Rather Be Lyrics

Rather be with you
Rather be with you
Rather be with you
With you

This club don't close 'til 6 a.m.
She say that she'll be here 'til then
Ask what's up with me after
I'll probably be in bed
She only strips on the weekend
She told me that she's a fan
I'll just sit here and pretend
That I don't wanna be with you instead

Rather be with you (said I would)
Rather be with you (okay)
Rather be with you
With you, oh

I told you I'd focus on me, but I've been on bullshit since you left me
That wasn't my plan, but you out here again doin' shit, tryna test me
You movin' spiteful and doin' shit, hopin' that it gets back to me, babe
I would rather be back at your place, tell me, can I come back there again?
'Cause I'm over us bein' messy
I'm reminiscin' on that one time we were fuckin' crazy in the backseat
Yeah, the sex was cool and all, but, honestly, I miss my bestie
I got so much to update you on, I'm beggin' you, baby, to text me

Rather be with you (said I would)
Rather be with you (okay)
Rather be with you
With you, oh

It's 5 a.m. and my head is spinnin'
I got so drunk, now I can't feel shit now
At least it makes it easier to pretend
That I don't wanna be with you instead

Rather be with you
Rather be with you
Rather be with you
With you

Rather be with you
Rather be with you
Rather be with you
With you, ooh

It's plain to say life will never be the same
It's way too late, still fuckin' 'round, I'm out this bitch
I'm drunk, I'm gone, but you and me don't never bend
Take me out 'cause this shit gettin' lonely now
Love-drunk, love-drunk, you want me come home tonight
Fucked up, iced out, 1942 tonight
I'm too love-drunk, I miss me and my brothers
But I'm too drunk, love-drunk, only wantin' you tonight
It's plain to say life will never be the same (rather be with you)
It's way too late, still fuckin' 'round, I'm out this bitch (rather be with you)
I'm drunk, I'm gone, but you and me don't never bend (rather be with you)
Take me out 'cause this shit gettin' lonely now (with you, ooh)

Yeah, I can't hide this shit, I feel lost
I can't lie to you, girl, I feel crossed
Hit the strip, now I'm throwin' up, ayy
Now I'm throwin' up ones
Take the AMEX 'til I go dumb
I told Dev, "Go take out some funds"
I'm tryna pour up 'til I can't feel, uh, ayy
'Til I can't feel nothin'
No matter how much that shit cost
I still can't get you out of my thoughts
I still think about you when I'm sauced (facts)
No matter how much shit that I bought
No matter how many times we fought
It made me only wanna be with you more
It's safe to say, sometimes I still get lonely, girl
It's safe to say, I'd rather you be on me, girl
I ain't to blame, babe, I won't take the fall for you
I can't just fake, it ain't easy gettin' over you

Rather be with you
Rather be with you
Rather be with you
With you, ooh
