Bending the time won’t make it right
Why are still calling my line?
Now this just won’t do
Trying to get through, to the other side
Yes, yes, yes
You know I tried my very best, I didn’t give you nothing less, yes
But why is it when I’m stressed about things, girl, you forget
That I need what you need and that’s little more TLC, yes
Tell me wouldn’t you agree, yes?
Maybe we rush things, yes
I don’t wanna make no scene, but yes I’m hurting (I’m really hurting now)
If he swear you wanna be, I guess you deserve him (yes, you deserve him)
And you don’t need no stress from me, I guess
I should just leave, I guess
Yes
Bending the time won’t make it right
Why are still calling my line?
Now this just won’t do
Trying to get through, to the other side
Yes, yes, yes
I know you tried your very best, you didn’t give me nothing less (nah, nah)
I admit I made a mess and when it seems I learned my lesson
I just did things that keep you guessing, well there’s no more guessing
You just gotta see my side, please try (please try no)
I know you felt weak for a while (for a while), but now
I see why, I know why you wanted to keep me around
But I don’t like to see you down
I wanna be the reason you smile
Now you leaving the house, ah
Now she said
She said
She said
Trying to making through to the other side
Now this just won’t do
Trying to making through to the other side
Just won’t do
Make it through
Other side
Make it through
Side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Try to see it from my side
I see yours from my eyes
Exploring the Emotional Landscape of “One Sided”
Bryson Tiller’s “One Sided” is a heartfelt reflection on the struggles of communication and balance in a relationship. The lyrics delve into the pain of feeling misunderstood and the frustration of trying to bridge emotional gaps. Tiller voices the internal conflicts of both partners, revealing moments of vulnerability and regret. The repeated lines about bending time and trying to reach “the other side” emphasize the desire for mutual understanding, yet the reality that sometimes, love alone cannot mend everything. The track skillfully captures the cyclic nature of relationships, where both parties question their roles and ultimately seek peace, even if it means letting go.
