Midwest boi's......

(Intro)
(Yeah...)
(Damn...)
(Ayy, ayy...)
I see it now... too late when the smoke clear... (woo)
Too busy fightin' ghosts... (ghosts)
Lost the only thing that was real... (damn)

---

(Chorus 1)
I know I fucked up, turned your love into coldness (cold)
You gave me your heart, I gave you broken moments (damn)
Told me a thousand times you'd ride through the storm (you did)
But I was too blind to see what I had all along (facts)
Now I'm lookin' at the past while my future disappear (gone)
Tryna hold it all together but I'm drownin' in these tears (yeah)
You wanted all my love, all I gave was disrespect (damn)
Now I'm left with these regrets playin' over in my head (woo)

---

(Verse 1)
You was callin' for my heart, I was answerin' with anger (anger)
Every conversation turned into another danger (damn)
You kept beggin' me to listen, I kept pushin' you away (away)
Now I replay every word every night and every day (facts)
You was solid from the jump, never switched, never folded (never)
While I was stuck inside my scars, all my pain uncontrolled (yeah)
You kept tellin' me "I got you," I kept doubting every line (why?)
Now I realize too late you was really down to ride (ride)
I was livin' in the past, tryna heal from old wounds (old wounds)
Didn't know I'd lose my future while I sat inside that room (damn)
Now your side of the bed cold and the house too quiet (quiet)
And I'd give anything to hear you say you still beside me (woo)

---

(Chorus 2)
I know I fucked up, let your sunshine turn to rain (rain)
You kept carryin' my weight while I kept causin' pain (damn)
Told me you was gonna stay through the worst of my storms (you did)
But I kept breakin' your heart till your love was worn (facts)
Now every memory hit different when I'm all alone (alone)
Tryna call your phone but I know you probably movin' on (damn)
You wanted me forever, I was busy lookin' back (back)
Now my future slipped away and I can't get it back (gone)

---

(Verse 2)
You saw somethin' inside me I ain't see myself (nah)
Even when I hit the bottom, you was there for help (yeah)
Every time you cried, I blamed everybody but me (damn)
Now accountability the hardest thing to see (facts)
You deserved flowers, I gave excuses and pride (pride)
You deserved security, I gave emotional fights (damn)
You kept sayin' "Baby trust me, we gon' make it somehow" (somehow)
Wish I would've listened then instead of hearin' it now (woo)
Everybody else was temporary, you was permanent (facts)
Now the loneliness remind me what your worth really is (damn)
I spent so much time tryna survive my old pain (old pain)
Never realized I was pushin' away my soulmate (yeah)

---

(Chorus 3)
I know I fucked up, ain't no way around the truth (truth)
Lost the best thing in my life while I was fightin' through the blues (damn)
You gave me your loyalty, your trust, and your soul (all that)
And I paid you back with distance, disrespect, and being cold (cold)
Now the silence get loud every night after dark (woo)
Wish I would've protected what was precious from the start (facts)
You wanted all of me, I gave you pieces at best (damn)
Now I'm haunted by the thought I might've lost you for good (gone)

---

(Verse 3)
I remember every warning that you tried to give (I do)
Every chance that you offered, every bridge you built (facts)
You kept tellin' me the truth while I ignored the signs (why?)
Now I see everything crystal clear in hindsight (damn)
Wasn't other people, wasn't distance, wasn't fate (nah)
It was me bringin' yesterday into today (facts)
You was offerin' forever, I was livin' in survival (survival)
Didn't know the way I loved was slowly killin' our arrival (damn)
Now I'm starin' at the ceiling askin' God for one chance (one chance)
Just to tell you I was wrong and finally understand (please)
If forever ain't an option, hope you know one thing (yeah)
You were everything I needed, I was too blind to see (woo)

---

(Chorus 4)
I know I fucked up, turned your warmth into ice (ice)
Spent too much time hurtin' you instead of holdin' you tight (damn)
You told me a thousand times you'd ride till the wheels fell off (you did)
I was too busy with my past to see what it cost (facts)
Now my future slipped away somewhere down that road (gone)
And the weight of my mistakes get heavier to hold (heavy)
If it's not too late, girl, hear these words tonight (please)
I finally see your love was the greatest thing in my life (yeah...)

(Outro)
(Damn...)
Too busy lookin' behind me... (behind me)
Never saw my future walkin' away... (gone)
Yeah...
(Future slipped away...)
(Woo...)
(Facts...)
