[Intro: Amber Simone]
If the world was ending
You would try to take me for my last breath
Holding out a gun up to my forehead
Drown me out so you can stay afloat instead
I can't wait for you, for you
I won't wait for you
I will pray for you

[Bridge: Josh Cortes & Tems]
Please don’t tell to me you didn’t wait
(Higher, say It' higher-er-er-er)
If you was with him before, it’s ok
I forgive, but it’s not ok
(ATL Jacob, ATL Jacob)

[Verse 1: Josh Cortes]
You praying on my demons, girl, I got you
And on this song, I know it’s calm but it’s vulnerable
Sounds of a heart, crying trying to stay calm
But understand It’s hard to face what life is throwing
Sometimes you stay and play kid but forget you grown
I still hear your tears when they dropped over the phone
Get mad at yourself 'cause you couldn’t leave her alone
Worship what could have been, stop, what you doing?
Yeah
