[Hook]
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)

[Verse 1: G-Eazy]
Uh, This wasn't typical for me don't confuse it
Only thing I've ever loved before you was music
Took my heart and bruised it, You ain't give a fuck
I guess you never know what you have til' you lose it
I know soon you'll probably see it all clear
And realize you lost a real love
Who was here for you unconditionally, but it's ugly
Now years down the line, you reminisce to the point you shed a tear
But I'll be long gone and I never will appear in you're life no more
So gimme 'bout a year, Turn on the radio and I'll be all that you can hear
And you'll be mad you ever went and let me disappear
Now it's only my dreams that I run to
It just sucks that one of them will never come true
You did some shit that you can't Apple "Z" undo
You cocked back and shot me down witch'ya gun boo
And I still got the wounds that'll prove it
What the fucks the point of having love if you lose it?
Took the energy, that's what I go into the booth with
Now I write a song from my heart, You abuse it
And paint the picture of a love lost
Now I know I can't afford the price love cost
Feelin' feeble and weak from the blood loss seeping from my chest
Now I know it just ain't what it once was

[Hook]
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)

[Verse 2: G-Eazy]
And since you peaced every day has been a struggle to
Maintain sane when I know I'm still in love with you
Seeing you around with somebody else touchin' you, I'm sick to my stomach wondering is he fuckin' you?
And I know I'm buggin' too, wishin' I could let it go and stop thinkin' 'bout you
But I can't forget it though
You were my queen and you were my dream, til' you turned nightmare I just wanna scream
Somebody please pinch me, I just gotta wake up
I just keep missin' how it was before the break up
Stuck in the past when you were my ace
I just hope you know you could never be replaced
It burns like mace in my face, a vodka shot straight no chase, When I think of us being erased
But you don't feel the same, showin' no empathy
Whatever fuck it, I guess it wasn't meant to be
Aha ha, It is what it is, Take it how you want it."

[Hook]
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)
Til' now I always got by on my own (On my own)
I never really cared til' I met you (Til' I met you)

G-Eazy

Gerald Earl Gillum, better known as G-Eazy, is an RCA signed rapper from Oakland, California. He has gained traction in the rap game, with his iconic dapper style, timeless sampling, and mix of West Coast and Southern Rap influences.

While G-Eazy’s rap career goes far back into his early teens, his first major hit “Runaround Sue” from The Endless Summer set him on the fast track to success. Years later G-Eazy’s release of “I Mean It” gave him his first platinum record and a platform to show the world what he is made of. One of his biggest and most well-known hits to date is the platinum record, “Me, Myself, & I” from When It’s Dark Out, which peaked at number 7 on the Hot 100.

He then went on to score two more smash hits in the form of “No Limit” with Cardi B and A$AP Rocky and “Him & I” with then-girlfriend Halsey. Both songs cracked the top twenty, peaking at numbers 4 and 14, respectively. Both hits were tracks off his 2017 album, The Beautiful & Damned which peaked on the Billboard 200 at the number 3 spot.
