[Chorus]
If it all comes crashing down
And we just can't work it out
And you feel that you have to bounce
I'ma I wished that I had you around
Don't walk away

[Verse 1]
Back in the day you came along just like a flash in the night
You're so bright, illuminating my life by just your sight
And yeah, you knew I did this music and you called me a star
I didn't see it like you did because I knew from the start
That my heart was so tainted from my cold dark path
And I've accepted that my life is heading nowhere fast
I was detached from my emotions, I would tell you I suck
You didn't want me in your life 'cause if I was, you'd be stuck
I'm bad luck from day one
So don't invest your whole life
In such a person with no future and a heart full of strife
But girl, you saw so much more
You just knew I would blow and here we are years later, girl
So what if I don't? (What if I don't?)

[Chorus]
If it all comes crashing down
And we just can't work it out
And you feel that you have to bounce
I'ma I wished that I had you around
Don't walk away
It's been a long, winding road
And it hurts for me to see you go
So just walk away
Walk away
Walk away
I know you gotta walk away

[Verse 2]
You put up with my faults and all my terrible habits
And all the things you want in life, it seems you never gon' have it
'Cause I just simply can't provide it and there's no use in hidin'
The fact that I'm so broke and even though I'm still here tryin'
To make it in this business with the drama and the bitches
I ain't gettin' any younger, seems the clock just keeps on ticking
My age is now showing, our kids are now growing
And I still chase a dream and they ain't got shit to show for it
You're my Number 1 supporter and my fan, you always say that
I know you are, but I'm no star, we're waiting on this payback
And it may never come, this big thing I'm chasin' after
And you're stuck with a washed-up DJ and rapper

[Chorus]
If it all comes crashing down
And we just can't work it out
And you feel that you have to bounce
I'ma I wished that I had you around
Don't walk away
It's been a long, winding road
And it hurts for me to see you go
So just walk away
Walk away
Walk away
I know you gotta walk away

[Verse 3]
Moving back and forth and always following our hearts
But now it's all crashing down, our world is falling apart
And now you feel as if you're trapped inside a life that's not your own
You stay 'cause you're afraid to go and leave me all alone
But yo, I know I have some issues and a future that's grim
And the chances of success at this point are now slim
I sit and look back
And just remember them days
When you believed that you and me would be together always
And you deserve to be so happy but I'm destined to fail
Spread your wings out wide, take to the sky and set sail
And that look in your eyes these days, it's like you hate me
Like your life went to shit and you blame me
So bounce

[Chorus 2x]
If it all comes crashing down
And we just can't work it out
And you feel that you have to bounce
I'ma I wished that I had you around
Don't walk away
It's been a long, winding road
And it hurts for me to see you go
So just walk away
Walk away
Walk away
I know you gotta walk away
