When we first met you laughed at me
Who'd a known for 12 years you'd laugh with me
We started out as a group, told no lies we just spoke the truth
I used to cheer you on in the booth
We dreamed about cars that ain't have a roof
So I'mma fast forward to now
We in the industry now, look how it ruined us wow
Behind doors I'm the man
Calculated and I planned
What a shame, it took a split for them to know I was your man
Got so tired of hidin' it
Head high with no pride in it
Guess I wasn't cool enough cause in our pictures we hidin' it
Everytime it went south, I be sleepin' on the couch
Hotel room for one, thinkin' what is this about
I took the good with the bad
Always heated I was mad
In our pictures yeah we're smilin' but inside I'm feelin' sad
Did the good outweigh the bad or did the bad outweigh the good
You ain't do it all alone we took ourselves up out the hood
Yeah we made it on the rise ain't no green in my eyes
Cause we both went to sleep in the same bed of lies
Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you?
How can I trust you again when I'm not around you
But when I'm down and out and it's cold outside
Where were you?
And when you needed me I was always there
Now where are you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you?
Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you?
Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you?
Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you?
Yeah I was a backbone, a little caught up in the light
All I did was hold you down, before it all you was my wife
Real life behind the scenes, all I did was really help
To them you just a billboard, I cared about your health
I don't care about the wealth
I ain't care about your fame
I ain't care about no flawless VVS's in your chain
I ain't sayin' I'm the best, no one will love you like I did
12 years up in flames, thought you woulda had my kid
Year 3 got engaged, now we movin' out of rage
I ain't never think our book woulda ended on this page
Had to watch you kiss Nas and pretend it's all cool
Inside I was feelin' like a motherfuckin' fool
Life revolves around a bitch show me a man that won't cheat
Said I was overreactin' but you did like
Said I was overreactin' guess you did like
Did the good outweigh the bad or did the bad outweigh the good
You ain't do it all alone we took ourselves up out the hood
Yeah we made it on the rise ain't no green in my eyes
Cause we both went to sleep in the same bed of lies
Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you?

I ain't playin' tit for tat, I don't wanna pull you down
I'm not into circus acts and I don't even like clowns
I ain't even gonna front like I never watch your show
And I'm still your biggest fan and I don't need a front row
Yeah I know I'm not perfect, you was payin' all the bills
You remember what you told me when you wasn't on the pills?
If the shoe was on the other foot I'd make sure you're straight
I ain't playin' kiddy games and I ain't fallin' for the bait
Tell your momma, tell your brothers, I still love them like my own
I don't bother reachin' out because it's too close to home
But now we're not together I don't feel you wish the best
Can't believe we not friends, smh, what a mess
That's between me and you, it was always me and you
We ain't do this off opinions, it was only me and you
Then you let somebody new come and whisper in your ear
Didn't think he woulda told you that was my biggest fear
Did the good outweigh the bad or did the bad outweigh the good
You ain't do it all alone we took ourselves up out the hood
Yeah we made it on the rise ain't no green in my eyes
Cause we both went to sleep in the same bed of lies
