Basic
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's only a reminder
It's somethin' that I'll put behind me
I thought you were the highest
But now that the room's gone silent, I
I see the way you're walkin'
'Cause everyday I sit back watchin'
You've got a lot of hype, but you remain the same
Basic
On some basic shit, didn't know what I was dealin' with
Basic
Burnin' every bridge, now that you're alone you wanna switch
Chasin'
'Til the day you quit
No more second chance from me because
You're too basic, you're too basic
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
It's only a reminder
You left another mess behind you
You wanna be the power
You love when the crowd gets louder
I, I know that you believe it
Until the day that they up and leave ya
You've got a lot of hype, but you remain the same
Basic
On some basic shit, didn't know what I was dealin' with
Basic
Burnin' every bridge, now that you're alone you wanna switch
Chasin'
'Til the day you quit
No more second chance from me because
You're too basic, you're too basic
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no (hah), you weren't the one that I thought you were
Basic
On some basic shit, didn't know what I was dealin' with
Basic
Burnin' every bridge, now that you're alone you wanna switch
Chasin'
'Til the day you quit
No more second chance from me because
You're a basic, you're a basic
You weren't the one that I thought you were
You weren't the one that I thought you were
You weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were
Ooh no, you weren't the one that I thought you were
You weren't the one that I thought you were
