The Black Ace - AAY

Live in this world every night
Don't mean to get black and white
But I got no balance, my perfect picture perfect is so far out of sight
Out of focus, I should tilt it to the right
Show me what's right
Lord tell me, what did I fight for just for us to both fight?
Since forever, we were tight
Nowadays, I'm just locking up tight
Dripping in sadness, I'm drowning, drowning
More water leaking than fountains, fountains
Hidden inside but I'm letting it out
Cause when there's a leak then eventually all of that water will spout
Used to know what I'm bout
Now I really know what I'm bout, Ah
Now I really know what I'm bout
Just ain't about you (just ain't about, just ain't about)
Just ain't about, just ain't about you, girl (If you know you know)
This ain't about you (this ain't about, this ain't about)
This ain't about you, girl (If you know you know)
Filling your mind with these lies
Filling your phone with these guys
Empty inside
Feeling your thighs
Memories one of a kind
Or maybe two
Cause now they just that
Can't get my trust back, now I'm over it too
Lucky for you, I'm making moves
My life has been hell even way before you
So now I'm back on my shit like I never left
Just like yo ex, show me them texts
How bout that dude doing tech? He lucky I don't play with TECs
I'm just upset, don't take it serious
I wanted things to go fast, now I'm furious
Patiently waiting is something I did
But now I'm all out, we gon just fall out
I'm just too sick (you lucky), I'm tired of this shit
Dripping in sadness, I'm drowning, drowning
More water leaking than fountains, fountains
Hidden inside but I'm letting it out
Cause when there's a leak then eventually all of that water will spout
Used to know what I'm bout
Now I really know what I'm bout, Ah
Now I really know what I'm bout
Just ain't about you (just ain't about, just ain't about)
Just ain't about, just ain't about you, girl (If you know you know)
This ain't about you (this ain't about, this ain't about)
This ain't about you, girl (If you know you know)
I wanted answers, sharing my truth
I wanted peace, needed the booth
I wanted love, made it a drug
Shit, that always be getting the youth, right
I canal all my pain from my roots
I got wisdom in more than my tooth
The pain is a cost of the gain so I'm saying there's more to this chapter than just you
Sometimes you must lose, so when you win
The victory tasting sweet as a sin
And I got a sweet tooth, blame it on the old me
Back when I was 7, had to leave my old homies
Every kind of space, had to fill it up myself
Thought you had a space, now you filling up the shelf
Thought I fit in place but you needed something else
And I can't teach that, you know that only time will tell
But last time we spoke, couldn't even wish you well
Over some shit that I couldn't spell right
And now every night, I dwell like
Why I still gotta picture of us in my wallet?
Cause you were my lottery number and I thought they had called it
Dripping in sadness, I'm drowning, drowning
More water leaking than fountains, fountains
Hidden inside but I'm wearing it out
Cause when there's a leak then eventually all of that water will spout
Used to know what I'm bout
Now I really know what I'm bout, Ah
Just ain't about you (just ain't about, just ain't about)
Just ain't about, just ain't about you, girl
If you know you know
This ain't about you
This ain't about you, girl
If you know you know
Dripping in madness I'm clowning, clowning
Over the hills I'm shouting, shouting
Help me, help me
Cause when there's a leak, then eventually all of that water will spout,
Used to know what I'm bout
Now I really know what I'm bout, Ah
Now I really know what I'm bout
Just ain't about you
You must have known I was the one
I had my fears, but I wanted love
What can I do to forget you
You had my sleeve, now it feels loose
I'm on my own, shit I'm used to
I'm on my own, shit I'm used to
I'm on my own, shit I'm used to
I'm on my own, shit I'm used to
I'm on my own, shit, I'm used to it
I'm on my own, shit I'm used to
I'm on my own
I'm on my own
