ai - the kids we used to be lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve been too quick to give advice
i just wanted to be right like my gramps, right
you know some secrets about me but keep them locked tight
if all that stuff ever got out, i’d have to pay my price
but you ain’t sent me down the river and i wonder why
cause i’m the caterpillar to your dancing b-tterfly
the ugly past that no one ever bothers to remember
but if i could go back, i can’t say i’d do it any better
need to get the f-ck out of this town
i can’t drive around
everywhere i go reminds me of a sight or sound
of all the things i lost cause i was acting so d-mn proud
because i got caught up chasing and trying to get crowned
i f-cked up, i’ll admit it
want to apologize so we can both forget it
but you hate me, and i know why, so
i guess this is my goodbye

[chorus]
and i know, i know
the things you tried to tell me in your simple way
were so cold
i tried to see another way
another face
but all i see is
is you
and i know, i know
the things you tried to tell me in your simple way
were so cold
i tried to see another way
another face
but all i see is
is you

[verse 2}
you were good to me
helped me through sh-t
you said i was great and i believed it
i think the same about you
hope you believe that
i know my head is f-cked
i know i am wack
i know i’m crazy, i know i can be lazy
i know you be on me, and now you beyond reach
in those late nights, i mean most nights
you were my night light
helped me sleep tight
had me believing that the monster only lived inside my head
but now i see that on those nights, he just laid next to you in bed
i know i did you right
but i also did you wrong
that’s the part i can’t articulate so now it’s in this song
i know you’ve heard my sh-t before but what i say is true
so please believe me when i tell you that i’ll never turn back to

[hook]
the kids we used to be
the kids we used to be
the kids we used to be
the kids we used to be
the kids we used to be
the kids we used to be
the kids we used to, we used to
we used to be

[verse 3]
this is not what i meant when i told you throw it back
while i’m trying to build a future, you keep digging up the past
you kept tearing all my walls down, i was slamming closed the doors
you made me take my mask off, but don’t forget about yours
why was the hatchet that we buried used to stab me in the back
the only ones who talk behind you are the ones that you have p-ssed
but i can’t lie, you’re on my mind cause without you i’m not complete
please forgive what i’ve done to you
i’m not the kid i used to be
