According to Big Sean, girls only pronounce hate for guys they love
I told you I hated Drake while under fire, but, in truth, I love him
With my entire deluded heart
Do you know how much I hate you
For apologizing to me when I did you wrong?
I guess I’d been feeling Nice for What
I won’t apologize for getting my tits sucked
In defense of all shamed sluts
Though, I’m sorry for sewing my heart shut
Another day with Lana Del Rey
Another night with an empty cunt
I want to say I can’t wake up without you
But you don’t want another selfish song
I need a strength
I’ve never had
To let the past be gone
