Remedy for a Broken Heart

Quentin Butler

One for the broken heart
One to sit on the chart
One for those who felt the pain to love right from the start
Man that was me
Swear to god, that was me
My ex did a number, left a burn, third degree
I got the burns to prove it 'cause she used some lighter fluid
She burned through my heart because I don't know what I'm doing
I guess
I must confess
I'm getting closer to numb
Closer to dumb
Beating on my own drum
Yeah, I'm beating and beating, I'm single-file in movie theaters
Putting on crocs to rock with a wife-beater
Closed the page, the book was bringing me deeper
Time after time, kept giving girls sequels
Meeting different mamas, different daddies, different people
Hoping that my partner's going to treat me like their equal
A shot in the dark but I still thread the needle
The way you do me wrong is going to make my words lethal
Man yeah
I want to heal the world through my music, man yeah
I want to make the heartbreak up and disappear
I want a clean slate for my life, crystal clear
I want a girl besides family to be there
Yeah
I don't think I'll have it
Only time you look at me, is when you want me to tap it
I want to knock it out the park, but I can't say I batted
'Cause I never got a chance to show you what it was
And when I tried, you didn't care but still caused a fuss
Got me chasing after you you, now I'm looking dumb
But you want a second chance, yeah, sorry hun
Remember sitting on the beach, laughing in the sun?
Talking of a life that had never begun
Of course you don't remember 'cause you said you were done
I see why people end the pain by using a gun
Yeah yeah
One for the broken heart
One to sit on the chart
One for those who felt the pain to love right from the start
Man that was me
Swear to god, that was me
My ex did a number, left a burn, third degree
I got the burns to prove it 'cause she used some lighter fluid
She burned through my heart because I don't know what I'm doing
I guess
I must confess
I'm getting closer to numb
Closer to dumb
Beating on my own drum
So, I'm closer to this
I'm closer to that
We can go tit for tat, but you never brought back
I got a question to ask
Girl, what's up with that?
Had a heart attack, now I'm sitting here sad
Why should I compensate for everything that you lack?
You never spared a dime, never offered me jack
Stressed me out, couple skulls I want to crack
The love handbook never once mentioned that
Dodging phone calls, swatting all the gnat gnats
Throw dirt on my name, thought that I would clap back
I think deep down, she wished I had a strap
You know them fast little girls like a hood rat
When I leave the hood, swear I'm never coming back
She only wants me back so that I can bend that back back
Yeah, call me crazy, girl, that's a red flag
Mama raised me humble, got it all, don't brag
Yeah, it's nothing left to say but I speak anyways
Looking to stars in hopes for better days
Went and risked it all just for us to part ways
"It's not you, it's me, Q, we really need a break"
Yeah, it's in my name but I've never been a snake
Cause the heartbreak, yeah I never could relate
Living on own, yeah I had a bitter taste
I'm fortunate for all the manifesting that I made
One for the broken heart
One to sit on the chart
One for those who felt the pain to love right from the start
Man that was me
Swear to god, that was me
My ex did a number, left a burn, third degree
I got the burns to prove it 'cause she used some lighter fluid
She burned through my heart because I don't know what I'm doing
I guess
I must confess
I'm getting closer to numb
Closer to dumb
Beating on my own drum
Yeah, it's nothing left to say but I speak anyways
Looking to stars in hopes for better days
Went and risked it all just for us to part ways
It's not you, it's me, Q, we really need a break
Yeah, it's in my name but I've never been a snake
'Cause the heartbreak, yeah I never could relate
Living on own, yeah I had a bitter taste
I'm fortunate for all the manifesting that I made
