Everybody got that one
they fell in love wit, and then drifted away from
girl I gave you my heart, my spirit and then some
gettin' sick of you insistin', a nigga ain't deliver
uhhhh I beg to differ, was helpin' out yo sister
she turned around diggin' me like I ain't never missed ya
girl I got some blisters, workin' til my hands raw
tryna keep it together, microscopin' my damn flaws
take a break from the, pointin' fingers distributin' blame shit
gotta say, you done changed, this really ain't the same chick
I met, in '97...I might be callin' up the reverend
lookin' like you 'bout to snap at any second
never learnin' my, lesson
'cause I kept runnin' back to the same
woman that left me hangin' without a jacket in rain
a triflin', backstabbin' type of chick
wit a vendetta for decent niggas, in my defense
girl I made you
Your ex-boyfriend was beatin' you, remember that shit?
girl you always had a knack for attractin' them half-wits
I took you away from all of that, he was callin' actin'
like you was his property, it's me that had him fallin' back
I guess you losin' yo memory in the short-term
spreadin' lies about how I treated you, well its yo turn
dig this, so far I been complicit wit the ignance
but at this point I'm considerin' switchin' phone digits up
you on some Robin Givens, tried to kick me in my nuts
keyin' niggas cars up, 'cause you thinkin' yo heart crushed
my tolerance, is higher than most, but common sense
is tellin' me I need to get out this environment
domestic violence is nothin' new to me
grew up in a, broken home, seeing everything you see as a kid
now I'm removed, two parents had to choose one
I ain't tryna repeat, what the hell is you talkin' bout?
I couldn't stop you from walkin' out, don't be comin' back
wit that, I forgive you bullshit, let's talk it out
huh, I don't want no parts of somebody that doesn't trust me
keep leavin' them messages about how much you love me
now this shit up on a different level, same game
and you actin' like I switched up, girl I ain't changed
always been the one, you called over when you needed a shoulder
but girl I'm done, only memories remain 'cause it's over
Can I flex real quick?
bet you mad 'cause a nigga livin' good
gated community while you still up in the hood
social network bashin', that everlastin'
hate that you got for me, I ain't never understood but
it wasn't all bad, we was hoopin' at the park
holdin' hands n all of that, I put it down after dark
then you wanna snap, sayin' I can't get you back
I don't want you though, maybe now I can finally relax
