been abouta year

Jessie Reyez

One, two, three

Been about a year since I had a drink
Been about a year since I talked to my brother
Lost love again, I think I m on the brink
But the irony is getting everything else that you wanted
Been about a year since I had a drink
But everything I wanted s at the bottom of a bottle
Wish I was dumb and I wouldn t overthink
And I wish I was nice and more like my mother

Oh, how come it never goes
The way that you fucking planned it? Yeah
Like I m slow, like I m a fucking joke
Like God somewhere up there laughing

Well, where s my baby? Where s my diamonds?
Where s the famous silver lining I was promised?
To be honest, life is falling kinda short
Well, where s my baby? Where s my diamonds?
Where s the famous silver lining I was promised?
To be honest, life is falling kinda short

From what I was told
From what I was told
I got fool s gold
The future ain t nothing but some
Fool s gold

Been about a year since I had a drink
But mushrooms ground cause I m California sober
Lost love again, I think I got a kink
For anyone available who wants to fuck me over
Been about a year since I had a drink
Bought a crib in LA but I m only getting colder
Wish I was dumb and I wouldn t overthink
But it s only getting worse and I m only getting older

Oh, how come it never goes
The way that you fucking planned it? Yeah
Like I m slow, like I m a fucking joke
Like God somewhere up there laughing, ha

Well, where s my baby? Where s my diamonds?
Where s the famous silver lining I was promised?
To be honest, life is falling kinda short
Well, where s my baby? Where s my diamonds?
Where s the famous silver lining I was promised?
To be honest, life is falling kinda short

From what I was told, yeah
From what I was told
I got fool s gold
Future ain t nothing but some fool s gold
Yeah
