[Chorus]
I gave you flowers, but you never planted seeds
I give you time and spend it, you think that it’s free
I gave you diamonds with a wedding and a ring
You fell in love with them and never really married me
Your rainbow never leads to a pot of gold
No point of getting you a house if you can’t turn it to a home
I’m tired of getting everything you want, I’m breaking free
I can’t give you what you want, but I can give you what you need

[Verse 1]
Unrealistic expectations is what you have and what I’m done chasing

You play your cards, I grant you patience
You showed your hand and now I’m done waiting
You always cry when I don’t buy
Your fireworks are like the fourth of july
I gave you wings and now you fly
And claim I changed and I’m not your type
Fool me once if you do it again
I’ll pay the price with common sense
Your thin ice pushed me right to the edg
irl, this ain’t love if there ain’t no respect

[Chorus]
I gave you flowers, but you never planted seeds (But you never planted seeds)
I give you time and spend it, you think that it’s free (You think that it’s free)
I gave you diamonds with a wedding and a ring (And a ring)
You fell in love with them and never really married me (Really married me)
Your rainbow never leads to a pot of gold (Pot of gold)
No point of getting you a house if you can’t turn it to a home (Turn it to a home)
I’m tired of getting everything you want, I’m breaking free (I’m breaking free)
I can’t give you what you want, but I can give you what you need

[Verse 2]
No more shopping sprees or spa trips with your friends
No more swiping my card, watching hollywood stars
Trying to keep up with all of the trends

No more male friends, I can’t stand those guys
Who fake and try to pretend like they wouldn’t touch on ya
If given the chance to take my place and get you out your pants
I’m praying for us to make it through rainy days
I made a vow, my commitment will never change
A happy life is a choice that you gotta make
’cause happiness comes from giving
Not what you take, don’t wanna hurt you
Just need you to understand
That picture-perfect life they’re posting is fake on your instagram
Stop buying tickets to their circus, comparing what your worth is
I’m breaking these chains off my feet and chasing purpose

[Chorus]
I gave you flowers, but you never planted seeds (But you never planted seeds)
I give you time and spend it, you think that it’s free (You think that it’s free)
I gave you diamonds with a wedding and a ring (And a ring)
You fell in love with them and never really married me (Really married me)
Your rainbow never leads to a pot of gold (Pot of gold)
No point of getting you a house if you can’t turn it to a home (Turn it to a home)
I’m tired of getting everything you want, I’m breaking free (I’m breaking free)
I can’t give you what you want, but I can give you what you need
