Paces

Girl I know we've been talking low key
And I know you've been waiting on me
Like am I ever gon' give myself to someone else?
Like am I ready?
That's my bad for being that way
But I like to take time and wait
Still trying to figure out what you're about
And if we're on the same page
Are you willing to ride, babe?
When you know that I'm on the grind?
Cause I know that you hate it
When I hit you with that one-line reply
Girl, I got no time for games
And I ain't the type to do breaks
But you should know I hear ya
She said, what are you waiting for?
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Are you scared to commit?
Don't lie, are you even looking for someone?
You know I want ya
And I know you want me too
Not tryna ignore ya
I'm just playing it cool
Look, pardon this caution
Heart's heartened and heavily guarded
Our time is heavenly I need to stroll the garden
And catch every glimmer is all
If I wasn't with it, I would not be involved
Look, before you know a couple inside jokes
And my folks and every flaw by its name
I need to know the brush strokes
And if the lusters match the claims
And I trust that you must do the same
I spent years stirring paint and praying colors change
Give me every shade of lovely
I would never give you pain
I've been gigging lately
Lost inside all kinds of places
A lot of forced smiles and blurry faces
With you the only time I don't feel anxious
I know how quickly time moves
And I do have love for you
If you're not ready to lose it all
If it's not all you hoped for, should you?
If it never was, would you shrug like it was nothing to you?
I don't need a relationship to check the box or fill the spaces
So if that's okay, let's go the paces
What are you waiting for?
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Are you scared to commit?
Don't lie, are you even looking for someone?
You know I want ya
And I know you want me too
Not tryna ignore ya
I'm just playing it cool
She said, what are you waiting for?
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Are you scared to commit?
Don't lie, are you even looking for someone?
You know I want ya
And I know you want me too
Not tryna ignore ya
I'm just playing it cool
