Potent Lyrics

All these thoughts got me in a chokehold

All this pain and it just won't let go

Can't let my emotions, gain control

When I say I'm broken, it just echoes

(But I'm really broken)

I don't know why love gotta be so potent

Rapping bout my pain, getting me some motion

But I still got thoughts that just cause commotion

So I just leave em unspoken

Now I'm in a car and I'm by myself

Listening to music, hoping that it helps

Knowing no one really cares about me

So I don't tell people how I feel

I don't know why they say love is so free

Cause it costs all of my heart and my peace

Now I'm in bed with my thoughts and my sheets

This shit gon' have me fucked up for a couple weeks

Now there's no love for me, I know that it's gone

And why'd you leave when you were what I wanted

Cause next to me is where you belong

At least that's what I thought, but I guess that I was wrong

I know that we wouldn't work sometimes

But you were still running through my mind

I just wish that I stopped you from leaving

Now it's me and my pain and we grieving

Now our love I wanna sing about it

Hope you sitting in your bed and you think about it

Saying that you can't move on and go live without it

But I'm knowing how you are so I highly doubt it

Now I got me all this pain, ain't no way around it

Now I'm out here on my own, don't like how it sounded

I remember when I faked on my friends cause I wanted to hold you

Now they in my ear and they telling me I told you so

Now I'm in the car and I'm by myself

Listening to music hoping that it helps

Knowing no one really cares about me

So I don't tell people how I feel

I don't know why they say love is so free

Cause it costs all of my heart and my peace

Now I'm in bed with my thoughts and my sheets

This shit gon' have me fucked up for a couple weeks

Love is hard but I went and I found out the hard way

Let go of my hand and we part ways

You not here but you out going to all of the parties

And I'm stuck in my room with a heartbreak

And you just showed that you really wasn't in it

I should've known but you really were my interest

And you just left me so cold in an instant

And something told me don't go I went against it

Now there's no love for me, I know I that it's gone

And why'd you leave when you were what I wanted

Cause next to me is where you belong

At least that's what I thought but I guess that I was wrong

I know that we wouldn't work sometimes

But you were still running through my mind

I just wish that I'd stopped you from leaving

Now it's me and my pain and we grieving
