[Verse 1]
if I had a choice I rather my higher power decide to take me first
I think the other way around would only make me worse
rarely was I ever trusted without the suspicions
and very few could ever love me without the conditions
those are the ones I care to treasure, ones I wouldn't dare sever
a bunch of my peers' efforts been fair weather
the deaf have great vision and the blind man can hear better
figured since I lost all my senses that I would fear better
I'm not the social type, nothin' about him socialite
designed the prototype, how to unlove overnight
flip side, I die for my niggas, put it the simplest
you give me your all and I'ma send it back with interest
this is for my niggas that helped me before I suggested
I'm just tryna send the flowers before you could jest it
the man in fact that I've become, you had a hand in that
and I'll give ya'll the world but I'm sure that ya'll would hand it back
[Chorus]
we will never be apart
it's like two bodies livin' with one heart
together like a lock and key
without you, there is no me
things will never be the same
if you weren't here with me, I couldn't see
livin' in a nothin' place
wherever you go, you know I'm goin' with you
(with you, with you...)
[Verse 2]
I mean, she was on the phone tryna sound relaxed
but the words comin' out her mouth ain't got the sound to match
voice tremblin' as if you were barely holdin' on
meanwhile tryna be strong to protect your second born
shit was scary to me, if somethin' happened to you
what'll happen to us, like I'm livin' vicariously
I seen your life flash, right past, my reaction buried deep inside
if you go, they'll have to bury me alive
how would I survive, fuck 'em mom you meant more
life coach and mentor, just a grim thought makes me skin crawl
single mother, held it down when my pop was locked away
cried every time I gave my mom a gift on Father's Day
but I'll be here for you, like you were there for yours
and she was layin', decayin' all the days spent prayin'
gospel music playin', a few days from death
but always felt us on our way in, we were like her safe haven
you always thought you were her least favorite child
only sibling that showed up, you at least make her smile
at least make her proud, not an obstacle that's too hard
true stars strive to be half the person you are
ain't never neglect, so I'll forever respect
I more than owe my life to you, I'm forever in debt, check
I mean my mother got cancer in her neck
but I'll be behind you every step, what the fuck did you expect
[Chorus]
we will never be apart
it's like two bodies livin' with one heart
together like a lock and key
without you, there is no me
things will never be the same
if you weren't here with me, I couldn't see
livin' in a nothin' place
wherever you go, you know I'm goin' with you
(with you, with you...)
[Verse 3]
I'm like damn, how you always know better than me
amazes me when you show me what I never could see
so the break up never really was a plan to me
in retrospect, I think I was complacent with insanity
we were so exhausted, bored with, tortured
but since I couldn't picture my life without you I fought it
like we could get through anythin', too much pride in us
better off without each other, I would've been deprivin' us
at times you see people in ways you shouldn't portay 'em
'cause they ain't livin' up to a title you shouldn't have gave 'em
headshot pointblank range committed murder
honestly thought I couldn't move on then went further
used to want to see you suffer for the pain you caused
now when I see you gain, I applaud
what I'm tryna say is, don't complain about your path and where it took you
'cause you might end up with somebody to sing this hook to
[Chorus]
we will never be apart
it's like two bodies livin' with one heart
together like a lock and key
without you, there is no me
things will never be the same
if you weren't here with me, I couldn't see
livin' in a nothin' place
wherever you go, you know I'm goin' with you
(with you, with you...)
