Replaced

It’s 2 in the morning
But it’s 10 where you are
You’re calling my phone cause you’re lonely
And you didn’t know it’d be this hard
You say «I just need you to hold me
You’ve been gone for weeks»
You say you just miss me
But I hear the pain in your voice and I know what it means
No this ain’t the life that you wanted
Or the love that you need
All alone in a west side apartment
I’m on the east tryna chase these dreams
But you think I’m chasing the girls and the money
You’re pulling away look at what we’re becoming
Drifting apart over broken discussions
I told you I love you, it means something, yeah
I know you need a little time to breathe
I’m tryna talk you down from overseas
But baby think of me before you leave, please
I know you need a little bit of space
But I hope you know I love you more than words can say
Our history’s too long to just erase, no
Don’t let me be replaced
Hang up the phone almost every evening
I tell you goodnight
And we say our goodbyes
But you know that it don’t mean we’re sleeping, no
Baby our love is a mess
And I’m trying to keep what’s left
I need you to stay but I’m out of the state tryna keep us together through text
All you need is me to be around
I need you to believe that I’m holdin' you down
So baby don’t you think of leaving now
I’ll be home soon, and I know we’ll make it out
And I
I know you need a little time to breathe
I’m tryna talk you down from overseas
But baby think of me before you leave, please
I know you need a little bit of space
But I hope you know I love you more than words can say
Our history’s too long to just erase, no
Don’t let me be replaced
We could never be replaced
But is it love if you sleep alone?
If you have to leave a message for me at the tone
I can’t give you all of me while on the road
But I’m trying you should know
I know you hate it when you sleep alone
And you hate it when I’m bad at picking up the phone
I’m tryna give you everything while on the road
Keep holding on until I’m home
I know you need a little time to breathe
I’m tryna talk you down from overseas
But baby think of me before you leave, please
I know you need a little bit of space
But I hope you know I love you more than words can say
Our history’s too long to just erase, no
We could never be replaced
