I Thought You Were Fate Oddisee (Ft. Olivier St. Louis & Sainte Ezekiel)

[Verse 1: Oddisee]
I had to be this way
We don't vibe anymore
Tension in the room, couldn't breathe, had to leave this space
I'll survive on my own
Only now could I take a look back on relief I made
To collide or condone
Hard choice when I heard your soft voice telling me to stay
Had to flee doubt, yea I had to be out
It's a big city, not enough for us to split it
I can make a living anywhere that I can visit
Didn't know it 'til I packed the rental with the vision
That became reality the more that you were distant
Saw you as a nest, now I see you as a net
Cause you saw me as a catch, now I see you as a prison
Of my own making, un-made it, now I'm different
Had to turn an is into an isn't

[Chorus: Olivier St. Louis and Oddisee]
I thought you were fate
I was wrong all along
I thought you were fate
My mistake, had to make
I thought you were fate
In the end, just pretend
I thought you were fate
