free fall

Free Fall

Feat. J. Cole

I’m no angel
I had fallen too deep
And you watched me
Then you fell in with me
I felt beautiful
You were beautiful too
Like an angel

Hopeless in the moment
I free fall straight into you
I don’t know if I could fight
What you do in my mind
More and more, I collide
With you

It’s obvious you don’t know what you’re doing
With me
How you do me wrong then call my name? My name
Too late for you, babe
I don’t think I can let you in
I’m not open, not anymore

I can tell we don’t belong
I would rather be alone
I had to run
I had enough
Ugh
I was the one
Who had to run
I had enough

Toxic, who would have thought what’s coming was a plot twist?
Soon as you let me in, you start hunting for the locksmith
Now the key I once had to your heart does not fit
I got three choices, batter your door or lock-pick
Or walk away confused at your logic
Back in my crib, cleaning your clothes and your shoes out the closet
Thinking to myself, “We supposed to be in pools by the tropics
Soaking up the views but you choose to blow it up”
Know you ain’t used to going dutch, so you refuse to see the truth
About who was out of pocket, it’s all on me, huh?
Fuck it, take my credit card, let’s ball out seaside
Devotion like the ocean, how it start out knee-high
And gets deeper and deeper till we are
Drowning in each others arms but the water’s calm
How did we forget the calm was before the storm ’cause you said?

It’s obvious you don’t know what you’re doing
With me
How you do me wrong then call my name? My name
Too late for you, babe
I don’t think I can let you in
I’m not open, not anymore

I can tell we don’t belong
I would rather be alone
I had to run
I had enough
Ugh
I was the one
Who had to run
I had enough
