[Verse 1] Welcome to Hell's paradise

I always heard life was a pair of dice

Seven, eleven, or a pair of eyes

As I'm looking at her smearing eyes

She yelling take them glasses off your eyes are the

only things that not lying

Not caring to the point that I stopped lying

I tell her I feel the same

She tell me nigga quit playing you the only one that's not crying

You said you wasn't on no steal your man shit

If I broke it off now we won't be on some friend shit

Man, what goes around comes around that ceiling fan shit

I broke the levy to your eyes

That I don't give a damn shit



[Hook: Chris Brown] Time after time, it's the same old shit

Think it might be to late, for me to learn from my mistakes

I know that it hurts, I know that it hurts you

But you should have used your head first

This might be the biggest mistake, it's too late

Cause two can't be in first place



[Verse 2] Wake up then, shit, Call your ex and make up then

What was no strings attached got tangled when

Fun stopped being fun, and feeling tried to finagle in

We had that independent love, you tried to bring a label in

Girlfriend? Nah, I already got one

You need a good guy, and I'm already not one

She said we lost a kid already, I'm already not that young

My biological clock is ticking, I'm not just trying to have fun

Shits way different from us first chilling

Sometimes last words can have the worst ending

Which we could fast forward time and reverse feelings

Is there a warranty for love to return or fix it

She said you good either way, when it was her last night nigga and me today

You the man, Huh? Getting all the TNA

You fucking her raw too, sharing our DNA?

And so on and so on, And the shit just always goes on

Nothing about us feeling right

But she'll be back before the end of the night



[Hook]

I love her, I love her, I love her
