I ain't gonna even front people

Went through a whole box of philly's on this one

Half a bottle of (voo?), woulda went through a whole bottle if my nigga boo ain't help me

Hold me up daddy

God

Gotta understand girl

Got me feeling like this...

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

Got me feeling... got me feelin like this...

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

Gotta hear me out

Yeah

I used to love her

Fuck it i still do

Cause love never die

But it can kill you

I pray to heavens sky, that it never kill me

It can get you real weak

But fuck it i'm a little g

My babygirl thought i was fuckin' every little freak

But darlin' i was raised by a woman, that ain't the real me

Still she managed to to spill out, a little me

Watched the doctors wipe the blood, from her little feet

And god damn she resembles me

She's my forgiveness for every sin and penalty livin' in me?

She should be livin' with me

But what am i to do, when her mother disagree

I do me but...

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

Got me feelin'... got me feelin'... got me feelin like this...

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

Got me feelin'... yah understand

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

You gotta know... you gotta know where i'm comin' from

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

I don't even know why i still care man

Yeah

I even took your hand, and walked down the aisle

It takes a strong man, to do that youngin woww

Look at your wedding band, that's 17 thou

But still she took the stand, now i pay for my child

And there comes divorce, mama i had to file

And as sad as it sounds, mama i'm happy now

And my other girl got a new baby daddy now

In retaliation her, she gettin' married now

And when i lay down to sleep, i feel like i have died

I can be carried out, and buried now

But hear me now, i am here and now

So appealin' till i disappear but still it got me feelin' like...

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

This real...

I'm in my early 20s, now all the ladies dig me

They like that baby face, they like the baby in me

That's why it's weezy baby, and please say the baby

You know that nigga baby, yah he done paid me crazy

I won a few source awards, i haven't won an a oscar

So i don't know how to act, like my sweet ain't sour

So i run to my mama

She let me smoke and fret bout my drama, then give me power

I'm a go and use all my knowledge and get acknowledged

If the pro tools? stop recording, i'm still ballin'

I know you probably don't care about where my heart is,

But just to let you know, it's where yours is...

But...

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

(how can something so right... go so wrong)

(how can something so right... go so wrong)
