[Chorus]
Counting bands up, in the foreign
Got my heart broke, no, I don't trust her
The hate is blinding, I'm always shinin'
I put the work first, I'm always grindin', ah
Counting bands up, in the foreign
Got my heart broke, no, I don't trust her
The hate is blinding, I'm always shinin'
I put the work first, I'm always grindin', ah

[Verse 1]
I always told them where to listen, oh, yeah
All my feelings got me thinking, oh, yeah, ah
All these plea's got me dreaming again
I could tell her everything, but she won't listen, yeah
