Basically. Lyrics - Jay Shalé

[HOOK] 

Basically I'm not what you need 

And I never understood when you said that shit to me 

Back and forth 'cause I tried everything 

But I couldn't make sense of the things you do to me 

[VERSE 1] 

Threw it at me didn't think fast 

For future reference, no asking bout the past 

Simple answer I been through that 

Wake up, stretch, work 

Take a breath

[PRE-HOOK] 

When I'm out of it, you're in my mind 

And when I'm on something new 

you fell off 

like where did time, go? 

Oooooo 

It's so crazy that I'm still sane 

Even when I'm going crazy 

Maybe the situation made me 

Or 

Maybe you didn't feel it fully 

Or 

Maybe you were too good to believe but

In a perfect world I'd have you sitting here with me 

We'd be eating salmon with a couple greens 

Pinky's up cracking jokes while we drinking tea 

The apple of my eye, you mean the world to me 

And I looked you up on Facebook and saw that you had graduated 

Congratulations 

Your Instagram is private 

I don't check it out in public 

I used to never stay away from it 

I just have so many questions 

Does your brother still driver with uber? 

Drum sessions in between maneuvers? 

And do you still paint? 

You finally sell that michael jackson portrait that only took a couple days to make? 

And how's your family? 

I hope you're not still mad at me for certain things you were right about, that Inow write about 

And right about now 

I'm feeling kinda mixed up 

How can something you thought was forever, just switch up
