Back of the Line Lyrics

So you gave me an invite, so I decide to come inside

It was a long ride, eventually you left me behind

It was not right and I was blind

Should've listened to all my friends advice

Nah, what friend, my bad I meant my mind

Told myself not to tie that tie

Now I'm caught in a knot surprised

Still got time to rise, still got time to shine

And when I do you gon' come back, but you at the back of the line

Everything I do there is a purpose

I can tell when something is and isn't working

I can tell when somebody's disturbed or hurtin'

I can make some mistakes, but still put in service

Don't know who told you I was perfect, I only try to own it

When I don't I just ignore it

By the end I end up scoring

Then y'all need some more, how much fakin' can I really afford (yeah, yeah, oh)

Know I don't ever give into the lure unless it try to deploy to my door (aye, lets go)

Know this song was posed to be bout' a girl, but my mind offer her I'm taking it swell

I show my feelin's out like show like show n' tell

And I do it well

Yeah and then I remember (yeah)

Get in my bag of feels, no zip-loc (yeah)

Remember when we was talkin' about forever (yeah)

But that's a long time judgin' by the clock (yeah)

And at this point I don't even know how I feel so I can't show you (yeah, aye aye)

Payed attention to the old me so much, but I ain't do the same for you

So you gave me an invite, so I decide to come inside

It was a long ride, eventually you left me behind

It was not right and I was blind

Should've listened to all my friends advice

Nah, what friend, my bad I meant my mind

Told myself not to tie that tie

Now I'm caught in a knot surprised

Still got time to rise, still got time to shine

And when I do you gon' come back, but you at the back of the line

I'm thinkin' way too much

Hate the fact I miss your love

You helped my strength and my confidence now it feels like I walk with a crutch

Even though I said I hate it, I hope the facts true for you too (aye)

Even though I was thinkin' so much, I'm really such a fool (aye)

If I was lyin' about it does that make me selfish (selfish)

Even though the lyin' would never help it (help it)

The only that really held it back was you

You helped me be myself

Now I'm pourin' out, pourin' out just like I was a cloud (oh, uh-huh)

And the music you hear it aloud, hope it's not talked around

Honestly I don't care about that, I only just care about you

I'm tryna do what we used to do, make it usual

Remember those days you were the thing that could keep my sane

When I looked at you

Now it's like my eyes start to rain

I can show you proof

(No-no, oh-no)

(oh-no, no no)

So you gave me an invite, so I decide to come inside

It was a long ride, eventually you left me behind

It was not right and I was blind

Should've listened to all my friends advice

Nah, what friend, my bad I meant my mind

Told myself not to tie that tie

Now I'm caught in a knot surprised

Still got time to rise, still got time to shine

And when I do you gon' come back, but you at the back of the line
