Lately Ive been thinkin’
Was it even worth it
All those times I hurt you
Now you really hurtin’
Something wasn’t workin’
Girl I know but still I let you in
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
It’s gettin’ too late
I don’t wanna leave yeah
I’m beggin’ to stay
You say where’s the old you
That ain’t even me
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
It’s gettin’ too late
Lately I been thinkin’
Was it even worth it
Tryna find my purpose
Cause you know I been searchin’
Baby girl i’m well aware I know I don’t deserve it
Don’t hesitate you just gotta say the words ooh
Layin’ you down like we been here before
Girl you know this ain’t my first rodeo
You talking to me like it’s gettin’ to deep
But you dreamin’ of me when I put you to sleep
Lately Ive been thinkin’
Was it even worth it
All those times I hurt you
Now you really hurtin’
Ever since I met you
Something wasn’t workin’
Girl I know but still I let you in
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
It’s gettin’ too late
I don’t wanna leave yeah
I’m beggin’ to stay
You say where’s the old you
That ain’t even me
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
It’s gettin’ too late
I pay no attention ‘less I get the change
I see your intentions to make it okay
You calling me up when you want me to play
But you tired of me so you put me away, ayy
Lately Ive been thinkin’
Was it even worth it
All those times I hurt you
Now you really hurtin’
Ever since I met you
Something wasn’t workin’
Girl I know but still I let you in
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
It’s gettin’ too late
I don’t wanna leave yeah
I’m beggin’ to stay
You say where’s the old you
That ain’t even me
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
It’s gettin’ too late

I perceive that you aim to rectify the situation
You calling me up when you want me to play
You contact me only when you desire my involvement
But you tired of me so you put me away, ayy
You are fed up with me and thus you cast me aside
It’s gettin’ too late
The situation is becoming irreparable
I don’t wanna leave yeah
I do not wish to separate from you
I’m beggin’ to stay
I am imploring you to let me remain
You say where’s the old you
You question the whereabouts of my previous self
That ain’t even me
I have changed and my current self is not the same as before
And now you don’t wanna sleep yeah
Currently, you refuse to sleep
It’s gettin’ too late
The situation has progressed too far and cannot be reversed
