Leaving You Lyrics

That's why I'm leaving you

[Hook: x2]
She's got everything that
She could ever need
Champagne sipping
Lifestyle's a fantasy
High off money and love
It just don't mean a thing
That's why I'm leaving
That's why I'm leaving you

[Verse 1:]
Yo, now everybody knows
This girl is famous for her stunts
She never waits in line at the club
But she always gets the jump

Instead of having a soul
She relies on the soul inside of her pumps

Party all night, fall asleep, at breakfast wasted
Just to wake up way past lunch

I hate what she does
But I love how she does it
Keep going round like a bad piece of a luggage
When I say bad piece of luggage
I mean pretty piece of luggage
But it's pretty till you gottta lug it

Yeah, with the wrong girl, at the right time
I'm just gonna let the light shine
Cause yeah she's fine like Blake Lively
But I could never make her wifey, nah
