It's Ok to Cry

Boys don’t cry, I ain’t saying that I did

I remember in the summer we were lovers, it was bliss

Both had a lot in common, we was coming from the bits

I would always have a Mars, you would always have a Twix

I know another brother’s probably in the mix

Get your fix, I’ll be getting mine, I tried a second time

A brave face can only last so long

I can’t believe that we let it die, now it’s the present time

And I developed a pressure, I wasn’t gettin mine - it’s bye-bye

but Never mind my eyes wide for the next bird, the next time

I’ll probably be the bad guy

'Cause good guys never make it to the finish line

Don’t know why I thought to give it time

Cause it only cut me deeper shoulda saw the signs

I still adore you but I love you from a distance

From best friends to strangers with distance for instance

You don’t write the same amount of kisses in your "text’es"

Remember when you told me I was different from your exes?

And now you’re probably telling him the same thing

I mean it’s cool but it’s not the same thing

It’s in the past, wish I could erase it

I’m caved in, never been the same since

It’s still a-blaze, wish I could have saved it

A bit of faith, wish we would have made it

You ain’t gotta be the tough guy all the time

Running from your walls won’t make it alright

It’s ok to cry, sometimes

It’s ok to cry, sometimes

(Check, ah) I got this front door camera on my phone

Sometimes I check it just to check you made it home

I crack a smile when I see you ain't alone

Know you need a friend and I've been sittin' on my jones

(Ah, trust) I leave a message at the tone

Probably better if you once said I don't moan (ay)

Then we don't argue, maybe pour me 'out my zone

Till you say a couple things about my life I don't condone

(Check) But anyways I'm bumpin' Kanye, hopefully

The bonus track, you know the bitter-sweet poetry

(Trust) I feel like knowing him is knowing me

And knowing you is knowing someone that I hope to be

But yo it's hopeless see?

'Cause I remember when you noticed me

I coulda benched the world over free[?]

Maybe I just never been livin' what I'm supposed to be

'Cause now I'm sittin with this beat, let my soul repeat

We over for the chorus, appreciate you let me tour

Say I'm sorry, leave my jumpers on the bedroom floor

For all the f*ckin' times I'm slammin' on the bedroom door

And all the troubles that I left, they were swept a-shore

But still I wonder why we've really never met before

When I was poor, only worry was the week I saw

'Cause now I'm raw, burnt rotten to the core

I throw away the money for the one that I adore

(Check, to give me more, give me more)

You ain’t gotta be the tough guy all the time

(Ah, to give me more, give me more)

Running from your walls won’t make it alright

It’s ok to cry, sometimes

It’s ok to cry, sometimes

I've never seen my pops cry

Men ain't really meant to

Prize too high, I was livin' to impress you

Sorry that I stressed you

Never thought I'd get you

Livin' in a mess, I was blessed by your rescue (Check you)

I admit that I checked your page, I couldn't help it

Didn't know the steps to take to move forward

But I seen you doin' well

Boys don't cry - if I did I wouldn't tell

Finger on the dial, I was thinkin' "Should I bell?"

Everythin' I dreamed, so imagine how I felt

But I wouldn't melt, I'm better by my self

If I never get to heaven 'least I made it through the hell

If crime doesn't help - find a woman like yourself

Left me on the shelf, it's the end of the book

I'm tryna' turn another page but wherever I look

The same story, regardless of the measures I took

So pray for me

Whenever the days tore me, hopin' you'd wait for me

But knowin' you ain't for me

Wishin' you might call, but this is a cycle

Ticker the white light and thinkin' its my fault

(Yeah, yeah)
