I don't need you fake love
I can do it by myself
Cause every time I cried out for help
All I heard was an echo
All I heard was an echo
I dealt with pain everyday
Taught myself how to be strong
I was down hoping someone would respond
All I heard was an echo
All I heard was an echo
I prayed for better days
Dear Lord show me a better way
Every time I give an ounce of trust
I get led astray
Everyday, another battle
But I never break
Another dagger in my heart, that bitch gon' separate
Dealt with hate
They call it love but I can tell it's fake
They don't wanna see you win unless they're there to celebrate
Same shit in every case
Tell you that they're starvin'
You bring em to your table to eat
They never set the plate
Get the hook, set the bait
Fake friends will take the cake
I learned to cut relationships before the second date
Every time I put somebody first I end up second place
It's safe to say I finally learned from my mistakes
I don't need your fake love, I can do it by myself
Cause every time I cried out for help
All I heard was an echo
All I heard was an echo
I dealt with pain every day
Taught myself how to be strong
I was down hopin' someone would respond
All I heard was an echo
(Savannah, what up?)
All I heard was an echo
My life today is night and day
At night I prayed I'd find my way
At last, I swear I'm two tidal waves, I grabbed the match, ignite the flames
I know it's true, it's price to pay, I smile and act like I'm okay
Addictions bent my heart in place, the pulses grabbed me right away
Now, heard was an echo on a verge of a let go
I hear these voices screamin' at me and it's servin' my mental
Just cause I got some money now, when I emerge from the ghetto
Don't mean I'm not still going through it, I've been cursed by the devil
(Echoes)
That's why it's off of me to tell if the support is real, born to kill, torn at will
Depressed, I'm drinkin' 40 still
Savannah called me and told me let's get to work
So I had to risk it all and I put my heart in this verse (yeah yeah)
I don't need your fake love, I can do it by myself
Cause every time I cried out for help
All I heard was an echo
All I heard was an echo
I dealt with pain everyday
Taught myself how to be strong
I was down, hopin' someone would respond
All I heard was an echo
All I heard was an echo
