Warsame - Friends Lyrics

I need meaning
I need peace
I need love
Wanted the truth and never found where it was
I'm on the stoop
I can no longer just stay inside
Kept it loose
I stayed true for every ride
Lotta wants and needs but not enough time
It took a lot from me
And I still ain't compromise
Don't let em minimize
Your accomplishments
Came a long way
It's only right that we acknowledge it
Never was affectionate
Really wasn't the opposite
Needa take a shot
If you gone really gain the confidence
If only I knew back then
Could've been way more than friends
You walked out my life but I ain't stressing
Live solely in the present so appreciate my presence
I Was lost during my adolescence
Till every loss turned to lesson
Came a grips to the fact this ain't destined
This ain't in the plan
Not a fan of where it went
It's hard understand
So rarely I get to vent
Instead of asking me
You assuming whats my intent
I fell in love with you without knowing what it meant
Never was affectionate
Really wasn't the opposite
Needa take the shot
If you gone really gain the confidence
If only I knew back then
Could've been way more than friends
Laces up my kicks
I slide through the abyss
Use to prayed it'll be this
Use to be fix to the problem
Regardless of the circumstance
You left it hit hard
And there went the romance
And there went the love
Can't go back to program
Thought it won't cost much
Until I scrambled like Cunningham
Can't really see what you see in that other man
Oh man
Never was affectionate
Really wasn't the opposite
Needa take a shot
If you gone really gain the confidence
If only I knew back then
Could've been way more than friends
