So Close Lyrics

[Hook] x3
We came so close almost
But still that's no cigar
How could our hearts beat so close
When our minds so far apart
We came so close almost


[Verse 1]
Ain't a relationship great
Look what it turn to
Is this what seven years of dedication earn you
I thought you wanted me
But you just wanna be
Up in somebody VIP where all the suckers be
Poppin bottles, Puffin weed

Guess you had enough of me
Can't make you what you don't wanna be
Luckily I recognize lies you was tellin in advance
Get another chance you do the same shit again
You better get some plans
Buckin on the system
Wonder why I'm so distant
You don't listen
Either I'm the wrong man or you the wrong Mrs
It's time to say goodbye and blow kisses
Moah
[Hook] x2

[Verse 2]
Hey I drink some muddy water
Sleep on a hollow log
Before I stay and let somebody treat me like a dog
Showed you the writing on the wall
And you tryin to blame in on another broad (NAW)
Not one of us perfect
I ain't the only one that's hurtin
We both wrong and look beneath the surface
For certain
But still ain't workin
Happiness, we both deserve it
With that said it's time to close the curtains
What's the purpose of stickin around complainin
Bout some things that'll never change
Bout each other while we suffer
Falsify everythang
I understand the circumstances
Hell I own the situation
The fed case and all the jail time a nigga facin
But you stayed down and never gave up
Remember when we used to drop top and blaze up
But them days long gone for the moment
Guess love hurts sometimes don't it
[Hook] x3
