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 about 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 XL black shirt, but still sweating out the back
I had a thing with her
TV shows after school I would binge with her
First girl I held her hand, the first girl I bought dinner
First girl I met the momma, butterflies in every picture I was
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 amazing (amazing)
Showing up to her place like My girl's bound 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 poking fun at me for blushing (blushing)
I went viral for the first time so rumors started to move
Token has a famous friend, Token might leave school soon
Till 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, confirming 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
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 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 thinking the four other people were trolling me
The fifth person who told me 'bout it my whole thinking reversed
The eight person who told me 'bout it said it heard it directly from her
But she denied it all the same
I started to feel like I'm in one of her plays
I never hit her up after and she never hit me up (me)
I left school soon after trying to 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 fucking with everyone
Tell me why
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
Know I think I do
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 that'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 around 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 when I get feelings for her
Tell me why
How could you do that to me?
