Both Ways Lyrics by Jeffrey James

Unsaid

2016

Say you're in love with who I am, I know it ain't true
Because I... I get the feeling I am changing just to please you
Trynna ,pull me into a fantasy
I could never be everything you need
Without losing all the shit we had to go through

And You don't get it both ways
There's no way around it
I can't be the person you know I am not
I'm not trying to hurt us
But I don't know what you want
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Who am I supposed to be

Do you remember who I am and who you fell for (Who you fell for)
And do you even recall the reason that we started any more
I don't wanna live in a fantasy
Cause Baby you got everything I need
Either we're fixing on a future we close the door

Cause You don't get it both ways
There's no way around it
I can't be the person you know I am not
I'm not trying to hurt us
But I don't know what you want
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Who am I supposed to be

You and I know what kinda work it takes
Falling in love it ain't no mistake
So make up your mind before we break

Cause you don't get it both ways
I can't be that person

You don't get it both ways
There's no way around it
I can't be the person you know I am not
I'm not trying to hurt us
But I don't know what you want
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Who am I supposed to be
