Lightskin Legend - Pain & Potential

When I think about you all I know is pain and potential
Would've given you my heart and soul just to sell it
You got dressed up as an angel just to hide the devil
We keep going through the same things, I feel helpless
When I think about you all I know is pain and potential
Would've given you my heart and soul just for you to sell it
You got dressed up as an angel just to hide the devil
We keep going through the same things, I feel helpless

When I think about you all I know is broken promises
Astonishing when you had broke my trust, not what I thought it is
Yeah I thought it went both ways but it broke both ways too
Crazy how you did me wrong, and I still wanna lay with you
Crazy how the strongest love can turn to hatred, it's demoralizing
Even crazier how people get when love is pouring out them
Did you really turn on me or is it more in my head
Pouring out the bedside window, I'm in my feelings more or less
But less is more when it really comes back around
If I'd given you less of my heart, it might be easier now
Thought I was with an angel, so how I'm leaving her now
You told me go to hell, but I hope you're meeting me down there

When I think about you all I know is pain and potential
Would've given you my heart and soul just to sell it
You got dressed up as an angel just to hide the devil
We keep going through the same things, I feel helpless
When I think about you all I know is pain and potential
Would've given you my heart and soul just for you to sell it
You got dressed up as an angel just to hide the devil
We keep going through the same things, I feel helpless

Over and over and over again
The cycle repeats and it don't ever end
We break up and make up and argue again
Was it something you did or just something I said
Who is to blame and does this ever change
One day I thought I would give you my name
One day I thought would give you my
Sometimes it's better to not even say
This is why I lie and say I can't talk to girls again
But it'll never be true, cuz I gotta find your replacement
It might sound bad off the top but it can't be you, and you know it
But we had a real good story, I should know cuz I wrote it
You should know cuz we lived it, even now that it seems different
Now it's looking so twisted, how it all changed our opinions
Those of each other, and love in general
You got me higher off life than your Adderall
Add it all up and it seems like we had it all
Take away pain and complaints and it's laughable
Laugh at it now, but you did have me crying
I can admit, contradicting society
Why is it like this, I can't show my pain
That you caused, no potential could fix, I'm afraid, now

When I think about you all I know is pain and potential
Would've given you my heart and soul just to sell it
You got dressed up as an angel just to hide the devil
We keep going through the same things, I feel helpless
When I think about you all I know is pain and potential
Would've given you my heart and soul just for you to sell it
You got dressed up as an angel just to hide the devil
We keep going through the same things, I feel helpless
