Girl, you know I got a girl back home, why you textin'?
Say you going through some things, love, why you stressin'?
Sit your ass down, though, you should tell me everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
Ayy, dawg, why you always broke boy balling when I see you?
Instagram stories on Evil Knievel
But pull up to the spot, I'ma spot you on everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
Ayy, love, I know you need space right now, I can feel that
I should make some time for myself, can't conceal it
But tell me what you need, baby, I'ma give you everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything
Ayy, bruh, fuck shit's on the rise, slow tide but I'm locked in
Responsibilities, ain't no option
I'll meet your ass in 20 minutes, I'ma do everything
(Everything) everything, (everything) everything
(Everything) everything

I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes
I know what you feeling, I been through it all before, uh
Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy
(Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy
(Empathy) empathy
Ah, I know how it is, yeah, I know how it goes (goes)
I know what you feeling, I been through it all before ('fore)
Tell me what you need, hit a dose of this empathy
(Empathy) empathy, (empathy) empathy
(Empathy) empathy (yeah, yeah)

[BJRNCK:]
You been on my thoughts, lately
I can feel your heart, maybe
You should let me help you
Let me help you, help you
Help you, oh, help you
Your problems are my problems
I digest in high volume
Lean on me whenever you're not strong
Not strong, not strong
Not strong, not strong

Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh

[Sylvan LaCue (BJRNCK):]
Exerted all my energy, lonely nights in this room
I should prolly be meditating or talking to God
But I'ma talk to you 'bout what you going through vividly
Thank me for understanding, mistake it for chemistry
How many words of wisdom do you require for empathy?
I put myself in so many other shoes
Ain't no punch for that bag I carry
I'm wary of the ways of this world
Deflecting my issues, but what's yours?
See, I could be the shoulder you lean and weep all your tears on
Make me feel like king when I make you feel like your fears gone
'Cause you're not alone
Somebody gets what you been going through
But what about what I'm going through?
Luckily, I built castles around these wild emotions
Flooded waters with liquor potions
Combine, you'll get mixed explosives
Volcanoes of feelings erupt at any given time
(Ooh-ahh)
I should prolly turn my phone off and disappear
(Ooh-ahh)
I should prolly cut you off, this is getting weird
(Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh)
I should prolly say I'm busy, I'll hit you later and lie about it
Would you understand or be pissed and cry about it?
Empathy
(Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh
Ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh)
