Niteboi - This Is Where I Stand

Know what? I told you
You know that I'm gone
And you can no longer tear me down
Tell me now
Was it worth it?
I see now, you fallin' apart
So, you can no longer tear me down
Tear me down, Tear me-
Yeah, okay
You can't tear me
Yeah, uh
Can't tear me down, tear me down
Tear me down, tear me down
Can't- (Tear me down)
You took out my heart and you ate it on a platter with that nigga you was fuckin' on (Mm)
I took back my power and along with them Nikes you never stepped your foot upon (Damn)
I guess none of that matters now, you never needed me anyway
But, who you think you frontin' on? (Yeah)
I gave you a mind set you never thought you needed, but instead you receded on
Implying that I cheated on you
Whole time I been alone
Gaslightin' me up, but, no, you don't ever feel you wrong
You don't even really feel the songs
God showed where I'm really from
Time shows we been in this long and God said we been hittin' strong
We just trying to make it back home (Home)
In this life, we ride roller coasters
Feel a need, trying to find more
Love has been blinding my focus
Lust what's been keeping me close
Know what? I told you
You know that I'm gone
And you can no longer tear me down
Tell me now
Was it worth it?
I see now, you fallin' apart
So, you can no longer tear me down
Tear me down, Tear me down
Cleaned the slate, brand new track
These apexes, gon' attack
Life to face and ain't gon' wait
Life done showed me that's a trap
I done said it and I meant it
Peace at mind when I relax
Guilty conscious, what is that?
Mind is free and loving back
For the record, I kept you around to help finish this record
Hurt myself, I found what's goin' down, now it's real as ever
No, there's nothing you can tell me now that can make us better
I know that you probably hate me now, God said "Let her go"
We don't want to be broken, we want love
Whether that's in us or broken up
I know I'm not the only one
We drown these sorrows in these cups
Trying to numb pain and we made it worse
I was goin' insane trying to make this work
You forced my hand, this where I stand, this where I stand
This where I stand
You know that I'm gone
Don't keep fallin' apart
You can't face me now, 'cause I made it out, made it out, made it out
It's amazing, face it, baby, you can't take it (Yeah)
Face it, baby, could've been amazing
No snakes in this space where I'm placing myself, myself
It's amazing, baby, wish you would've taken my help, my help
It's amazing ain't it? It's life changing (Yeah)
Face it, baby, could've been amazing
It's amazing, baby, it's life changing
Face it, baby, could've been amazing
It's amazing, baby, it's life changing
Face it, baby, could've been amazing
