Paint Me As A Villain

(album: These Long Nights - 2022)

Ooh
Going out feeling less more
Losing you for loving me, that's what life's meant for
Learned a lot, but looking back, I think I left more
Yeah, it's a long story, baby, 10-4
10-4, yeah
Yeah
Mainstream flow, I been barhopping, yeah
'Til the sun's up, no we ain't stopping, yeah
Flying sky high anytime you walk in
And I thought I saw you, and a thought popped in, yeah

I did a lot for you, yeah
I did a lot for you, a lot more than I should have, yeah
A lot more than I should have, so

If you paint me as a villain, use the color red
Put it on my jacket, on my jeans make 'em rip
If you paint me as a villain, chains around my neck
Dress me in designer with a hole around my chest, yeah
I was so good to you, yeah
And your friends all know, oh
I was so good to you, yeah
And you won't say so, oh
Yeah, they all don't know

When you left, I got right
On a whim, took a flight
Got a shawty to the right
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ain't for me, for the night
Better views, outta sight
If it's something, it's alright, yeah
I been on the way up anytime I'm downtown
I'm the type to do a lot, never say it out loud
I'm the type to give a lot, never getting much out, yeah
Did it all for you, where you at now? Yeah

I did a lot for you, yeah
I did a lot for you, a lot more than I should have, yeah
A lot more than I should have, so

If you paint me as a villain, use the color red
Put it on my jacket, on my jeans make 'em rip
If you paint me as a villain, chains around my neck
Dress me in designer with a hole around my chest, yeah
I was so good to you, yeah
And your friends all know, oh
I was so good to you, yeah
And you won't say so, oh
Yeah, they all don't know
