[intro] [instrumental] Yeah! Yeah! Ooh! [verse] Yeah… Shawty, lookin' at you right now, feelin' kinda sick, you know? Like somethin' ain't right, deep down where the shadows grow. Got this pretty thing beside me, everything lookin' gold, But this damn anxiety creepin', stories yet untold. [pre-chorus] And we laughin' low, tangled in the sheets, yeah, the vibe is real, But my mind be racin', thinkin' 'bout how love can kill. This ain't 'bout you, nah, this the demons in my head, you see, Wonderin' when the perfect gon' turn into misery. [chorus] How could I fall? How could I trust? (Yeah…) How could this touch not turn to dust? (Ooh…) How could I stay? How could I believe? (Tell me…) How could this love not make me grieve? (Damn…) [rap verse] Girl, you a real one, no cap, the way you move, the way you stare, Makes a n*gga wanna jump, forget all the damn despair. But this heart been bruised before, seen too many fall, Got me buildin' up these walls, standin' ten feet tall. [pre-chorus] And we chillin' late, under these nocturnal skies so deep, But I'm seein' future heartbreaks in my damn sleep. This ain't 'bout you, nah, this the baggage that I tote, you feel? Wonderin' when this good thing gon' start to peel. [chorus] How could I fall? How could I trust? (Yeah…) How could this touch not turn to dust? (Ooh…) How could I stay? How could I believe? (Tell me…) How could this love not make me grieve? (Damn…) [instrumental] [rap bridge] Damn..., this feelin's like a sanctuary for a little while, Safe from all the madness, just your freakish smile. But I know the sun gon' rise, and the shadows reappear, And this fragile peace we found will drown in all my fear. [instrumental] Ooh! Yeah! [outro]
