Inertia from Fake Life by Amari-Saleem Robertson

Tell me something right now
What you wanna give me, I give in
Tell me something now
What you wanna get me on
Tell me something right now
What you wanna give me, I give it
I know you need love
I know you need love

In every single feeling
In every single feeling
I know you want love
I know you want love
I know you need it
I know you need it
I know you want love
Why not just say it
I know you need this
l could just show you
I don’t wanna rush
I don’t gotta feel it
But I see you feel it
But I don’t deny it
I don’t wanna lie
See it as the truth
I don’t wanna lie
Accept every little bit of you
But I know you need love
I cannot deny it all
I know you need love
I don’t wanna see you fall
I know you need love
I just gotta stay up
I know you need love
Run against the clouds
I know you need love
Run against the hate
I know you need love
Run into the love

(Running, race)
(Running, race)

Couldn’t tell the truth
Couldn’t face a feeling
I was up with you, we was really chilling
I struck the moon, on my way past the stars
I glassed the moon, acting hard
And I’m not acting hard
Saw you and I lost, saw you and I lost it
I can’t afford the cost
Baby, not rocket science
But you got a real big life
But you got a real big life
I don’t fit in the puzzle, yeah
I don’t fit in the puzzle, yeah
Take the-
Grab the gun, lose the muzzle
Shoot it up to the moon, shoot it up to the sky
I done went way so high, I done got way too high
I start to lose all my mind, I start to miss all the pieces
I start to look for something, A feeling I reach it
A feeling I reach for

‘Cause I know that baby, that you need love
I know that you can’t have enough
I know that you really need love
I know that you really need love
And you never really get enough
I been tryna tell you something soft
I been tryna tell you something soft
Only tryna tell you something soft
I know you need love, could never get enough

(If you want it, If you want it)
(I could give it, If you want it)
(Had enough, I don’t love it)
(But I love, what I get from it)
(I don’t know, what’s it all for)
(I don’t know, but I still respond)
(I still adore you, I’d still give you a f-)
(I’d still give you a-)

Face the truth
Before I close the door on you

Many feelings, many losses
I know
Say the same thing
Yeah, I know
But it feel different, don’t it?
Yeah, you know
I could never show you
I could never show
Everything I owe you
Oh, I never know
Throw it all away, lost myself again
I don’t play these games
Baby, I don’t play these games

I don’t want to play these games, baby
Trying to make sense
Of a broken little thing, baby
Endless dividends, money never spent
Save it up for rent, take it all again
Show it off instead, make another plan
Something I don’t get it, feeling’s still here
But it’s really clear, I been steady trippin
I don’t wanna feel
Tell me what’s the difference
Is it real or real?
Tell em what’s the difference
I been on a mission, I been on a mission
‘Cause I know you need love
I know you need it
I know you need love
I know you need it
I know you need love
You can’t get enough
