Ur Best Friend
Kiana Ledé Kehlani Lyrics

We ain't felt like us in a minute
Our connection has been lost for some time now.

Whole damn time I knew I shouldn't have did it
I always knew that getting involved with someone else was a mistake.

Might've got too excited, I'll admit it
I may have let my impulses get the best of me.

Almost called your name when he was in it
I was thinking of you even when I was with someone else.

Ooh
Intrigued by the thought of being with you.

It's wrong, but you make me feel right
Being with you feels right even though it's not.

Textin' your phone while right beside him
I can't help but contact you even when I'm with someone else.

Wish it was anyone besides him
I regret choosing to be with this person instead of you.

I was with my man last night
I was spending time with the person I am currently dating.

And I just realized what I felt that night wasn't wrong
I have come to the conclusion that my feelings for you are not wrong.

Thought about you in the whole car ride, like
I couldn't stop thinking about you even during my entire ride in the car.

I hate that you ain't your best friend
I wish you were not just someone I am romantically interested in, but also my best friend.

Nah-nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah
Repeating the phrase for emphasis.

Hate he had the courage to step up and pull up 6-speed, like
I am upset that the person I am with has the ability to impress me with material possessions.

Put in so much work (work), just to make it worth (worth)
He has put in a lot of effort to make our relationship meaningful.

And he's almost perfect and that why it hurts
The person I am dating is almost exactly what I want in a partner, but still not you.

And he calls me family, that's what make it worse
He refers to me as part of his family, which makes ending our relationship difficult.

You was with my man last night (with my man)
You were spending time with the person that I am currently dating.

And you just realized what you felt that night wasn't wrong (what I felt that night)
You have also come to the conclusion that your feelings for me are not wrong.

Thought about me on your whole car ride, like
You couldn't help but think of me during your entire ride in the car.

Sayin' I hate that you ain't your best friend
You also wish that we were not just romantically interested in each other, but also best friends.

Is that right? Hmm
A skeptical response to the situation.

Damn, I'm just mad that he came up to me and talk to me tough
I am frustrated that the person I am dating has confronted me in an aggressive manner.

This ain't monopoly, I didn't think you'd play for this long
I didn't expect you to pursue me for such a long time.

And it's so sad that he treat me like royalty and for what?
The person I am dating treats me very well, but I am still not satisfied.

I know that honestly your loyalty is only to us
I understand that our connection is strong and that you are loyal to me.

I always knew from the beginnin'
I have known since the start of our relationship.

Seems like things are better when forbidden
It feels like our connection is stronger because it is prohibited.

I hate that you ain't your best friend
Once again expressing the desire to also be friends with the person being romantically pursued.

Nah-nah-nah-nah, no, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Continuing the repeated phrase.

I hate that you ain't your-
Trailing off before finishing the sentence.
