You taught me to never assume
That when we do, we get consumed
Imma teach you the same lesson
Don't assume you can be messin'

Around with me, my ride or die
You respect and you don't defy
Following intention with an action
Talk's synonymous with inaction

You seem to have assumed
That I'll always come back to you
Like I am a boomerang
That you could just go and throw away

You got me so confused
Saying I'm not being used
Look it's only temporary
But all I feel is quite contrary

Baby, to what you say
Lately you got me feeling played
Cuz you be out here throwing shade
Feel like I'm the one who should be ashamed

You seem to have assumed
That I'll always come back to you
Like I am a boomerang
That you could just go and throw away

You're insane 
For lying to my * face
Crying is a * waste
Try me and I'll give you a taste

Of what it feels like when a true love dies
When healing us is not a matter of time
And that you don't always get back what you lose
So be careful of what you choose to do

You seem to have assumed
That I'll always come back to you
Like I am a boomerang
That you could just go and throw away

Feeling like deja vu
I'm in this same place again with you
Telling me what's your ideal
That which can't manifest for real

You can run but you cannot hide
That which haunts you late at night
And I know that I'll be in your dreams
The ones you wake up to and * scream
