Only Ever Lyrics by Yef

Rebuilding An Empire

2021

[Intro]
If you know you’re gonna frustrate me
If you know you’re gonna aggravate me
If you know you’re gonna be annoying
Then leave me alone

[Verse 1 - Takara]
I’m forever on my phone
Cause I couldn’t leave you alone
And I still care, when I stood right there
I could tell you wouldn’t notice me

Should’ve known you wouldn’t change
And that things would stay the same
And you know I’m meant to be
And eventually, you’d wish you had chosen me

[Chorus - Takara]
Cause I'd be calling and calling
For you it wouldn’t be falling
And now It really got a hold on me (on me)

And you can say what you like
Should have never even tried
Gave you one chance, you messed all three (all three)

You’re too blind to see it
No, I can’t leave it
But if you’re ready you can come through

No mistaking my heart
Cause I could only ever want you

[Post Chorus]
Take it, aye
Only ever, only- aye
Oo-oo, only ever
Ay-ee-ay-ee
Wasn’t that far
Ay-ee-ay-ee
Oo-oo, only ever
Only ever want you

Take it, aye
Only ever, only- aye
Take it- aye
Ay-ee-ay-ee
Wasn’t that far
Ay-ee-ay-ee
Oo-oo, only ever
Only ever want you


[Verse 2 - yef]
Yeah, I’m out here going wild
My 4th brother said he wasn’t feeling The Off-Season
Now I’m the Middle Child
Now that’s a YouTube comment, shoutout to John Barr
I got so many Ferrari’s I pick the wrong car In the morning

I’m working whilst you’re yawning
I recommend you check the tallies, I’ve upgraded all the points in scoring
Take the narrow path, not the Broadway, call that performing
“Ay engineer, you know I’m ready, can you start recording?”

Fam, stop with them lies
You said you’re gonna do it, but how many tries?
And if I ever fall? Trust me, I rise
All I see is no rules, Lord of the Flies

And If you’re lucky I could put you in Prada
The secret’s out but I didn’t say nada
More time I’m no part of the saga
This a money tree as if I come from Ghana

[Chorus - Takara and yef]
Cause I'd be calling and calling
For you it wouldn’t be falling
And now It really got a hold on me (on me)

And you can say what you like
Should have never even tried
Gave you one chance, you messed all three (all three)

You’re too blind to see it
No, I can’t leave it
But if you’re ready you can come through

No mistaking my heart
Cause I could only ever (only, only)
Only ever

[Outro]
Only ever want you
Only ever-only ever want you
Oo-oo, only ever want you
Only ever want you
Take it a-
Only ever want you
Wasn’t that far
Only ever want you
Way-away-away
Only ever want you
Ay-ee-ay-ee-ay
