Tamar Braxton
4 The Love of You
[Intro: Solé]
Damn
At one point, I thought I couldn't live without you
But now, I don't how the fuck I lived with you, you know I'm sayin'?
But I just take that shit as a lesson learned
What goes around, comes around
And yours is comin' muh'fucker, believe that

[Verse 1: Solé]
Nightmares of love gone wrong, got me writin' this song
Played it out, back in my mind and heart you used to belong
Rewind it back, thought it was nice when two became one
Bet you never thought Solé would turn and leave you with none
Woulda thought I gave you life, had me bent like a comma
Love turned to hate for fillin' my life with bullshit and drama
Played games, told me lies, steady pullin' these strings
Then put me up in fly ass cribs and had my flossin' them things
While you was runnin' wild, had me busy shoppin' and shit
Hittin' the clubs with my girls, wasn't no stoppin' a bitch
Throwin' bills like I'm Nikki, I was spendin' it fast
Yeah, money nice, but sure as hell don't make relationships last
Gave my all, did it all, tried to make sure it worked
While you ran the streets and even had me doin' your dirt
Dumb tricks and dumb skits I was pullin' for you
A dumb bitch and dumb shit I went through, for the love of you
[Chorus: Tamar Braxton]
You know, I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby

[Verse 2: Solé]
Woulda gave my life to save yours, n***a, push came to shove
A bullet with your name I'd change to mine, and n***a, that's love
Prayers that you'd be spared from wickedness that lived in the streets
And when them n***as you was beefin' with start bringin' the heat
I got involved in dumb shit that didn't involve me at all
Had bitches scratchin' up my car and then you havin' the gall
To say it wasn't your fault and that you wasn't to blame
Thought you would come home after drama, have me screamin' your name
Young and dumb, I took you back, pretendin' I couldn't see
You havin' babies on the side while you still fuckin' with me
Things was never right forever fight that's what we would do
Then I saw the light my game was tight from runnin' with you
You had me stressed out and thinkin' that it's time that I quit
So I wouldn't leave, had me believe I wasn't worth shit
It's crazy, now it amaze me, these affairs of the heart
I look back and realize it wasn't love from the start
[Chorus: Tamar Braxton]
You know, I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby

[Verse 3: Solé]
How things can change, one day infatuated, washin' your drawers
Another day, it's screams and fightin' dishes, breakin' on walls
Walk in relationships, I'm sane thinkin' that you were too
A year later, I'm fuckin' crazy, throwin' glasses at you
Then scratchin' up yo car, I take it far, I'm cuttin' your tires
Don't understand it, why my girl, the L, was steady playin' wit fire
You turned psychotic, you got it, in this sick relationship
I'm tryna run you off the road, you and that broke-down bitch
I'm too fly for that shit, I'm lookin' back in disgust
The nights I cried, the times you lied I blowed away with a gust
Things I did for your love, they was never returned
Gave all the jewelry to my moms and then your pictures I burned
You can't turn no little boy into no grown ass man
So change yo' game and get it tight, if that's your previous plan
Boots was made for walkin', finally learned what life was about
Pulled it together, grabbed my Gucci boots and stepped the fuck out, I'm gone
[Chorus: Tamar Braxton]
You know, I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
I didn't wanna live without you, baby
Never thought I would throw your love away
Now I'm gone and you're lonely, it's a shame
What I did for the love of you, baby
