wow.

Someone has already posted the lyrics to it. They started 20 days ago. Possibly by a collaborator, Stephen Niday

Edit, he's a transcription staffer:

Rolling Stone spoke with Stephen Niday, Genius.com's top-ranked expert on Kanye West, who spent three years painstakingly annotating West's lyrics on the site under the moniker "streetlights" before being hired by Genius as a transcription staffer last year.

his Twitter profile describes him as:

"A Thousand Ways:"

[Verse 1]
Cold, lonely house
There ain't no one around
Said you'd take me out
You left me sittin' here
Got my head down
Seems unnormal now
Should've seen the signs
You ran out of excuses

[Chorus]
Cause you
You said you won't be playin' games anymore
You said you loved me in a thousand ways
It's only been ten days and you've already changed
You said you loved me, you said you loved me
Love ain't goin' our way, so why should I stay?
It's only been ten days and you've already changed
You said you loved me, you said you loved me
[Post-Chorus]
I'm breakin' out, yeah I'm breakin' out
Said I'm breakin' out, now I'm breakin' out
Said I'm breakin' out, oh I'm breakin' out
Said I'm breakin' out

[Verse 2]
Silly old me, I was breakin' down
Thought I couldn't breathe without you here, but now
I'm feelin' so free
I'm not wastin' no more energy
Or cryin' over nothin'

[Chorus]
Cause you
You said you won't be playin' games anymore
You said you loved me in a thousand ways
It's only been ten days and you've already changed
You said you loved me, you said you loved me
Love ain't goin' our way, so why should I stay?
It's only been ten days and you've already changed
You said you loved me, you said you loved me

[Bridge]
You could be lovin' me
You could be holdin' me
A little bit too late, no time for your mistakes
I'll be on my way
You could be kissin' me
Oh and now you're missin' me
No more yesterday, you lost somethin' great
What else can I say?

[Chorus]
Cause you
You said you won't be playin' games anymore
You said you loved me in a thousand ways
It's only been ten days and you've already changed
You said you loved me, you said you loved me
Love ain't goin' our way, so why should I stay?
It's only been ten days and you've already changed
You said you loved me, you said you loved me

[Outro]
Say you love me, baby
Say you love me

This song appears on MF8's sophomore album tracker page.

Thousand Ways” by Lawrence Brandon Ball, Haley Reinhart, Frank David Stallworth

So it's been around for a while.

[Miguel]

Maybe it surfaced because it's being shopped around?

Frank Stallworth has a writing credit on "My Cake," along with Mynority (Jose Lopez and Fabian Ordorica,)... per a post I made in June 2014.

Ariana Grande x Mariah Carey - Loverboy Baby (Mashup)
Haley Reinhart - A Thousand Ways
Luke James - Spending The Night Alone (Adrian Marcel Demo)
Phoebe Ryan - Stup1d
Rachel Platten - Bright Star
Throttle - Money Maker (feat. Lunchmoney Lewis Aston Merrygold)
Lady Gaga feat. Azealia Banks - Red Flame

I did a quick search of the Ariana Grande/Mariah Carey and Lady Gaga/Azealia Banks songs and found they were leaked tracks.

I then searched the news and found an article about...

Two new songs off of Britney Spears' ninth studio album, Glory, were allegedly leaked Wednesday morning (August 10) on streaming site Daily New Jams.

Ariana Grande/Mariah Carey and Lady Gaga/Azealia Banks don't appear to be on the same label, so that's not the likely source (I checked because I was looking for an indication Haley might have been signed with one).

Anyway, it seems likely Genius.com checks the Daily New Jams site for new songs.

I would guess it was being shopped around, getting into a lot of hands and somebody leaked it.

I LOVE ITTTTTT

[XAtlantic]

I LOVE ITTTTTT

Me too!!!!! Lots !!!!

((Imo it has the sound of a song that might stick around rather than fade after a few weeks.))

That does sound like a 5H song. Could work for Selena/Demi/Ariana too.

I could see this as a pop smash. It would fit all the above mentioned artists, but I really hear it as an Ariana song the most.

By the way. Haley sounds amazing on this song!
