The Reason

[Intro] Yeah Just let it run the whole way I ain't even gonna write it down I know the story You do too Uh, I tried to make you smile I tried to make you laugh Who would ever thought That you would be my past I thought you was my future I thought it was the end But like a fairy tale, it was all pretend I loved you like I'm supposed to I tried my best to show you How I can fly high and fight the haters off like Goku You said you didn't know dude I dropped it, I'm mad cool Until he got on Facebook Describing all your tattoos Now I'm mad at that dude When really it was you Before I met you, you had a dude up at my school You told me that the reason that you didn't say the truth Is because you didn't want me to think ?? was you Or that you was a ho That's cool, I understand I slipped up in my past That don't mean I'm not your man Let's fall into amnesia And worry about us Relationships ain't shit If they never based on trust My little sister's six And she started to adore you Every night calling on my cell asking for you I knew I found the one Though my mama wasn't sure I ain't even care I thought our love was pure Until that day came And I never would believe that you would leave Because your ex got drafted in the League See life is so funny I ain't make enough money He pulled up in that range And changed shit from sunny Into a nightmare, right here And it's probably not fair How you left me in the rain in Nike Airs I don't mean to be bitter But I feel like he was a quitter See life wasn't perfect But I was steady trying When your ass would sleep, see I was steady crying Praying to my grandma, asking her to save me I knew that you would leave If they ain't steady pay me I hit rock bottom, and you tried to help me out I told you one day, that we gon' get up off this couch You smiled up in my face Your eyes ain't believe I fell into addiction, alcohol and weed You telling all your friends That Shawn ain't shit You even told my best friends that Shawn ain't shit Shawn ain't say shit, I kept my mouth closed You went behind my back Befriended all my foes I'm having nightmares Cause I really did love you I even swore to God That I would place no one above you But now, I can't watch ESPN Without me thinking about him digging out your estrogen Your ex is then saying he gon' show me All this tough talk And he don't even know me I would never fight for a girl Who lays with a man With a motive, or a scheme, or a plan So bye bye, I wish you the best I would say success but success found me And you always on Twitter Trying to trend a topic about me I just let it go Get it from 'round me I got a new girl, funny thing-she found me And when my credit card blacker than Richard Roundtree All I ask is you don't try and lost and found me See you chose your life I hope that it works out in the end Maybe then we could end up as friends But until then We split at this fork in the road I'm done, nothing more should be told Nothing more is said Until the day I'm dead Make sure my mama's straight ain't got a mill like tread I hope that it was worth it Loving on the surface Cause even through my flaws My love is always perfect
