For a Second

They think they put me back into my place

But everybody better start acting their age

'Cause I’ve been on the phone every day with another person

Talking bout my motives like I did this just to hurt someone

But I’ll take it

'Cause I know that you’re grieving

Just tell me all about myself till I start to believe it

I know everybody deals in different ways

Just keep on talking shit, and I’ll just keep on making waves

That’s how I cope

They think, I think I'm Jesus

But if I make a new religion I just wanna be the pope

I wanna be something that brings you hope

But first I gotta focus on myself for a second

For a second, I don’t think you know all the stories

That you’re stretching aren’t true

But if you do, shame on you

And you can tell everybody that this is your song

The world doesn’t give me what’s worth holding on to

Save all that for everybody else

Just tell me why I

Went quiet for a few days

'Cause they don’t see that it’s a lose-lose

But every time that my phone rings

I just brace myself for more bad news

And I'm not sure who hates me now

I know I shouldn’t be so worried about

People I don’t even trust

They don’t know the story

They don’t give a fuck

Just my luck, but I keep on pushing through

And I’ve been tryna act strong, but I don’t know for who

You take all my words and throw them back at me, it’s fine

But Jesus Christ let me focus on myself for a second

For a second, I don’t think you know all the stories

That you’re stretching aren’t true

But if you do, shame on you

And you can tell everybody that this is your song

The world doesn’t give me what’s worth holding on to

Tell yourself that everybody’s wrong

I’ll keep trying to sort through the wreckage of you

You might think I owe you something

But I owe you nothing

You owe me four hundred dollars

And a new space helmet

Did you think I’d forget it?

So, credit or debit?

No I'm kidding, don’t sweat it

Really, I can let it go

I’ve said all that I need to say to you and I can’t hold grudges

It’s just not who I am, but who are you?

I thought I knew

And I still wish you luck, but I wish you’d grow up

First, I gotta focus on myself for a second

For a second

I don’t think you know all the stories

That you’re stretching aren’t true

But if you do, shame on you

And you can tell everybody that this is your song

The world doesn’t give me what’s worth holding on to

I let go of everybody else

Tell me why it took so long to let go of

You can tell everybody that this is your song

The world doesn’t give me what’s worth holding on to

I let go of everybody else

Tell me why it took so long to let go of you
