Brother Ali - Walking Away lyrics

[Intro:] I'll go ahead and wager that you never listen to another song of mine I can't say I blame you either 'Cause if you made records you ain't gonna catch me listening to that sh** But if you do I just want you to know, I didn't make this to hurt you God knows, you done hurt enough Just... I don't know, try to make some real sh**, you know [Verse 1:] Bye, you ain't never gonna see me again If I can help it, little fellow take it easy Fresh out of forced tears, kisses and hugs You about to lose the company your misery loves Ain't never did nothing but try to k** your disease At least help the symptoms, instead you infected me I'm not the kind of man to draw a line in the sand If you gotta draw at all then it's time for you to scram P.S., you can keep all this sh** And hang around your broke friends and call yourself rich The struggling I did with you was all for nothin' It was never enough, your heart set on suffering I admit that I was weak in the beginnin' I wanted someone to need me instead of a friendship I didn't think I deserved a true partner So I transferred the arrangement I had with my mama [Bridge:] Since you never listen to a word I ever said Maybe seeing this door slam will get it through your head I don't love you, I don't think I ever did And if you hadn't tried to k** me, I'd stayed for the kid [Chorus: x2] There's nothin' more for us to say Got my mind made up, I'm walking away Sometimes we just outgrow the role that we play Hope you find a happy ending to you story someday [Verse 2:] Round and round and round we used to go I never f**ed you right or made enough bread, I know From such a ba*tard, and mistreated you so Then how is it you're loosing your mind to see me go? Truth be told, I held you together For all them years, and I cheated on you never Defended your honor, took in your mama When she tried to rehab and had you back through the drama You got a sick stone under your ribs Where a heart is suppose to live Sick, twisted and vindictive, with your windows dim Baby, in that wicked hard bowl, fish, you must shiver How you threaten to k** the most precious Gift that you'll ever be blessed with? Unless you're twisted, demented and depressed as sh** And alone 'cause you faithfully slayed your friendships [Bridge:] Since you never listen to a word I ever said Maybe seeing this door slam will get it through your head You don't love me, I don't think you ever did And if you hadn't tried to k** me, I'd stayed for the kid [Chorus: x2] There's nothin' more for us to say Got my mind made up, I'm walking away Sometimes we just outgrow the role that we play Hope you find a happy ending to you story someday
