L.I.F.E.

(альбом: The Original - 2003)

Once again standing here cryin out
Energy gone my insides dying out
Wishing you was dead or somewhere lying out
Every time you open ya mouth lies flying out
Remember when we first met you wit' ya crew
Me wit' my girls doing what we usually do
You wit' ya game coming at me asking my name
Knew it was love first sight you said it the same
Talked on the phone the whole night vibe feeling so right
Every step pointing to love the future so bright
Till this girl in my class told me she was pregnant
And that you was the dad
How she wasn't jealous of me or nothing I had
How you cheated on her several times and treated her bad
And as she was telling me that my whole world collapsed
Feeling like a fool still in love wit' you

[Chorus (2x):]
Mommy always told me 'bout life Life never plays to be nice
Tragedy's all in my life
Love is what destroyed my life, life

What tricks you gon' play now
Nothing you could say cuz everything is clear now
I can see where I made my mistakes
Staying home a good girlfriend gimmie a break
I'd be home alone calling you catching the shakes
Every minute till you call back adrealine raced
Left me hanging on my birthday when I stayed at ya place
You came home the next morning
I just stared in ya face
Knew where you was acting dumb it tore me apart
Took it out on your things put the key to your car
Felt like you had a knife all this pain in my heart
Deep down though still wishing we could restart
For a second I was on top swore I had the cream
Rude awakeing nothing come to sleepers but a dream
It's sinking in never really loved me and it seemed
What was I thinking I was only in my teens

[Chorus (2x):]
Mommy always told me 'bout life Life never plays to be nice
Tragedy's all in my life
Love is what destroyed my life, life

Nowadays when I see you I don't feel bad
Got a real love in my life you be a real dad
For once in ya life try doing something right
By now you should be ready to slow it down
Cuz you know what go 'round come back 'round
Even though it hurt to let you go I had to roll
A demon in disguise you was tryna take my soul
Couldn't make a move you was tryna take control
In a way I could only balme myself naive
I made the choice to be wit' you and no one else indeed
A picture in a broken frame upon the shelf indeed
Had to take a lil' time to know myself
Every now and then and then I start to reminisce wanting ya kiss
Even though I know it's dangerous
Every now and then I start to reminisce
For real even though I know it's so dangerous

[Chorus (4x):]
Mommy always told me 'bout life Life never plays to be nice
Tragedy's all in my life
Love is what destroyed my life, life

[Jaguar:]
What a chick gotta do to get some love?
What I gotta do to say enough is enough?

What's the point of being wit somebody, that only bring ya down
Goin 'round and 'round

[Chorus (till end):]
Mommy always told me 'bout life Life never plays to be nice
Tragedy's all in my life
Love is what destroyed my life, life
