Lyrics

Tell me why

How could you do that to me?

Tell me why

How could you do that to me?

Here's a story that I never thought that I would tell (Tell)

About me and a girl, sophomore year, pure as hell (Hell)

I never talked about it, not 'cause how she'll be affected

Truthfully, I don't care, I was more worried 'bout myself

First girl I ever liked that finally liked me back (Liked me back)

Geeked out when I heard about that (Right)

Still a virgin, scared to talk to girls

Rockin' a double X black T-shirt

But still sweatin' out the back

I had a thing with her

TV shows after school

I would binge with her

First girl I held the hand of

The first girl I bought dinner

First girl I met the mom of

Butterflies in every picture I would see

You should've felt my heart go (Yeah)

I never knew what to say

So she started every convo (Yeah)

She had more experience

She showed me things to prove it (Yeah)

First girl who ever found interest in my music

She had a passion too, she liked to act

She was amazin' (Amazin')

Showing up to her plays like

"My girl's 'bout to be famous" (That's right)

We hit some parties too

She was a drinker and I wasn't (I wasn't)

Kissing me in front of my friends and

Pokin' fun at me for blushin' (Blushin')

I went viral for the first time

So rumors started to move

"Token has a famous friend, Token might leave school soon"

'Til this one rumor came next

"Last night, I heard Token forced a girl to—"

Tell me why

How could you do that to me?

The first person who asked me 'bout it

I thought that he was playin'

The second person who asked me 'bout it

I started replayin'

The night I had with my girl

Confirmin' everything was normal

Fourth person who asked me 'bout it

I started lookin' for her

Ain't no way she tellin' lies

You know how rumors travel

When your name is on the rise (Uh-huh)

Little internet fame, but I was the shyest (Shyest)

Confrontation wasn't my move, but I had to

I found her in the gymnasium by the athletes

When she saw me, she smiled at me

I was confused, before I could confront

She ran up to me and she gave me a hug

I told her about the rumor and

I asked her where it's from

She replied, "What the fuck? Why would I say that?"

I felt stupid, I said, "Sorry"

I walked away thinkin' them four other people were trollin' me

The fifth person who told me 'bout it

My whole thinkin' reversed

The eight person who told me 'bout it

Said they heard it directly from her

But she denied it all the same

I started to feel like I'm attendin' one of her plays

I never hit her up after and she never hit me up (Me)

I left school soon after tryna get my career up (Uh-huh)

The more stories I heard

I knew damn well she was the author

My friend was like, "She must just be jealous of the spotlight"

"Jealous you gettin' established" (Yeah)

"She wanna be an actress" (Right)

"Maybe she just method acting" (Uh-huh)

I told him he was trippin', I had barely built a buzz

Half the town took her side

I stopped fuckin' with everyone

How could you do that to me?

My intro to relationships left me with bad blood

Maybe that's why I'm so anti-relationship, I don't trust

I told my girl the story before I took out the pen

She said she's not surprised and

I didn't know what she meant

The man that gets commitment don't commit

'Cause he don't know who he's committed to

And I'm not proud of that, but it's my experience

Honestly, not being tied down helped my career and shit

So I'm not even trippin', I hope that girl does theater more

'Cause she good at it, just don't do it 'round me no more

I'm sure she don't imagine she had big impact on me before

But she probably the reason I don't trust who I get feelings for

How could you do that to me?
