Didn’t I blow your mind this time
Didn’t I blow your mind this time
You know what girl
It’s been awhile since I’ve talked to you on a track
Ten years is a long time
For you to just walk away
It couldn’t hold me down for too long, you know what I’m sayin’
I used to think I’d die without you
But now it’s funny, I’m so better off without you
Love withered like a flower, it just faded away
And now it’s long gone girl
You held me back for so long
Folded when the love got rough
With you there was no lookin’ up
Thought there was no givin’ up
But you and me was never us
There was you, there was me
Heartbreak in between
There was me, there was you
Our kids, our team, which is now just a ruined dream
Can’t believe we spent years blind, we just couldn’t see
So naïve to truly think that we was really meant to be
Thought you leavin’ would surely be the death of me
But down deep always knew that you was never right for me
Truthfully had to dig, reaching for the words to speak
Honesly, I cry so many times with nothing left inside
To let the past fly, slide
Couldn’t, wouldn’t let it die
Damn sure made you pay, and that’s no lie
A thousand apologies shorty
Ten years is a long time to spend with somebody
And since this is my story, I have to put it out there
But see I’m gonna bring ‘em to the present now
Cause since some things goin’ on
That have to be spoken about
And I’m gonna put it out there
Now see every day without my babies, cripples me
So it seems to me to justify the losses only to achieve my dreams
Too Much picked me up, dust it off, and now I’m finally free
Finally free from ball and chains, spread my wings, I’m doin’ me
Me and you made mistakes and me and you was both to blame
Now we at the present day, split has been a year today
I’m so amazed that such little time how much has changed
Rearranged my life to get far away from thoughts of you
You with the next man, I’m happy that your movin’ on
The cards been dealt, but shorty, careful with the hand you play
He harms my kids in any way, for him you need to be afraid
At his wake a serenade, head from the shoulder blades
If you with him, then I’m out the way
But when it comes to them, I’m not for play
He if loves and treats my babies right, believe we could all be friends
He does my babies wrong, eye for eye
Get at mine, I get at yours, and that’s no lie
Didn’t I blow your mind this time
That’s no lie baby girl
I’m not trying to Eminem you or nothin’
As the mother of my children, I got nothing but love for you
You’re still my best friend, we’ve been through too much together
But now I’m gonna take you to the future
And I got some things I need to say to my kids
So when they older, they understand
No matter what my future holds
It comes to us that chapters closed
Heart long been cold, music healed my soul
To my kids, I apologize, I couldn’t balance both
So it best daddy goes, I know it hurts without me home
I know it’s selfish but I have to know if I give it all
To the top could I go, could I blow, once was close
But from a distance have to watch you grow
Not having my babies is the sacrifice I feel the most
And where does time go, it’s lonely on this broken road
Different city, different show, trying to keep myself afloat
Never losing hope, with my back against the ropes
Cause losing what you love the most, that pain is not a fucking joke
Any man can be a father, takes a man to be a dad
And I’m trying to be a better one than the one I never had
So every bar I spit, best believe I spit for them
Now I’m here to change my stars for the story to have a happy ending
