[Verse 1]
We grew up singing the same songs
You tried to teach me to moonwalk
Shared every dream for the future (Mm)
Felt we had everything planned out
'Til you ran away with the wrong crowd
We were so close, now you’re so far (So far)

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's like
You don't understand what you put me through
I spent all my days tryna be like you
So why’d you go and change into someone new?

[Chorus]
Just don't forget that I was there for you
When the real life shakes you
And your fake friends hate you
Just don't forget that I was there for you
When you were way too faded
I would always save you
Just don't forget that I was there for you

[Verse 2]
Don't get carried away, man, you're floatin'
Don't be a drop in the ocean
We all get lost in the moment (Yeah)
And don’t you forget where you come from
Don’t let the lights get you all numb
I'm here with you for the long run (Ooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
So hear me out
I wish you would try to walk in my shoes
Just to see yourself from my point of view
Why’d you go and change into someone new?

[Chorus]
Just don't forget that I was there for you
When the real life shakes you
And your fake friends hate you
Just don't forget that I was there for you
When you were way too faded (Faded)
I would always save you (Save you)
Just don't forget that I was there for you
Just don’t forget that I was there for you

[Bridge]
You don't understand what you put me through
I spent all my days tryna be like you
So why'd you go and change into someone new?

[Chorus]
Just don't forget that I was there for you
When the real life shakes you
And your fake friends hate you
Just don't forget that I was there for you
When you were way too faded (Faded)
I would always save you (Save you)
Just don't forget that I was there for you
