Paces

Girl I know we've been talking low key

And I know you've been waiting on me

Like am I ever gon' give myself to someone else?

Like am I ready?

That's my bad for being that way

But I like to take time and wait

Still trying to figure out what you're about

And if we're on the same page

Are you willing to ride, babe?

When you know that I'm on the grind?

Cause I know that you hate it

When I hit you with that one-line reply

Girl, I got no time for games

And I ain't the type to do brеaks

But you should know I hear ya

She said, what are you waiting for?

Is thеre something I'm doing wrong?

Are you scared to commit?

Don't lie, are you even looking for someone?

You know I want ya

And I know you want me too

Not tryna ignore ya

I'm just playing it cool

Look, pardon this caution

Heart's heartened and heavily guarded

Our time is heavenly I need to stroll the garden

And catch every glimmer is all

If I wasn't with it, I would not be involved

Look, before you know a couple inside jokes

And my folks and every flaw by its name

I need to know the brush strokes

And if the lusters match the claims

And I trust that you must do the same

I spent years stirring paint and praying colors change

Give me every shade of lovely

I would never give you pain

I've been gigging lately

Lost inside all kinds of places

A lot of forced smiles and blurry faces

With you the only time I don't feel anxious

I know how quickly time moves

And I do have love for you

If you're not ready to lose it all

If it's not all you hoped for, should you?

If it never was, would you shrug like it was nothing to you?

I don't need a relationship to check the box or fill the spaces

So if that's okay, let's go the paces

What are you waiting for?

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Are you scared to commit?

Don't lie, are you even looking for someone?

You know I want ya

And I know you want me too

Not tryna ignore ya

I'm just playing it cool

She said, what are you waiting for?

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Are you scared to commit?

Don't lie, are you even looking for someone?

You know I want ya

And I know you want me too

Not tryna ignore ya

I'm just playing it cool
