Jessica Lockwood - Act Like That (Single)
Jessica Lockwood
Published
An upbeat, snap-driven track with horns that give off an Amy Winehouse vibe, old-school, soulful, throwback. This track dives into the push-and-pull of fading relationships and unmet expectations but with energy and confidence. It’s about realizing your worth, letting go of one-sided effort, and moving forward with grace and power.
Verse 1
I initiate the plans
I start the conversations
When is the last you asked me how my life is
I know that life got busy but that isn’t an excuse to act like that (no not like that)
Please excuse my attitude
I can’t sit back and watch you
Act like that (act like that)
Verse 2
I always give too much
Never knowing when’s enough
Maybe I should learn when to just give up
I’ve had the worst kind take the best of me
And I am done with that (done with that)
Even when I sing the blues
I know that I still lose because you
Act like that (act like that)
Chorus
Did we get too busy or did we just outgrow our selves
Guess we’ll never know cause it’s been too long to tell
I swear the memories we had
Were enough to last
Guess I got the last laugh
Yeah it’s on me
Verse 3
It’s been 8 months now since I’ve heard from you
Try to reach out, no reply, what a surprise
I know we all got our own lives but that don’t mean that you can
Act like that (act like that)
Even after all this time, how could you go and act like that? (Act like that)
Chorus
Did we get too busy or did we just outgrow our selves
Guess we’ll never know cause it’s been too long to tell
I swear the memories we had
Were enough to last
Guess I got the last laugh
Yeah it’s on me
Instrumental
Verse 4
Now we’re all grown up
Families of our own
I’m really happy for you
Don’t get me wrong
But now I have a circle who will call me up without a reason (without a reason)
Even after all this time
You know that I’ll forgive you when you
Act like that
