Ace Lib - Freckles Interlude (feat. Robin G) Lyrics

Being on the opposite end of toxicity can be unfamiliar to me
And if I trust you with the details of my past heartache
Don't take that lightly, I like me
Learning to love me again, trust me again
Bonded by trauma ain't the love story I wanna write or star in
So I just need to take a few steps back before we got too far in
Patience is a love language
I don't wanna re-learn love in anguish
So let's take these lessons as we learn them
No love lost
I just don't wanna cost neither one of us more than we're ready to spend
I just wanna spend time, be the reason that you smile again
But all we talk about is what happened with other men
Please stop comparing me, how is that fair to me
Deep down you know it's a disparity
I know all your secrets, what your fears, your beliefs is
Can't another niggas connection even compete with
You know how much it hurts for me to watch you go through it
Then again I had you first and I cold blew it
I think you got feelings for me, you just won't express em
Got me over here just guessing
I'm tryna be a blessing, you tryna treat me like I'm the enemy
Cause I push you to be better, but now I'm like your energy
What you think was gonna happen once we started back at it
I accepted you with all the baggage
Tryna hide me from a nigga, you saying you ain't with
Everybody telling me, "bro that sound like some f*ck shit"
"She ain't to be trusted"
"Dawg don't even play yourself"
I be thinking I know but it's something that I just can't help
All your friends know that you belong with me
I even got your friend on this song with me
I miss all the facetimes, I know that healing takes time
I also know you the one I wanna make mine
A love unrequited, pain in my eyes I can't hide it
For all we been through I feel slighted
Or maybe feel entitled
Either way I got nothing left
I mean you gave me your body but your heart belong to someone else
Wish I was my former self so I could get past it and move on
But these feelings I got man they too strong
I could never hate you, but I don't know if I could date you
It's the little things that Ace do that make you seem ungrateful
I was there every time that your heart break with Scotch tape
And now we ain't got nothing left to say?
So this is how we end it?
Not even working on our friendship?
I don't got resentment I just wanna give you space
Hope you find happiness even if it's not with Ace
Maybe this is karma atoning for my mistakes
Eating at my conscience, did I even have what it takes?
You just gonna let me walk away? Being prideful
Look into the mirror that's the only one you lied to
I'm who you confided to
The one that's gonna ride for you
Can't get you off my mind even though I've tried to
Look into the skies too, night time reflections
Then I see the stars and they remind me or your freckles
Damn
