Hopeless Romantic

Yeah You don't know what you lost, you don't know what I gained You don't know how it feels when people mention your name I'm just tryna fit in but see I'm in my own lane, at least you knew that much Different, I'm not the same Good luck finding someone better Please, keep my sweater, the one I gave you at church And when you read that letter, I hope you realize I loved you, I really did I saw you smile felt so happy like a little kid I poured my heart out in that poem that I gave to you Hopeless romantic thinking maybe I should change my views These women seem to start lying when I tell the truth It's like the more I start trying, the less they do Went from a love song to this, things change so fast But then again I can't be reminiscing on the past, I'm thankful for it I grew and plus I wrote this track Thought you were special, cause all I seen before was wack But in the end you just a girl who don't love me back I'm getting over it, I'm trying, I really am It's hard to see you on my timeline on Instagram So I just try to swipe past it and ignore your stories, cause ours is over But you different than you were before me Feel like I gave you a part of me that you can't return And yeah, that paper I wrote on you can rip and burn But all the things you discovered with me, you can't unlearn Know how it feels to be loved, I set the bar so high I don't know if you can get that from another guy And I'm not saying you're not worthy, cause that's just not true I'm just saying it was special how I treated you And when I looked into your eyes I saw more than blue You said you wouldn't waste my time, well I guess that was a lie Now I'm sitting writing rhymes about the girl I thought was mine But I know it's by design, He ain't want us to align He ain't want us to align Listen You remember when I told you I loved you Or when you told me don't be scared cause I could really trust you Now I'm thinking about that moment, did I make a mistake Were the things you told me real or were the feelings all fake Yeah, you held my heart together, then you made that shit break Now I'm sitting in my bed by myself lying awake I'm tired but I can't sleep I'm looking but I can't seem to find the woman that's gon hold me down while I chase these dreams It's crazy cause I thought that was you You told me you were losing feelings, baby, I was too But I knew the reason, it wasn't something that was gonna make me say I'm leaving I would have waited for you, patient is a state of being I understood your situation baby I was in your corner, maybe I was too involved Or maybe we could have resolved all these feelings of guilt Had you distracted, preoccupied, forsaking what we built Yeah I know hiding me wasn't easy Abiding by the rules your parents placed for you wasn't either, but baby listen You told me I was the best man in your life I gave you the best advice Shit, I saw my future wife in you Yeah All that for nothing but a text Went from your name to just ex All I can now is reflect Should I wait for you to come back or just move on to the next Man, this always how it goes, what the f*ck did I expect And that letter you were writing I never got to read I ain't want to win alone, with you was dying to succeed Man, this shit was a reality now it's just a dream Maybe love is what I want, but it's not something I need And that letter you were writing I never got to read I ain't want to win alone, with you was dying to succeed Man, this shit was a reality now it's just a dream Maybe love is what I want, but it's not something I need
