Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Why don’t you answer my calls no more?
Is it something that I’ve said?
Tired of checking my telephone
You’re running through my head
We used to stay up for hours, many nights
Fussin’ and fightin’, fuckin’ and lyin’
Nights in Miami, tears at the GRAMMYs
[Chorus]
Just want to thank you
For being my mirror
Showing me myself
I just want to thank you
You help me see clearer
Like nobody else
[Verse 2]
Now that the feelin’ is floated away
And I got a bit of clarity
Addicts are addicts and will never change
But we’re never scared to be
I’ll get it all out my system, by God’s grace
I’ll never regret you, it’s heaven that sent you
But I’ll never go back, I hope that you know that
[Chorus]
Just want to thank you
For being my mirror
Showing me myself
I just want to thank you
You help me see clearer
Like nobody else
