Lyrics What U Get - A-natural

I was thinking that I should call you
And see if you still feel the way that I do
One morning text can't hurt, what could that do
When just the other day things were so good

People in the past said I can come on too strong
Relationships won't last if I am the only one
Working
To make sure the momentum stays
Moving
And that's exactly why you strayed from me

I know I'm different
Heart outside of my chest
No smoke and mirrors
This is what you get
I'm far from trendy
I'm not what you expect
So much of what you see is what you get

I been thinking 'bout if someone hurt you
To make you think my kindness was to trap you
Into thinking that you owed me obligation
When the only thing I need's communication

All these comment sections tryna rewrite the truth
And all I wanted was to spend some more time with you
Crazy
How I'm oblivious to how
They think
I guess I'm just a different kind of breed

I know I'm different
Heart outside of my chest
No smoke and mirrors
This is what you get
I'm far from trendy
I'm not what you expect
So much of what you see is what you get

Mama always taught me that you reap what you sow
And daddy always told me never argue with folks
So maybe I'm too nice, maybe I should be cold
But if I'm planting love seeds need them bitches to grow
It's like everybody making up the rules as they go
Instead of simply sayin' what you pushin' up on me for
Cuz if you just wanna fuck shoulda made that shit clear
Before I opened up my heart and put you permanent there
Feelin' like I'm an alien
Livin' in a world where there's always better men
And all I want is my person, we twinninem
And I was hoping you really coulda been
Recap
Shoulda never bought them tickets, shoulda never did that
Shoulda never let you meet the crew, but you handled that
Shoulda never let you stay and make love to me like that
Shoulda never said I love you, wait I never said that

I know I'm different
Heart outside of my chest
No smoke and mirrors
This is what you get
I'm far from trendy
I'm not what you expect (Not what you expect)
So much of what you see is what you get (This is what you get)

I know I'm different
Heart outside of my chest (Said I wear my heart outside)
No smoke and mirrors
This is what you get (It's always been my life)
I'm far from trendy (And I ain't never been like nobody)
I'm not what you expect (And you ain't never gonna meet nobody like me)
So much of what you see is what you get
