My frustration lies in what we could’ve been
If you knew what we had, we’d have had it all back then
And for the longest time I thought we’d never end
Now we can’t go back, and it’s too hard to be friends
But you know, like I know, that you’re hard to love
And it’s not all your fault, the way we ended up
Were we really that bad?
Ever wish we could go back, the way that I have?
Oh, ex, oh, ex, oh, ex
Never wanted you to be my ex
Oh, ex, oh, ex, oh, ex
Never wanted you to be my ex
I still can’t find the words for what I’m going through
These memories of us seem to be all I have to lose
And will this piece of my heart always love you
Even though I let you go like you asked me to?
But you know, like I know, that you’re hard to love
And it’s not all my fault, the way we ended up
Were we really that bad, baby?
Ever wish we could go back, the way that I have?
Oh, ex, oh, ex, oh, ex
Never wanted you to be my ex
Oh, ex, oh, ex, oh, ex
Never wanted you to be my ex
Broken hearts don't bleed no, so you couldn't see how
You were hurting me, and I thought I could just let you leave
I honestly believed you would return to me
But oh, ex, oh, ex, oh, ex
Never wanted you to be my ex
Oh, ex, oh, ex, oh, ex
Never wanted you to be my ex
Oh, ex, oh, ex
Always wanted it to be you
But maybe we're happier apart
My Gift Interlude
> "I've come too far. I just want to truly be happy. That's all I want. Just being my best self, getting back into my light, back in my throe, feeling truly fulfilled with my gift. That's all I got to get my back off the corner is my gift. That's all I got. You didn't stop me from doing that, I stopped myself from doing that. That's just part of what I need to do to pick myself back up from this blow. And that was my mistake. I mean, I was so happy that I just didn't need it. And now I have no choice. My back's against the wall and I gotta use my gift to get out the corner. I'm in the ring like getting beat the fuck up. And now God can't feel sorry for me, I can't be depressed, cause he's blessed me with too much. I'm articulate, I'm educated, I'm intelligent, I'm street smart, I'm beautiful. I have two talents, three talents. Ain't nobody gon' feel sorry for me."
