[Intro]
|
Listen up ma I got something to tell you
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
Theres no kiss from you when I'm leavin in the moring
|
Theres no roses for you when I know I hurt your feelings
|
Don't know what happened to us girl I never saw it comin
|
How did love go down hill
|
I think I know why cheatin meant fear
|
|
[Brige 1]
|
I hit the bar by a drink
|
Sippin slow just to think
|
That a star would think go cheat
|
She said it looks like you need a friend
|
The lonely girl is knocking let me in
|
We can leave in delay
|
Take my mind off this pain
|
Do golden things in the mariot suite
|
Tell wifey that I might be workin
|
Hope I never have to say I lied
|
|
[Chorus]
|
To keep my six
|
To keep my house to still be here to work things out
|
To find some way babe
|
To make it up to you
|
Thats why I lied
|
To keep your health
|
To keep your kin
|
To still be here to raise our kids
|
To keep my ring babe I couldn't tell the truth
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
I'm so nervous these days
|
Got a feelings she'll be calling
|
I know hurt is on the way
|
When I dream of angels falling
|
Theres no perfect way to say
|
That my values to you were brokin
|
Who is that on the phone (hello)
|
Let me explain before you go
|
|
[Bridge 2]
|
I hit the bar by a drink
|
Sippin slow just to think
|
That a star would think go cheat
|
She said it looks like you need a friend
|
The lonely girl is knocking let her in
|
Whatever no delay
|
Take my mind off this pain
|
Do golden things on the mariot suite
|
I know I said that I was working late
|
But you found out today I lied
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
From the moment I heard you say you leavin (to go)
|
It was the words I though couldn't happen fa sho
|
I'm already missin your lovin and laughter
|
The moring after
|
It's not a whole with out you here
|
I swear I learn my lesson babe
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Outro]
|
Strickly for the ladies
|
My black sistas
|
Strickly for the ladies
|
