I Swear ft. Jade Winter White (prod. Day One)

from Lost Thoughts by The Thought

lyrics

I don't mean to smother, just applying my two cents
To my brothers and my sisters, aligning lines
Instead of splitting bread
Instead of splitting bread (Where the wine at?)
Toasting up another from this past week, filled with dread
Monday creeping on me, back again, a nine to five
Until that Friday hit
'Til that Friday hit
Cycle might keep repeating 'til I've grown in to my death
Hoping not to displease the people that think highly
When I'm not feeling my best
I'm not feeling my best (No!)

Possibly lies to a couple people in the process
Possibly left my guard up, didn't mean to flaunt it
I swear
I swear, I swear, I swear
Possibly lies to a couple people in the process
Possibly left my guard up, didn't mean to flaunt it
I swear
I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear
Ooooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh I swear
'Til I run it, run it, run it, run it
Run it back again

Run it, run it back again
Don't think you telling the truth, under that laughter, canned
Lose trust if you abused, but don't just ruse a man
Whose lust has got you confused? Huh?
Can't keep track of your excuses! Why don't you install a loser ban?
You sus, you just see through my elusive stance
Ooh, fuck, never wanted you to move the veil
'Cause the truth of us is the dynamic very frail
You got to get it through to me, that I caused the dystrophy
'Cause from where my feet are planted, it's looking differently
So tell me, what's it gonna be? Could you solve the mystery?
Of why you think I'm shifty and disregard monogamy?
'Cause I've been thinking 'bout you like every minute of the week
Since the day that we first met and freestyled on a beat
You're the one I wanna keep, so why you making this so hard?
Why you sitting there and bragging that you always on your guard?
The only muse amused except for you has been the art
From the start, so why you tryna pull apart?

Girl, I swear
That I've been true to you!
Girl, I swear
For me, it's only you!
Girl, I swear…
