Don’t know when my nights became so complicated
Can’t recall my mornings
Ever being this faded
Maybe this is karma
Definition of jaded
Uh
This stays on my mind
This stays on my mind
Tryin to put a muzzle on my crazy feelings
One minute I’m cool
And then the next I’m trippin
No
With somebody new
I swear she don’t deserve this
Wasted all my time
She’s still on my mind
Do we build it up?
Build it up?
Just to let it wash away
Tell me did I lace you up
Lace you up
Just to watch you run away
Please
Tell me who, who’s getting all my love?
Love
Who’s getting all my love
Tell me who, who’s getting all my time
All of that used to be mine
Oh
Who did you teach what I taught you
Ooh oh ooh oh
Better not give him my nickname
I don’t like thinking about it
I swear that it’s wearing me down
No
But tell me, who
Who’s getting all of my
Who’s getting all of my
Residuals
Who
Who’s getting all of my
Who’s getting all of my
Residuals
Who
Who’s getting all of my
Who’s getting all of my
Residuals
Made it clear you didn’t wanna see the sequel
I was lying when I said the feeling’s mutual
No
It took some time to realize that we are different people
And love is blind
I see love is blind
Did we build it up
Build it up
Just to let it wash away
Tell me did I lace you up, lace you up
Just to watch you run away
Please tell me
Who
Who’s getting all my love
Who’s getting all my love
And tell me who
Who’s getting all my time (My time nah)
All of that used to be mine (Believe it)
Who did you teach what I taught you
Better not give him my nickname
I don’t like thinking about it
I swear that it’s wearing me down
No
So tell me
Who
Who’s getting all of my
Who’s getting all of my
Residuals
Who
Who
Reflecting on Emotional Aftermath
“Residuals” by Chris Brown delves into the lingering emotions that follow a breakup. The lyrics capture a sense of confusion and exhaustion, with the narrator struggling to move on from a past relationship. Brown’s introspective tone exposes a battle between trying to suppress feelings and being haunted by memories. The recurring question—“Who’s getting all of my residuals?”—emphasizes the pain of seeing someone else receive the affection, time, and unique connections once shared. The song’s candid storytelling about heartache and jealousy resonates with anyone who has grappled with letting go of a meaningful relationship.
