Ooh, ooh
I know how it feels to be left out (left out), yeah
I know how it feels to be stressed out (stressed out), yeah
Smoke away the pain, get the stress out (stress out)
Yeah, she took my heart, it's out my chest now (chest now), yeah
Mm, told her that I'll never get my trust up (trust up)
I been in my feelings, screaming, "Fuck love" (fuck love)
She hit up my phone, I said, "So long" (so long)
I take back that moment, but now I'm alone, yeah
And she hit my phone, yeah, put it on do not disturb, yeah
All I wanted was a little love (a little love)
And all I wanted was a little trust (a little trust)
I know how it feels to be left out (left out), yeah
I know how it feels to be stressed out (stressed out), yeah
Smoke away the pain, get the stress out (stress out)
Yeah, she took my heart, it's out my chest now (chest now), yeah
The sorrow and the pain, it got me fucked up (fucked up)
Mm, told her that I'll never get my trust up (trust up)
I been in my feelings, screaming, "Fuck love" (fuck love)
She hit up my phone, I said, "So long" (so long)
Ooh, your love is my medicine
And I'm so sick without it
And I go insane when I'm off the meds
'Cause I'm in hell without it
Do you feel me?
Do you feel my pain?
I want relief
She's my hell to me
I know how it feels to be left out (left out), yeah
I know how it feels to be stressed out (stressed out), yeah
Smoke away the pain, get the stress out (stress out)
Yeah, she took my heart, it's out my chest now (chest now), yeah
The sorrow and the pain, it got me fucked up (fucked up)
Mm, told her that I'll never get my trust up (trust up)
I been in my feelings, screaming, "Fuck love" (fuck love)
She hit up my phone, I said, "So long" (so long)
