similar dedication in return.

Messing with my heart yeah yall so ruthless

Feeling emotionally affected by others who are perceived as heartless or unkind.

You’d never do the same but hey I knew this

Acceptance of the perceived lack of reciprocity, indicating prior awareness of this imbalance.


Maybe it’s on me the way I always want it back

Considering personal responsibility for expecting reciprocation.

Cause I don’t think you think the way I think I know it’s fact

Recognizing a difference in perspective and understanding it as a reality.

And I just feel like maybe you'd just realize where we at

Hoping for the other person to comprehend the situation and act accordingly.

And you’d find it in your heart to act the way I always act for you

Desiring the other person to reciprocate the same level of action and care.

But maybe that’s the reason that I always feel let down

Suggesting a consistent feeling of disappointment, possibly due to unmet expectations.

Maybe it’s on me the way I wanna make you proud

Taking responsibility for wanting acknowledgment and approval from the other person.

Maybe it’s on me the way I live up in the clouds when everything is falling down

Admitting a tendency to live in a positive or idealistic state despite facing challenges.

And everybody only out for themselves

Observing a general trend of self-interest in others.

But I give you a part of myself

Highlighting a consistent act of giving a part of oneself to the other person.

And was always there just to help

Stating a history of being supportive and helpful to the other person.

But you wouldn’t do the same for me

Reiterating the belief that the other person would not reciprocate the same level of support.
