Too Late For Us (feat. Phonte)

[Intro] [Phonte Speaking] Yes yes. Let's go.

You know how like, it's always...

They talkin' 'bout it's always the one that got away or whatever

When you lose that one, that shit be hurtin like a motherfucker bro,

I ain't gonna lie to you

This is what it be like, it be like this...

[Verse One] [Phonte singing]

I spent all weekend, sleepin', on her side of the bed

Cause I had nothing to do (She packed her shit and now she's gone)

Called every number in my cell phone

Just so I could try to find a replacement for you (But everybody's blown up on a Saturday night) They say that miserly loves company

But I don't agree cause I'm all alone (All alone by your God damn self again)

If I had a canvas I would paint a million colors in her name

But I'll put 'em in this song (Maybe she'll come back to me)

Let it go

[Chorus]

Never want water till the well is dry

Never want stars till there ain't no sky

Never know when and you don't know why

But don't say it's too late for us

Never want to sail till your ship is gone

Never want a house till you can't go home

But you and me baby girl we can't go wrong

So don't say that it's too late for us

[Verse Two] [Phonte rapping]

Hey, it's been a moment

And you're lookin' like a tenderoni

I wrote this song for you and you can sing along if

You want to, there's somethin' about you,

I can't put my finger on it

I don't know why we put ourselves through unnecessary stress and Pain and then get inebriated Just so we can try to sooth and alleviate it

But when we got a good thing, can't appreciate it

Just like the chick I had on my team

Was everything on my wish list

Spend the holidays, Valentines and Christmas

Now I'm in the club, lookin' at other broads like, "I gave up home cooked meals for this shit?

I gave up all them back rubs for this bitch?"

The whole damn thing is bass ackwards

This is the last chapter

Break up to make up like Max Factor Done, came to my senses now

I'm right back at ya Let's go

[Chorus]

[Verse Three] [Tiye Phoenix]

Packed my suitcase Today

To move away

I couldn't stay It's the right thing to do (Leave his ass alone)

So much has changed, quite pretender

There's still a chance we could be friends

Try to see if from my point of view (Try to see it)

Admit things aren't the same

It's not your fault and I'm not to blame

Really no one's right and no one's wrong (It's just the way it is)

Relationships get rough

Sometimes love just ain't enough

To keep it goin' strong

No choice but to move on you'll see

Never miss your water till your well runs dry

Too many nights sat alone to cry

That's a fact that we can't deny

It's too late for us

Nothing left for me to do

But to move on away from you

I know you love me and I love you too

But It's too late for us

[Tiye Phoenix rapping]

Put all the talk to rest

Such an awful mess

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, see how dark it gets?

You lost the best, not a spark is left

You had love but often slept

Like a narcolep

Lonely nights I often wept

Now I'm takin' smarter steps

Everybody plays a fool, I played that part I guess

We had to give it a (try)

Couldn't deny we was livin' a (lie)

Too fly to listen to (Tiye)

Now you missin' my aaaah

No need to ice grill me baby, keep your chilly vibe

You're old news baby,

Angelina/Billy Bob Way before Brad

Can't play your doormat I've cover status, supermodel

Warn your favorite sport's mag

Givin' me the fifth degree

Tellin' me how you missin' me

Wallowing in your misery

You awoke with an epiphany

You forced my hand, divorce is the plan I'm past

Main Source Lookin' At The Door, the door slammed Damn

[Chorus]
