[Intro]
My baby don't mess around 'cause he loves me so
And this, I know for sure

(I know, I sound bitter, I know I sound... hateful)
(But you don't understand)

[Verse 1]
Damn, I tried to take my life at twenty-one
I put the liquor in my body, popped a pill, and then I grabbed a gun
I cocked the pistol back and put it to my head, I wanted nothing, but some peace, and for you to pay for what you done

Look, I know, it's selfish, you don't get it, but I can't forget it
You went and cheated and got pregnant, then you played the victim
You told my family that I abused you, what the fucks the reason?
You did your best to try and ruin me with sеcrets

We know the truth, you livе a lie, never once abused you
You told your family I ain't shit and all I did was use you
I guess you hurt me back, but I know that's what you're used to
But I'm man enough to say, that it was killing me to lose you

Look, I tried explaining how I feel to you
Tied our bind, and did my best, I tried to heal through you
You're running circles in my head until I'm dead, I guess the love was only me, and the love wasn't real to you
[Chorus]
I finally understand
I know you left, but since then, I'm a better man
I finally understand
I know you left, but since then, I'm a better man

[Verse 2]
Look, I can't forget the night I called you, it still haunts me
I went home and burned our pictures, 'cause it taunts me
I looked at you when we was happy and when you want me
I never knew, that, chasing dreams and this is what it cost me

My friends called, I found the truth, and I just couldn't believe it
They said you're pregnant with a kid and with the man you cheat with
I found out by myself, it ripped my heart in pieces
I fucking hate you, swear to God, but you're still my weakness

I never thought that loving you would ever cause me pain
My momma seen me yesterday, she said I'm not the same
I got a picture and my grandma's are still in the frame
I walked past, and I could tell, that, I'm just not the same

[Outro]
I'm not the same man I was
I'm not the same man, the one you used to love
I'm not the same man that drowns his self in drugs
I should find some peace of mind, instead, I keep it bottled up
