I got issues and chips [G]on both of my shoulders
[Dm]Reputation precedes me, in rumors, I’m knee-deep
The [C]truth is, it’s easier to ignore it, believe me
Even [Dm]when we’d argue, we’d not do it for long
And you under[Am]stand the good and bad end [G]up in the song
For all your [Dm]beautiful traits, and the way you do it with ease
For all my [C]flaws, paranoia, and insecurities
I’ve made [Dm]mistakes and made some choices, that’s hard to deny
After the [Am]storm, something was [G]born on the 4th of July
I’ve passed [Dm]days without fun, this end game is the one
With four words on the tip of my tongue, I’ll never say it

And [Am]I bury hatchets, but I keep [G]maps of where I put ’em
[Dm]Reputation precedes me, they told you I’m crazy
[C]I swear I don’t love the drama, it loves me
And I [Dm]can’t let you go, your hand prints on my soul
It’s like your [Am]eyes are liquor, it’s like your [G]body is gold
You’ve been [Dm]calling my bluff on all my usual tricks
So here’s the truth from my red lips
