Before You Go

Lyrics

Damn hey
 I know you ain't tryna hear me out but
 There's a couple of things I wanna get off my chest
 Listen...
 I know sometimes you wonder when I'm not there
 You feel frustrated thinking that I don't care
 Cause I don't, answer my phone
 I don't, return your call
 I don't, do all the things
 That I, once did before
 It's just the way I am, let me assure you
 Baby nothing could be further from the truth
 Sometimes I, be working late
 Cause I, gotta write that song
 Don't be, too quick to judge(you can)
 That somethings wrong
 I know I shouldve spend more time
 That was my mistake
 Girl I don't wanna change your mind
 But before you go
 Just know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 All I ever wanted, was you to stay
 And before you up and leave
 I just need you to see
 Losing you was not a part of the plan
 Know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 And before you go
 Just let me say, I'm sorry I could'ntbe that boy
 But please believe
 All I wanted was... all I wanted was to be your man
 Baby understand I never meant to hurt you
 And I realized the way that I mistreat you
 I'm thinking of all the things, that I could've done
 Shouldve, made you believe, that, you were the one
 To see you walk away caught me by suprise
 I guess you meant more to me than I realized
 I wish, I could go back but, what's done is done
 So now I guess it's times that we try to move on
 I know I shouldve been right there
 That was my mistake
 Girl I ain't tryna change your mind
 I know it's much too late
 Just know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 All I ever wanted, was you to stay
 And before you up and leave
 I just need you to see
 Losing you was not a part of the plan
 Know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 And before you go
 Just let me say, I'm sorry I could'ntbe that boy
 But please believe
 All I wanted was...
 All I wanted was to be your man
 I thought I needed time and space
 But seeing you walk away
 Has made me realize this isnt
 How it was supposed to be... ya yeaa
 As I'm sitting here alone writing this song
 Tryna figure out what the hell went wrong
 I remember how we used to be baby
 And everything I did that would drive you crazy
 I would stay out all night
 You go left and I go right
 To the studio for confessionals
 Sitting right by another fight
 You were right
 Yes I learned, did like usher and let it burn
 Wish I could turn back the hands of time
 Make you wanna stand three little words
 Looking back, it was just that easy
 I'm not saying this so that you won't leave me
 I just hope you hear the song and believe me
 Just know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 All I ever wanted, was you to stay
 And before you up and leave
 I just need you to see
 Losing you was not a part of the plan
 Know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 And before you go
 Just let me say, I'm sorry I could'ntbe that boy
 But please believe
 All I wanted was... all I wanted was to be your man
 Just know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 All I ever wanted, was you to stay
 And before you up and leave
 I just need you to see
 Losing you was not a part of the plan
 Know that, I wasn't tryna push you away
 And before you go
 Just let me say, I'm sorry I could'ntbe that boy
 But please believe
 All I wanted was...
 All I wanted was to be your man
