Written by BANKS, Christopher Taylor, DJ Dahi
This is not about me I can see you taking it personally I see you put your pride aside I'll wait a minute while you try to compensate
No, this is not about me I see you thinking I'm a missing piece To the puzzle that you use for life I'll wait a minute while you try to come for mine
All this distance Treated all bad And I've been covered second Don't want to live a lie Beaten, battered And it don't matter Don't deny I've said too much Don't ask me why
Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm
This is not about me Or the way that you could never play it cool I could see you wanting me to say That me walking away was a big mistake
No, this is not about me I see you clinging to your pinch of hope Trying to get up in my bed You should be thinking of a way of moving on instead
All this distance Treated all bad And I've been covered second Don't want to live a lie Beaten, battered And it don't matter Don't deny I've said too much Don't ask me why
Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about
What you told me It never mattered I never needed it (This is not about) That you were tongue-tied And what you sold me I never bought it (This is not about) How I found out That you were vacant You never stood up (This is not about) All the times I tried to prove to you
Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us Mmm, this is not about us
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
