Maybe

[Verse 1]

Face it, they be tellin' you to fake it

It's a tragedy that someday the world will end

We can't always pretend 'bout

What it is and what it ain't

'Cause one of these days, they'll take it away

And we'll never get to see each other's faces

Just say it, I know you're tired of fakin'

'Cause you've been livin' on the stage

And you know what it's like in cages

[Chorus]

Maybe we should escape

Maybe I should've stayed

Maybe we should've ran away

Maybe I should've prayed

Maybe we should've danced together all night

Twenty-first birthday

Maybe you were afraid

Maybe I wasn't brave

Maybe we needed space

[Verse 2]

You know what it was

And you know what it should've been

Don't let your niggas talk you up

Liked you better for what you could've been

Now it's like I don't even know you, you just ain't as real

You've been losin' focus, stop chasin' sex appeal

And I know you know I held my end of the deal

All for you to switch up, tear his ass out the picture frame

Funny what niggas do for a little fame

Funny what bitches do for a little change

And you always fell for a big booty and curls

Laid up in LA next to some city girls

Next thing I know, she'll have a Birkin and a bussie

And I'm callin' you and your niggas disgustin'

'Cause knowin' you, you put your homie on with her cousin

I'm from the East, you know I'm knuckin' if she buckin'

[Chorus]

Maybe we should escape

Maybe I should've stayed

Maybe we should've ran away

Maybe I should've prayed

Maybe we should've danced together all night

Twenty-first birthday

Maybe you were afraid

Maybe I wasn't brave

Maybe we needed space
