Knife Wounds

(album: Web Life - 2018)

How I'm supposed to trust you?
When you was tryna be someone that never was you
Had knife wounds in my back when I hugged you
And I told you I never thought you'd make me shed blood too, but
That shit cut me so deeply
For dead, you tried to leave me
But I ain't let that shit defeat me
Picked up myself and I made it look so easy

Yeah I made it look so easy
Didn't get discouraged from the way you used to treat me
Doubted me at first, now everybody believe me
Blind, they was Stevie, now they can see me
Shining, standing high, it's like I was tall as on the cliff of the ocean
Fuck attention, I used to holler, couldn't get 'em to notice
Tried it every time with my problems, how could you be so roguish
How could that be your focus, yeah
To drain all of my energy, you give all your effort
All the sudden they my enemies, we just all together
Not only I depend on me, I'ma stand tall forever
It's fuck y'all forever, life without y'all is better

How I'm supposed to trust you?
When you was tryna be someone that never was you
Had knife wounds in my back when I hugged you
And I told you I never thought you'd make me shed blood too, but
That shit cut me so deeply
For dead, you tried to leave me
But I ain't let that shit defeat me
Picked up myself and I made it look so easy

My intuition got me tripping, thinking back, reminiscing
Late nights, early mornings, with nobody to listen
Fight until we fucking, loving the thought of lusting
What's the point of loving when ain't no fucking trustin'?

And that's when I switch the subject
You start looking like you puzzled, waiting on answers for questions
So I answer with nothing, the silence push all your buttons
Girl how I'm supposed to trust you?
You forgot how deep you cut me
Cold blooded, left the scene so bloody
Don't even got no heart, how you gon' tell me you love me?
Was against me from the start and acting like you was for me
From my partner to my opponent, thought my enemy was my homie, uh

How I'm supposed to trust you?
When you was tryna be someone that never was you
Had knife wounds in my back when I hugged you
And I told you I never thought you'd make me shed blood too, but
That shit cut me so deeply
For dead, you tried to leave me
But I ain't let that shit defeat me
Picked up myself and I made it look so easy
