Woodah - Footwork in A Forest Fire Lyrics

Right now I'm swipin' through these dating apps, lookin' for the old you
I hope that other nigga try to hold you down like he's supposed to
I never needed love, I needed loyalty, I told you
You was sayin' that's impossible, but how, girl, I showed you

I kept it hunnid from the jump in hopes you do the same
Don't know who to blame, could be your mama or the trauma as your source of shame
I tried to show you change, I tried to gas your flame
Thought I could change your name, thought I could heal your pain

But the more I poured, the emptier I was, slowly formed a grudge
Over time, this shit ain't feel like love
I tried to fix what you had broken, guess I turned into a crutch
I gave everything I had, I can see it won't enough

I'm only one man, tryna be your therapist and lover
Your daddy and your mother, your sister and your brother
I was tryna share my family, cause you never had no other
Girl, I bought this f*ckin' bed and all I asked was bring the covers

How you askin' what I brought to the table, I bought the table
Foundation built from trauma bonds sadly was never stable
I was callin' you my twin, but we fought more than Cade and Abel
Such a narcissist, you call it self-love, but that shit betrayal

Makin' up more shit than facials, our story, turned out a fable
What it's worth, depreciated, my pride doin' reappraisals
Now I'm workin' on my roster like Bob was
Got dread on my head over one love, but time heals all and our times up

Right now I'm swipin' through these dating apps lookin' for the old you
I'm lookin' for the old you
I hope that other nigga try to hold you down like he's supposed to
Like he's supposed to, baby, like he's supposed to

I never needed love, I needed loyalty, I told you
You was sayin' that's impossible, but how, girl, I told you
Right now I'm swipin' through these dating apps lookin' for the old you
I'm lookin' for the old you

I hope that other nigga try to hold you down like he's supposed to
Like he's supposed to, baby, like he's supposed to
I never needed love, I needed loyalty, I told you
I told you, I told you, girl, I told you

You was sayin' that's impossible, but how, girl, I told you
I'm just lookin' for the old you
My pride aside, I know I did my dirt
Was tryna make up for that shit for years, I guess I made it worse

Sometimes I feel I'm cursed, I'm droppin' tears meanwhile I write this verse
No act, it's not rehearsed, I'm back in church, been tryna dodge a hearse
And tryna find myself, this shit an endless search
On Monday, I'll be back at work, smilin, they don't know I'm hurt

Cause pain don't pay these f*ckin' bills
It's summertime, I'm feelin' chills like how my nightmares end up real
Voices in my head say, watch that bitch, but I won't try to hear
Better on my own, but I still want you here, that shit is crazy

How the f*ck you f*ckin' on these niggas while you want my baby
How the f*ck I let you dim my light when you was movin' shady
How you playin' victim to my mom? I'm tryna keep shit calm
I ain't never beat your ass, that ain't what the f*ck I'm on

I was tryna make shit right while you was out here movin' wrong
Lyin' on my name must be your favorite song, but I can't sing along
I tried to show you love, but you ain't see it, now I'm gone
I tried to show you love, but you ain't see it, now I'm movin' on
