Bird Flu

What goes around, comes around, applies to me too I know I hurt you, baby, but I lied to me too See, I could never switch, hope you ride for me too All the years I thugged it out, until I finally meet you Taking off my cool is such a process, why is that? Cutting through my armor tryna dissect You the only one for me, even though I try to run from it, I'm Out of breath now, you upset now Practice makes perfect, need my restitution You see the leap from boys to men, baby, this just my evolution In a rush, broken trust, gotta handle that It's just me alone in this black Cadillac Know we both got options, still I'm locked in (Still I'm locked in) Running after love till I'm exhausted The ones worth everything don't come around often If you want me on, then I'm so off them All this procrastination, no, I'm not like myself Hurts to say I blacked out at a time I needed help Resentment, self-inflicted from the things I never said The story grew some legs, then it really got ahead An open ear could make a stranger feel like she's somebody to me Why I did it wouldn't make no sense to nobody but me So I take a beat, formulate how I feel Words too, been sick, baby, I'm so sick, got bird flu I'm praying on it like my church suit I'm feeling cleansed from my sins, in the end, know I deserve you In a rush, broken trust gotta handle that It's just me alone in this black Cadillac Think I finally got the hang of it If I just You know Yeah, yeah Know we both got options, still I'm locked in (Still I'm locked in) Running after love till I'm exhausted The ones worth everything don't come around often If you want me on, then I'm so off them (No, I won't complain) Even under pressure (It's time to spread my wings) I think I finally understand the lesson (Down to fan the flame) First time felt stuck, grew to feeling better (It makes me wanna sing) Second time around, I wrote a letter (You're all I'll ever need) Third time around I thought I had it figured but I knew (My heart is on my sleeve) It was still some resistance I've been fighting through the truth (They're nothing to me) Yeah-yeah (Never gonna leave ya, baby)
