Penny

[Verse 1] Retrospect is 20/20, about a girl named Penny Thought she wasn't worth it, she said I wasn't ready Too messed up in the head, plus no job steady I said I'm a starving artist, and you're supposed to get me But evidently what I represent's a bit sketchy Probly thinking something like, my dad would never let me I met the mom and sister, I think they both sweat me I said run away with me she said, please, don't tempt me But that was kindness, I know, she had her own plans And I understood, clearly, she deserves a grown man An optimist that's focused, likes to take her out Not some crazy type a genius always bringing her down Sometimes I sit and think that I'm best, without her Or maybe I made this song just so I could say it louder Prouder of myself now, then I was back then All I wanna do is tell her, girl, we can't, be, friends [Hook] Sometimes, I sit and think, I'm best left alone Then I get under the covers, remember the cold I miss you in the morning when I'm putting on my clothes When I'm sitting there, bored, just staring at the phone Sometimes, I sit and think, I'm best left alone Then I go out with the homies, see you at the show I miss you in the crowd when we sharing a smoke When I get bad news look for someone to hold [Sample] I'm gonna pry So I can see Or someday You may not see me, hanging on [Verse 2] Penny laughed a lot, I always had that Actually come to think of it, I'VE, always had that Nope that wasn't exclusive, and what about these raps? She went to my shows and gave me half-ass claps Perhaps it's merely that, I just don't like feeling lonely There's plenty more fish in the sea, she's not the only I asked her why she thought I was fly, and she told me There ain't nobody like me in the world, that's near holy I got a lot to offer, I'm honest, open and endowed I got a job now, would a made mom proud Yeah I can't stay off the drugs, but that's when it's just me Trust me, if you were here, I'd be drug free, you'd love me Sometimes I sit and think about me and you forever Perhaps I made this song to kinda be a love letter Or maybe I'm wrong, maybe alone is just better I'm a find a dime, yeah at the club, then undress her [Hook] Sometimes, I sit and think, I'm best left alone Then I get under the covers, remember the cold I miss you in the morning when I'm putting on my clothes When I'm sitting there, bored, just staring at the phone Sometimes, I sit and think, I'm best left alone Then I go out with the homies, see you at the show I miss you in the crowd when we sharing a smoke When I get bad news look for someone to hold
