I Give You the Best
[Verse 1]
Oh, if I tried to show you the part I bring
I could give you the best
Give you the best of me
And I just wanna hear the sound of the drums marching
But I don't want you to let me down
Don't you let me down again
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I hold you like water (Water) just before the rain
And I hold you like fire (Fire) to ease my pain
And I'm bound to you
But, I don't recognize me in the shape of you
And I don't sympathize with what you can do
What you can do to me
[Chorus]
There must be glory, sadness, and laughter
For all of my wishes, my hoping, and after
(My hoping, my hope)
There must be glory, sadness, and laughter
[Verse 2]
Oh, if I try to show you the parts of me
Why don't you give me the best
Give me the best of you? (The best of you)
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I hold you like water (Water) just before the rain
And I hold you like fire (Fire) to ease my pain
Yeah, I'm bound to you (You)
But, I don't recognize me in the shape of you
But, I don't patronize, this is only you
Whatever you do to me
[Chorus]
There must be glory, sadness, and laughter
For all of my wishes, my hoping, and after
(My hoping, my hope)
There must be glory, sadness, and laughter
[Outro]
And this feeling
Please grab onto my emotions be this once
Everything that I have done until then
Is the reason for all of my tears
I'm wearing makeup tryna mend this myself
It's the part of me that's kept behind
I can't recognize whatever he says
It's the reason for all of my tears
I'm wearing makeup tryna mend this myself
Tryna mend this myself
Tryna mend this myself, oh
