This time
I left once
And as bad as I wanted to turn around and jump into your arms I kept on strolling
Not only to be a bad ass but I figured it would teach you a lesson
As bad as I wanted you to tell me you needed me, I kept strolling
I received your calls
I received your letters
I even wrote back but being the bad ass that I am I never sent them off
Most of us girls just need to know that you actually care, some confirmation
And if you continue sometimes we get fed up and we do leave
Sometimes we’ll even threaten you with words we don’t really mean
We will tell you to leave when we actually mean stay
You see I left once and it wasn’t my fault this time
I left because you ceased to be the rhythm in my rhymes
I left because you came in disguise
and my visions of you I could hardly recognize
I even said that after you I would never love again
I said you were my last my beginning and end
I never had a real human who was real as a whole being
Breaking up telling lies as disguise and disagreeing
Misleading mistrust leaving tears in disgust
Believing in him with out any real trust
See, I was young and unforgettable with a good heart and good deeds
But I was left broken because my man he needed other needs
In reality if he had come behind me, I would’ve possibly kept strolling
I left once and this time it wasn’t even my fault
