Lyrics Ari Lennox – I Been
Text:
I’ve been smokin’ purple haze, ooo, to forget about you
I’ve been smokin’ purple haze, ooo, to forget about you
And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, I try
But I’m havin’ the worst luck on Tinder
I try, and I try, and I try, I try, I try
To give you something good, cause I know you would
Give it to me, too
I’ve been smokin’ purple haze, ooo, to forget about you
I’ve been smokin’ purple haze, ooo, to forget about you
But you lie, and you lie, and you lie, and you lie, you lie
It’s the forty-seventh time that I’ve changed my number
Should call you Mannie Fresh cause you’s the number one stunta
You lie, and you lie, and you lie, and you lie, you lie
I gave you something good, cause I know you would
Give it to me, too
Don’t date these niggas til you’re forty-three
A heartbreak gonna creep on after me
I try to cover up what I feel inside
It hurt me so deep and
You know, life is too short to be blockin’ your blessings like that
To be blockin’ potential blessings, like
Yeah, you may never get married again, you may never find the love of your life again
But, hey, that’s life
And please don’t be in a situation where that person’s tearing you down mentally, emotionally, physically, y-
We’ve heard it a million times, I think emotional abuse is way worse than physical, sometimes
Cause that just fucks up your whole mind
You could develop whole disorders like that
Whole disorders
You guys tell me why this old nigga from my past hit me up, talkin’ bout somethin’
And you, um, you had a crush on me?»
I was like, «yeah, that sounds like me»
But my thing is, like, nigga, like you feelin’ yourself
You’re feelin’ yourself a little too hard, talkin bout «you had a crush on me»
Nigga, yes, at like, fucking seven
Relax, relax
