What You Said Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I remember what you said to me
"I belong to you, you belong to me"
You were always there, when no one really cared for me
I know I made it seem like I was prepared to be
With you, but I was never ready mentally
But I never let no other girl get to me
Always heard that there was nothing new
You were someone different when I was looking for the usual
Thought you were someone I couldn't afford to lose
Circle of life, but I'm stuck inside a cubical
Yea, I found the real you
And you cheated, how am I supposed to feel for you
We would've had it all, you and your judgment calls
Made it so easy to find out who had the subtle flaws
The employees can't employ the boss
Yea, I guess for you its just a loss
[Hook]
We were supposed to be together
All this talking of forever
Got our whole life to live
All this time to give to each other
I couldn't have been more wrong
And here I'm thinking you should let me in
Here I'm thinking you should let me in
And here I'm thinking you should let me in
Never hurts to try, we can't be more than friends girl
I remember what you said to me
"I belong to you, you belong to me"
You were always there, when no one really cared for me
I know I made it seem like I was prepared to be
With you, but I was never ready mentally
But I never let no other girl get to me
Always heard that there was nothing new
You were someone different when I was looking for the usual
Thought you were someone I couldn't afford to lose
Circle of life, but I'm stuck inside a cubical
Yea, I found the real you
And you cheated, how am I supposed to feel for you
We would've had it all, you and your judgment calls
Made it so easy to find out who had the subtle flaws
The employees can't employ the boss
Yea, I guess for you its just a loss
[Hook]
We were supposed to be together
All this talking of forever
Got our whole life to live
All this time to give to each other
I couldn't have been more wrong
And here I'm thinking you should let me in
Here I'm thinking you should let me in
And here I'm thinking you should let me in
Never hurts to try, we can't be more than friends girl
[Verse 2]
I remember what I said to you
"Believe in nothing if you don't think it's true"
And if you are afraid to lose, me
Don't share secrets with individuals
That's just a word to the wise
Everybody waiting on us what a pleasant surprise
You can't be faithful if all you live is a lie
And I forgot to applaud but I just love your disguise
Uh, who you putting on a show for?
Nobody got drive like us, well where's our chauffeur
Say you love me, but have nothing to show for it
All that searching for oil I just can't afford it
Sticking to the web of these lies
Weren't the person you claimed I learned that from these other guys
Why did I believe you were so hard to find?
There's many other girls like you, I had to be blind
[Hook]
[Outro]
I hate to say it, but you broke my heart
Guess the moral of the story is:
Why'd we ever start?
I remember what I said to you
"Believe in nothing if you don't think it's true"
And if you are afraid to lose, me
Don't share secrets with individuals
That's just a word to the wise
Everybody waiting on us what a pleasant surprise
You can't be faithful if all you live is a lie
And I forgot to applaud but I just love your disguise
Uh, who you putting on a show for?
Nobody got drive like us, well where's our chauffeur
Say you love me, but have nothing to show for it
All that searching for oil I just can't afford it
Sticking to the web of these lies
Weren't the person you claimed I learned that from these other guys
Why did I believe you were so hard to find?
There's many other girls like you, I had to be blind
[Hook]
[Outro]
I hate to say it, but you broke my heart
Guess the moral of the story is:
Why'd we ever start?
About
Genius Annotation
4th track from M.Wade’s Going The Distance. Were best friends made to be together or just remain friends? It doesn’t seem like it in this lost love tale. Very sad but beautiful attempt at it in another M.Wade life story. Only this time he’s not the one who forced the issue.
This song is produced by up and coming producer Omito Beats
- M.Wade has called this his favorite song on the mixtape/album because it touched him more than any of the other ones. Good choice! There’s so much realism in this.
