Locomotive Lyrics

I been tryna keep my head straight

Holding on is something that I can't do

Ya damn straight

I been locomotive

This ain't brand new

Love it til I hate it

Then I'm off it

Like it's taboo

You might love me now

But that's a bad move

I been tryna keep my head straight

Holding on is something that I can't do

Ya damn straight

I been locomotive

This ain't brand new

Love it til I hate it

Then I'm off it

Like it's taboo

You might love me now

But that's a bad move

Loving me is like

Building a puzzle with pieces missing

I told you my shit hit different

You heard me but you ain't listen

Unfortunately for me

I'm a product of good intentions

And bad decisions

The two don't really mix

But I don't listen either

Get ya shit together

You better

My conscience louder now

That writers block done blocking my blessings

I'm tryna block out all the noise

But the silence ain't better

This shit is deafening

I'm tryna keep the peace

But I know that love is a battlefield

Tryna love myself is a battle that only I could feel

I been nursing wounds on my own

Music the medicine

I be doing drugs just to cope

With all the extra shit

You don't really know but you noticing

I been off

Hardly been writing verses

More focused on righting wrongs

And all these songs that come about

Be reminding me that I'm lost

You keep finding me like I'm yours

Demons fighting to throw me off

And I'm fighting back more than tears

It's so tiring being strong

I met my shadow self today

I'm surprised that we get along

She say we deserve better

I'm sad that she wasn't wrong

Because I been contemplating my purpose

Clearly I'm off base

Supposed to be a rapper

But find myself fixing heartbreaks

Instead

I been tryna keep my head straight

Holding on is something that I can't do

Ya damn straight

I been locomotive

This ain't brand new

Love it til I hate it

Then I'm off it

Like it's taboo

You might love me now

But that's a bad move
