Following the success of her early summer House track release, "Hate 2 Luv" feat. Durand Bernarr, Multifaceted Milwaukee-based singer, songwriter, producer & musician B~Free sets sights on her next single & music video, “This Could Be Us.”
With dreamy synths, guitar & melodies supported by 808s & a buoyant groove, Free’s self-penned & produced track marries the sounds of contemporary R&B with that of the mid-2000s, while paying homage to the common struggles of dating in the Millennial age.

lyrics
(verse 1)
2:30 in the mornin’
& I think I’m goin crazy (crazy)
(cuz I been, I been)
Cuz I been drinkin,’ I been thinkin’
How you steady playin’ in my face
All day (because)
& I’m recountin’ all the moments
Made me think I was your baby,
Or at least a maybe
But now our feelings all in it (in it)
& you only know to pull away
Always pullin’ away from me
Started off on top
Everyday amazing
Now you wanna stop
‘Cause everything is changing
Got me all in my feelings, but you didn’t wanna
But you pull me up when you get down, & tell me come over
I can’t keep on lovin’ you one foot out the door
& I can’t keep goin’ all in if you ain’t ready for more
You just another situationship I need to let let go
‘Cause I ain’t playin these games no more
(Hook)
I sent a meme bout how this could be us
But you don’t get it
‘Cause you’d rather be on that stupid stuff
Than stay committed
& I wanna think about givin’ up
Just say “forget it”
Then you call me anytime,
Playin’ back & forth with my mind
I don’t know why you be killin’ us
Then say you didn’t
Got me wonderin’ if I’m good enough
‘Cause you ain’t wit it
& I’m contemplating ‘bout givin’ up
Just say “forget it”
If you won’t give me your time,
Need to back up off of my line - yea, yea
(verse 2)
I don’t talk on the phone, but I do it for you
Hit me up, out the blue, tellin’ me to come through
I pull up, we show out, when we do what we do
& for a minute I’ll be thinkin’ that we cool
But you just keep on
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
Actin’ like you crazy
(Frontin’ everytime that you say)
You don’t wanna be my baby
Can’t believe, can’t believe, I believed you for a moment
Now you got me open & hopin for nothin’
You so ignant
Now you wanna be different
‘Cause you want everything that comes with bein with me
But with no commitment
Boy, you can’t be serious
Tryna act all mysterious
But I can see right through you ain’t ready
For my experience (hey, hey)
I can’t keep on lovin’ you one foot out the door
& I can’t keep goin’ all in if you ain’t ready for more
& I don’t know why you wanna be so content with bein’ alone
But I ain’t playin’ this game no more
(Hook)
I sent a meme bout how this could be us
But you don’t get it
‘Cause you’d rather be on that stupid stuff
Than stay committed
& I wanna think about givin’ up
Just say “forget it”
Then you call me anytime,
Playin’ back & forth with my mind
I don’t know why you be killin’ us
Then say you didn’t
Got me wonderin’ if I’m good enough
‘Cause you ain’t wit it
& I’m contemplating ‘bout givin’ up
Just say “forget it”
If you won’t give me your time,
Need to back up off of my line - yea, yea
(bridge)
Ohhhhh,
I gotta let you go
But you won’t leave me alone, nooo
You steady leadin’ me on, yea
Sayin’ you will & you won’t , yea
Ohhhhh,
Yea, don’t wanna play these games no more (no more, no more)
You turnin’ me off, turnin’ me on
Playin’ me out, I gotta go
But you can read it in my last post
(Hook)
I sent a meme bout how this could be us
But you don’t get it
‘Cause you’d rather be on that stupid stuff
Than stay committed
& I wanna think about givin’ up
Just say “forget it”
Then you call me anytime,
Playin’ back & forth with my mind
I don’t know why you be killin’ us
Then say you didn’t

Just say “forget it”
If you won’t give me your time,
Need to back up off of my line - yea, yea
(Outro Hook)
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
Actin’ like you crazy
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
So you can’t be my baby
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
If you won’t give me your time,
Need to back up off of my line - yea, yea
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
Actin’ like you crazy
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
So you can’t be my baby
(Runnin,’ runnin,’ runnin’ away)
If you won’t give me your time,
Need to back up off of my line - yea, yea
