[Verse 1]
My momma gon' see me when I work right
And I'm working all day, been nighttime
I'm waving goodbye to the cause life
Tryna find myself, get my head and my mind right, yuh
I see you, see you good on the timeline
But this days, I be avoiding the timeline
These days you can't even be my type
These days you can't even be yourself

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm terrified of loving you
I said, I'm terrified of loving you
So I'll be on my way
Yeah, I'll be on my way, eh, eh, yeah

[Chorus]
You tell me I, you tell me I
I should be like everybody else
You know how it works when you graduate
Get a real job, take it to the bank
You tell me I, you tell me I
I should be like everybody else
Are you gonna move out or hide away?
Are you right here or somewhere else?
Oh, I'm terrified of loving you

[Verse 2]
Woke up to a message from my mom, right?
Asking if I'm doing okay under star lights
I'm north of Hollywood and it feel right
Yeah, I'm never looking back at my old life
Moving on into a place like huh
Looking all around at my space like, "What?"
Doing all I can with a small check
Yeah, I'm pouring up in ice in the morning

[Interlude]
No one can tell us who we gonna be (no one)
What lies inside ourself is only freedom

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm terrified of loving you
I said, I'm terrified of loving you
So I'll be on my way
Yeah, I'll be on my way, eh, eh, eh
[Chorus]
You tell me I, you tell me I
I should be like everybody else
You know how it works when you graduate
Get a real job, take it to the bank
You tell me I, you tell me I
I should be like everybody else
Are you gonna move out or hide away?
Are you right here or somewhere else?
Oh, I'm terrified of loving you
