[Verse 1:]
I grew up a wonder year
She was same by the bail
I was boys in the hood, She was ATL
Used to sell weed to our rommate, that's how we met
Ol' girl didn't smoke, but she had jokes on deck
No disrespects, it's just the way it was
She claim cause' I was broke and always say cause'
I was kind of always saying shawty and y'all
She smile everytime I did my little Southern draw
Calls became frequent, we hang out on the weekend
Start to feelin' like, she's the one I've been seekin'
Didn't take it far, third base, at most
Never seal the deal, but always came close
I knew that if I hit it, I would have to stay commited
I was young, 21, man I just wasn't with it
Knew what was comin' and you can't run from it
Ain't no feelings that strong between man and a woman.
[Chorus:]
She said she wanted more than a friendship
But I wasn't one in the bed
I said I wanted friends with benefits
But I was only trying to pretend
I didn't want you (need you [x2])
Realy want to make you mine
I would never mislead you
But then, how I treat you
But girl, you got to give me some time
[Verse 2:]
So, the first time we did it, it was aight
But soon I was creepin' to her room every night
Somethin' like magic, I felt I had to have it
Just to right fix, to kick my chick habbit
You know it's always better, when you're lovers and close friends
It start to get deep, I kind of feel closed in
I went out and made a stupid mistake
I stop'd returning calls, went on a few dates
Ofcourse I got back to her, I knew she'd be hurt
But she didn't even trip and that made me feel worse
She shoved me all the love, when I did the dirt
Now I'm feelin' like I'm the scum on the earth
She left for break and didn't leave her number
I thought about her every single day that summer
I s**er, for try to keep it on the under
Said next time I see her, I'm a tell her that I love her
[Chorous]
[Verse 3:]
When the wall was stooden the way I was waitin for the nexy semester to begin
The very first day, I ran up to campus and ran onto one of her friends
I made small talk I didn't want to seem blame
I too anxious, but when I said her name
The tears came, she started to break down
I could still see the look on her face now
Through the tears I could hear "drunk driver", "crash", "accident"
The word "no survivors"
She was tryin' to continioue to describe it, but just couldn't take it
And she ran off crying
Lyin' if I said I wasn't feel for regret
I cryed for three hours sittin' down on them steps
But even know you're gone
Your memory lives on
And for all I did wrong
I dedicate this sing
To my first love...
This is for my first love
