[Verse 1:]
I'm leavin' cause I'm tired
Of this kind of life we live
You're contempt
Not ambitious enough
It's takin' its toll

Money is low
You're relaxin'
Actin' like nothin' is happenin'
Watching my friend's progress
It is killin' me slow

You're not the same man
I met three years ago
I can't believe I've fallen
To the dream you've sown

Your drinkin's gettin' worse
I can feel it comin' outta your clothes
I'm not a gold digger, n***a
But I expect more

[Chorus:]
I've been hustled
Been played a fool
I never loved anyone
The way I loved you
I was your muscle
Now it's time to let go

I been hustled
Played for a fool
If you with another girl
Tolerate what I been through

I was your muscle
Now it's time to let go
I've been hustled

[Verse 2:]
I'm used to playing it safe
Let me go down for your sake
Forget it, boy
You had a lot of get up and go's

Socks and dirty clothes
On the bathroom floor
A condom in your wallet
What is it there for?

Before you hurt me
I gotta leave you
So easy
It's so easy, watch
My love's in the way
Like it's weighing on a peaceful mind
I be damned if I be with a man
Who won't treat me right

Things aren't getting better
They only getting worse
What I thought was a blessing
Has become a curse

[Repeat Chorus:]
