[00:11.460]Yo... they say love make you do crazy things.
[00:17.100]But sometimes... the craziest thing isforgettin' who you are.
[00:22.500]Check the meter. Is it balanced?
[00:26.670]Let's see...
[00:26.850]Sun is down,I'm zoning out,stressin''bout the paper flow
[00:29.880]I be out here, no cap, tryna make the whole world know
[00:32.550]ThatI'm the one, thatI'm the king, thatI'm the only one
[00:35.550]But when I crash, when I break, yeah, the damageain't been done?
[00:38.550]Nah, it done.
[00:39.360]See, I got this habit, put my needs up on a throne
[00:42.330]And her feelings? They just static on the telephone.
[00:44.760]I look at her, I see a" plus one" to my status,that's the truth
[00:48.180]Ain'tseein' the person, nah,I'm blinded by the youth.
[00:50.970]I'mtakin' her time,takin' her shine,takin' her peace of mind
[00:53.640]Leavin' her heart in a bind.
[00:55.230]I thought love was a trophy,somethin' you could hold
[00:58.320]A prize for the winner,somethin' bought and sold.
[01:00.960]So I spent, and I spent, thought the cash would fill the void
[01:04.050]But the emptier I got, the more noise I destroyed.
[01:07.350]I was blind,couldn't see how the balance tipped
[01:10.380]With every little piece of her soul that Iipped.
[01:13.260]Loveain't a war where you gotta claim the victory.
[01:16.380]Itain't a bank where you deposit your misery.
[01:19.320]It's a mirror, yeah,it's a mirror,showin' what you lack
[01:22.500]Or a mirrorshowin' love you never had.
[01:25.320]When the scale is broken, and the weight is all on one side
[01:28.410]You gotta look deep, gotta look deep inside.
[01:31.110]To find that value, that worththat's true
[01:34.110]'Cause without it, baby, what you got?Nothin' new.
[01:37.140]Just a cycle, just a loop, just a losing game
[01:41.550]Until you learn to carry your own flame.
[01:47.970]Okay, look. I beensittin' in the dark,watchin' shadows on the wall
[01:51.840]Givin' him my everything,watchin' my own value fall.
[01:54.870]I thought my love was enough, thought my tears would water the seed
[01:57.960]But all I grew was a garden full of pain and need.
[02:00.780]I bent, I broke, I stretched myself so thin
[02:03.600]Tryna fit the mold he carved, tryna let his light back in.
[02:06.660]I was his therapist, his mother, his best friend, his maid
[02:09.870]But never his equal, never the price that was paid.
[02:12.570]I looked at him, I saw a god, I saw a savior, I saw the sky
[02:15.750]And I was just the dirt beneath,waitin' for the rain to fall from high.
[02:19.170]I gave my power away, yeah, I handed him the keys
[02:22.080]To a kingdom that was mine, planted on my own knees.
[02:24.930]I lost myself in his reflection, thoughtthat's where I belonged
[02:27.810]Ain't realized I was the main character in this song.
[02:30.780]I was strong, but I played the weak
[02:32.850]For a love thatwasn't love, just a temporary fix I seek.
[02:36.330]I looked for my worth in his eyes, in his touch, in his approval
[02:39.000]But the well ran dry, and the story got cruel.
[02:41.850]I was a giver, yeah, I was a giver, but the taker never stops
[02:45.510]Until you hit the bottom, until you hit the rocks.
[02:47.820]Loveain't a war where you gotta claim the victory.
[02:50.580]Itain't a bank where you deposit your misery.
[02:53.550]It's a mirror, yeah,it's a mirror,showin' what you lack
[02:56.730]Or a mirrorshowin' love you never had.
[02:59.550]When the scale is broken, and the weight is all on one side
[03:02.700]You gotta look deep, gotta look deep inside.
[03:05.340]To find that value, that worththat's true
[03:08.370]'Cause without it, baby, what you got?Nothin' new.
[03:11.250]Just a cycle, just a loop, just a losing game
[03:15.780]Until you learn to carry your own flame.
[03:23.100]Now the smoke clear, now the vision20/20
[03:26.400]Lookin' at the wreckage,lookin' at the history.
[03:29.250]We both did wrong, we both played the fool
[03:32.220]Chasin' ghosts,breakin' every single rule.
[03:34.860]I looked at you, you looked at me
[03:37.800]And we saw the parts of us wecouldn't let be free.
[03:40.620]The insecurity, the fear, the need to control
[03:43.740]Turned a beautiful thing into a black hole.
[03:46.530]But loveain't about possession,ain't about complete control
[03:49.680]It's about two whole peoplemakin' each other whole.
[03:52.500]I gotta stoptakin', he gotta stopgivin' away
[03:55.740]The pieces of his soul he thought he had to pay.
[03:58.440]I'ma stoplookin' for worth in aman's hands
[04:01.380]I'ma build my own city on my own lands.
[04:04.170]My valueain't in how you treat me,it's in who I am
[04:07.380]Ain't defined by the love, but the love that I can.
[04:10.380]It's a rescue mission, yeah, a self- inflicted cure
[04:14.010]Gettin' back the power,gettin' back the pure.
[04:16.560]Loveain't aboutlosin' yourself in theother's dream
[04:19.260]It's about two strong riversflowin' to the same stream.
[04:22.590]So themirror's cracked, but wecleanin' up the glass

[04:33.990]No more. Wefindin' our worth, yeah, wefindin' our voice
