lyrics

[Chorus]
Things don't always work out the way you want it to/
Things don't always work out the way we want it to/
Things don't always work out the way you want it to/
Things don't always work out the way we want it to/

[Verse 1]
I hate to admit it but I still didn't/
Delete our texts in my phone, it's still in it/
Coming to think of it, it's you that made this music happen/
You were my biggest fan, made me feel like the coolest rapper/
Rappin' to my songs and even made a song together/
The first time I ever felt like we belonged together/
The first time I ever showed my insecurities/
When nobody listened you always had an ear for me/
Ever since you, it's been hard to be myself again/
Like I can't find something real but tell myself I can/
Tryna keep the faith, something that I lost in us/
All because I wanted something else that took me off the bus/
We were both riding in, but you held on to me, palms sweaty/
Even though, we were runnin' on empty, Unsteady/
Love and I'm the one who let it die/
And I didn't see it coming prosthetic eye/
But I'm gettin by cause

[Chorus]
Things don't always work out the way you want it to/
Things don't always work out the way we want it to/
Things don't always work out the way you want it to/
Things don't always work out the way we want it to/

[Verse 2]
I have an issue with myself, it's hard for me to open up/
Hesitant on being me, when I start to sober up/
And I found myself in this mess that I put me in/
Everytime I look me in my eyes in the mirror/
I can see thru all the lies, it's a prison that I took me in/
Don't know where I should begin to change/
Wear my hoodie in the rain/
They're lookin' like "Could he be insane?"/
Wouldn't leave a stain, that's what I promised/
I let myself down being dishonest/
This cuts deep I let it bleed on this sonnet/
All I'm dealin' with are fleas on the market/
I brush 'em off cause, they wanna reach in your wallet/
Starting to wear me out, I think I need me a stylist/
Should be gettin' a cleanse, releasing all of my toxins/
Something like Eminem, I'm cleanin' out my closet/
That's how it is, that's the way it goes/
Making mistakes is the only way to grow/
It's the only way to know that

[Chorus]
Things don't always work out the way you want it to/
Things don't always work out the way we want it to/
Things don't always work out the way you want it to/
Things don't always work out the way we want it to/
