The Way Things Are

(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know ive got to leave from here
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know ive got to leave from here
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know I've got to leave from here
(ooh baby)
You know I gave up everything I knew to be with you
I said peace to my friends, and my family too
I put all my stuff in storage and I built up the courage
Cause I knew I was missing something inside that you nourished
Road from east to west coast with just under two g's
A suitcase full of clothes and my mpc
Confident I'd figure out something to make ends meet
Between the times we was making love and I was making beats
Bounce for a few hours to go handle some bizz
Couldn't wait to get back just to be with my wizz
Girl you took care of me, I'll always love you for that
But you never really trusted me, so **** you for that
I know I made a few mistakes before I gave you my heart
But once we were together I deserved a fresh start
It was usually after you had too much to drink
That I would hear the insecure and twisted **** that you think
And it hurts to walk away but I can't stand the distrust
So I pack my belongings and I'm catching this bus
Sure I'll see you again, I dont know when it will be
I thought I captured your love but now im setting it free
Its like..
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know ive got to leave from here
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know ive got to leave from here
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know I've got to leave from here
(ooh baby)
You know the story but this time I'll be gone longer than november
The schedule continues all the way untill next december
You wouldn't hold me up we discussed do you remember?
My suitcase full enough I got your poems flushing picture
I'm loyal as a doggie then other *****es sniff up
A call whoa whoa how much for international minutes?
My departure is a given
This life chose me, I can't complain I love how I'm living
But enough when I get back there'll be more luther spending
Might invest in a car but if not I'm still driven
Me and you could have children forever everyday building
I'm in it for the long haul but the music needs my attention
A blessing is what I'm wishing--before--I exit
We've been through thick and thin, this isn't hectic
If you leave Im'a object at your wedding
Love is stronger than pride but it is
Kept on drug intentionally kept on drifting
Don't go she threatened use the ill niner as a ill weapon
Didn't think twice, reached out, grabbed her hand and met her eyes
And let out this sentence
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know ive got to leave from here
(ooh baby) ooh baby I'm sorry
But you know ive got to leave from here
