Forever Don’t Hit Like Before Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Going through old conversations
Giving up on expectations
I ain’t feeling it no more
Bottle of wine, cheap temptations
Couple cycles in rotation
I ain’t feeding it no more
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s a matter of time
Can’t predict the end, so I can’t be sure
How do I protect my heart if I don’t keep score?
I can’t ignore
Now that I figured out none of this s*it gon’ last
Forever just don’t hit like before
[Chorus]
Ooh
Ooh
Forever just don’t hit like before
Ooh
Ooh
Forever just don’t hit like
[Verse 2]
Don’t say it
What a waste of my patience
Don’t wanna believe you’re different
‘Cause words don’t mean s*it from experience
Fly out your mouth, ain’t no weight in ’em
You gon’ let me down
Don’t say it
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause it’s a matter of time
Can’t predict the end, so l can’t be sure (Be sure)
How do I protect my heart if I don’t keep score?
I can’t ignore
Now that I figured out none of this s*it gon’ last
Forever just don’t hit like before
[Chorus]
Ooh
Ooh (Yeah, yeah)
Forever just don’t hit like before
Ooh
Ooh
Forever just don’t hit like before
[Outro]
Somebody tell me why
Someone explain it, that I
Somebody tell me why, why
Forever just don’t hit like before?
