(Paid the price) I keep tryna fight these feels (fight it) Light sleep, I don't quite get healed (don't quite) I had to be right in here (had to be) I had to be right yeah-yeah Now you live in my mind rent-free I admit it was my pride, allegedly I done filled up all my time just to feel empty (empty) How you don't pay me no mind and then still be (still be) In my rent-free (rent-free) These days, I be real cautious, part of an artist (yeah) All of my words hit you the hardest (hardest) Now we gettin' further instead of farther (farther) Backseat, baby it's callin', I had to park it (had to park) I think it's hell, you need to get off it (off it) Ooh, don't you go makin' it harder 'Cause I been through a lot this year (through a lot) You been through a lot this year (through a lot) When it come to the fights this year (to the fights) Who really paid the price this year?
