Song Lyrics

I've been smokin' Purple Haze
Ooh, to forget about you
I've been smokin' Purple Haze
Ooh, to forget about you

And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, I try (ohh)
But I'm havin' the worst luck on Tinder, ooh
Why'd you have to be a big pretender
I try, and I try, and I try, I try, I try (ohh)
To give you something good, 'cause I know you would
Give it to me, too

I've been smokin' Purple Haze
Ooh, to forget about you
I've been smokin' Purple Haze
Ooh, to forget about you

But you lie, and you lie, and you lie, and you lie, you lie (ohh)
It's the forty-seventh time that I've changed my number
Should call you Mannie Fresh 'cause you's the number one stunta
You lie, and you lie, and you lie, and you lie, you lie (ohh)
I gave you something good, 'cause I know you would
Give it to me, too

Don't date these niggas 'til you're forty-three
A heartbreak gonna creep on after me

I try to cover up what I feel inside
You hurt me so deep and

You know, life is too short to be blockin' your blessings like that
To be blockin' potential blessings, like
Yeah, you may never get married again, you may never find the love of your life again, but
Hey, that's life
And please don't be in a situation
Where that person's tearing you down mentally, emotionally, physically
We've heard it a million times, I think emotional abuse
Is way worse than physical, sometimes
'Cause that just fucks up your whole mind
You could develop whole disorders like that
Whole disorders
You guys tell me why this old nigga from my past hit me up, talkin' bout somethin'
"Is your name Courtney? Did you go to Poplar Tree
In the first, second, and third grade? And you had like a light skin sister?
And you, um, you had a crush on me?"
I was like
"Yeah, that sounds like me"
And my thing is, like, nigga, like, you feelin' yourself
You're feelin' yourself a little too hard, talkin' 'bout, "You had a crush on me"
Nigga, yes, at like, fucking seven
Relax, relax
