I don’t know

I  don’t know who I am, but don’t know why you left me so fast
Keep accepting me back, believe me in the past
Woooah
I think we need to slow down 
Drinking and thinking I jus wanna know how imma do this on my own 
Used to wake up to you now I don’t know where I’m at
I still remember that trip, laughing and smiling with the Nike hat 
I know you at the club thinking about me and it’s so sad 
But just know I’m sitting in the basement. I’m down bad
Woahhh
Where are you going wearing all that going to a funeral I’m wearing all black 
True I’m in the basement thinking about you and all I want is you back
Woah
Say you don’t love me no more. I’m just trying to put on a face.
Accept me back take your time. I know you need space
Woahh
