I Don't Wanna Be

(album: Lessons In Love 2.0 - 2009)

I'm so sorry.

I'm tired of playing things like this.
You deserve more than that.
I'm looking at the man in the mirror,
I'm ashamed of who's staring back.
I don't wanna do you like this,
But her body be calling me.
And something makes me pick right up.
I'm fighting what's in front of me.

I don't wanna be that, be, be that.
Must be out of my mind, with that chick on the side,
In the passenger side of the ride.
I don't wanna be that, be that.
Can I be what you need? When I'm out in the streets?
Shoulda had you here with me.
I don't wanna be.

I'm not the type to stay at home all day.
When your down to know, time is what you need.
And I really wanna give you that
I love you, but strugglin, I can't
Be somethin that I ain't.
I wanna give you me,
But me be in the streets,
I like to be free.
Girl I need you with me.
So I cheat.
I try to fight this urge in me.
I need you to believe, cause

I don't wanna be that, be that.
Must be out of my mind, with that chick on the side,
In the passenger side of the ride.
I don't wanna be that, be that.
Can I be what you need? When I'm out in the streets?
Shoulda had you here with me.
I don't wanna be.

See, it's like I conflicted.
Cause I wanna be home with you,
With the girl I love,
But I still wanna kick it.
So fellas, if you feel what I'm feeling,
Sing along.

I don't wanna do you wrong,
I don't wanna do you wrong.
Promise that I'm coming home,
Promise that I'm coming home.
I need you girl don't leave me 'lone,
I need you girl please don't leave me 'lone.
Listen to the words of this song.

I don't wanna be that, be that
Must be out of my mind, with that chick on the side
In the passenger side of the ride.
I don't wanna be that, be that.
Can I be what you need? When I'm out in the streets?
Shoulda had you here with me.
I don't wanna be.

I don't wanna be. [until fade]
