[INTRO – SPOKEN] Yeah… You ever get to that point where you just stop explaining yourself? Not because you don’t care… You just don’t got the energy anymore. Q..A..S.. [VERSE 1] I been up late, staring at the ceiling, thinking ‘bout my life and everything I’m feeling, phone keep ringing, I don’t wanna answer, everybody needs something, nobody asks what happened. Bills on the table, stress in my chest, smile on my face like I’m doing my best, some days I’m good, some days I’m not, but I keep moving forward with whatever I got. I done gave my trust and watched people waste it, gave them my heart and watched them replace it, I ain’t mad, that’s just life sometimes, you find out who’s real when you stop providing. Now I keep my circle small, I don’t tell everybody all, if I fall, I get back up, ain’t nobody gotta catch me when I fall. [PRE-CHORUS – MELODIC] I’m tired of talking, tired of proving, tired of saying what I’m going through… If you really know me, you already know me, and if you don’t— What can I say to you? [CHORUS – CATCHY / STACKED HARMONY] I ain’t got no explanations, I ain’t got no time to waste, if you wanna walk away, I’ma let you find your way. I ain’t got no explanations, you can love me or you don’t, I been trying to keep my peace, I ain’t arguing no more. No more… No more… I ain’t explaining anymore. No more… No more… If you know, you know. [VERSE 2] Everybody got opinions when they sitting on the outside, nobody knows the nights I spent fighting with my own mind, nobody knows the weight I carry when I say I’m alright, sometimes “I’m good” really means “I’m just surviving tonight.” I got people that I love, people I don’t even trust, people that I used to know that I wouldn’t call if I was stuck. That’s the part nobody tells you, sometimes love don’t save you, sometimes doing everything right still ain’t enough to change things. So I quit taking everything personal, quit chasing what ain’t meant for me, if you don’t wanna be around, I won’t beg you to stay with me. I got too much on my plate, too much life left to create, I ain’t spending another year trying to make somebody understand my pain. [PRE-CHORUS – MELODIC] I’m tired of talking, tired of proving, tired of saying what I’m going through… If you really know me, you already know me, and if you don’t— What can I say to you? [CHORUS – CATCHY / STACKED HARMONY] I ain’t got no explanations, I ain’t got no time to waste, if you wanna walk away, I’ma let you find your way. I ain’t got no explanations, you can love me or you don’t, I been trying to keep my peace, I ain’t arguing no more. No more… No more… I ain’t explaining anymore. No more… No more… If you know, you know. [BRIDGE – HALF-TIME] Maybe I’m different, maybe I’m tired, maybe the things that I survived changed how I see life. Maybe I’m distant, maybe I learned, you can’t keep giving out your heart to people who never return it. And that’s alright… I don’t hate you. I just don’t need you to understand me anymore. [VERSE 3 – Q..A..S..] Look— I ain’t perfect, never claimed to be, got some shit in my past that still hangs on me, made mistakes that I wish I could take back, but I learned from the pain, so I don’t hate that. I been broke, I been lost, I been wondering what everything cost, I been standing in the rain with a smile on my face while I’m quietly praying I don’t finally break. And I know what it feels like when the people you love start making you feel like you ain’t doing enough. So I stopped keeping score, stopped knocking on doors, stopped asking for respect from people I don’t respect anymore. If you stay, then stay. If you leave, then go. I ain’t chasing anybody just to prove what I know. I’m still here. Still breathing. Still fighting. Still me. And that’s enough for tonight. [FINAL CHORUS – BIG STACKED HARMONY] I ain’t got no explanations, I ain’t got no time to waste, if you wanna walk away, I’ma let you find your way. I ain’t got no explanations, you can love me or you don’t, I been trying to keep my peace, I ain’t arguing no more. No more… No more… I ain’t explaining anymore. No more… No more… If you know, you know. [OUTRO – SOFT] I’m not angry… I’m just done explaining. Q..A..S..
