Distance
B.O.A. Lyrics

I woke up one morn’
I started my day like any other day

Unsuspecting of a message
Without expecting to receive any notifications

From you on my phone
But then I got a text from you

Saying you just need some space
Informing me that you want some time apart

From me to be alone
To be by yourself and not in a relationship at this time

Who’s that other nigga
Asking you who is the other guy you are seeing

I know you’re fucking with em
Accusing you of having a sexual relationship with that person

Cause ain’t no way in hell
Because I cannot believe

You wanted space after tonight
That you suddenly needed space from me after we were intimate

I know sometimes
I understand that

You get emotional when we fight
You tend to become upset when we argue

But that don’t really give you
But that doesn't justify

A reason to be right
Your decision to break up with me

Cause you acted off of anger
Because you let your emotions control your actions

And it ended up in spite
And it resulted in resentment towards me

And that’s so crazy
And it's unbelievable

I thought you was my baby
I thought you were my significant other

But you acting shady
But now you're being suspicious

And I don’t play no games
And I am a straightforward person

So why you tryna play me
So why are you trying to deceive me

Don’t give me that shit
Don't lie to me

I heard enough of that shit
I already heard too many lies from you

Lights, camera, action
Let's get this conversation started

If you got a problem
If you have an issue

Then you need to gone tell me
Then you need to tell me what it is

Right now, uh uh
Immediately, no delays

And if you got an secret
And if you have any secrets

Gone and tell me
You should reveal them to me

I ain’t worried bout how, uh uh
I don't care how bad it might sound, just tell me

I know the truth hurts
I understand that the truth is painful

Being given but I need it
But I need to hear it, regardless

So I can get some closure
So I can get some resolution

You won’t get any exposure
You won't be publicly shamed

And I can let it go
And I can move on from this relationship

But in case you didn’t know that
In case you weren't aware of this fact

I don’t need you
I don't require your presence in my life

I don’t mean to
I don't intend to be mean

Sounds so fucking hurtful baby
But it might sound really painful, my love

But you gotta go cause
But you have to leave

I don’t need you
I don't depend on you

I can see thru
I can see past

All the things you
All the words you say to me

Try to feed to
Try to convince me of

Me like seafood
Like they are tasty delicacies

That’s what she do
That's what people like you do

I don’t wanna speak to you
I don't want to talk to you

You can’t give me a reason to
You can't provide me with any justification

Why you wanna hide and seek
Why are you avoiding me and the issues we have

Girl we ain’t playing peek a boo
This situation is not a game of hide-and-seek

Is it because
Could it be that

You can’t handle the distance
You are unable to cope with our physical separation

Distance
The physical space between us

Or is it because
Or maybe it is because

You just really miss this
You are feeling deeply nostalgic about our relationship

I don’t need you
I do not require your companionship
