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 wavesThat’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 secondFor a second, I don’t think you know all the stories
That you’re stretching aren’t true
But if you do, shame on youAnd 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 IWent 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 aboutPeople 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 secondFor a second, I don’t think you know all the stories
That you’re stretching aren’t true
But if you do, shame on youAnd 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 youYou might think I owe you something
But I owe you nothing
You owe me four hundred dollars
And a new space helmetDid you think I’d forget it?
So, credit or debit?
No I'm kidding, don’t sweat it
Really, I can let it goI’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 upFirst, 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 youAnd 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 ofYou 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
