Walking Away

Dear letter, to whom it may concern
From the one you left, never to return
I know I ain't perfect but did I deserve
To be tossed to the side like a penny on the curb
Had to let it burn, b'cause love don't do that
She got another turn but she ran right through that
Plus another turn and another 'nother turn
Hoping deep down inside with some time she'll learn
To get the big picture, Kodak moment
The house on the hill, yeah we'll finally own it
Today...but that ain't what you say
But what you said got me Walking Away
And I know it's a way and I hear what you say
But what you just said got me Walking Away
So now I'm Walking Away...now I'm Walking Away
Now-now I'm walking, what you said got me Walking Away
And I know it's a way and I hear what you say
But what you just said got me Walking Away...now I'm Walking Away
So I'm taking it, day by day
Playing it close like the big game, play by play
They say sticks and stones 'al go and break your bones
But whoever said that words can't hurt don't know
B'cuz man I'm going through it...She left with the kids
Left me with the bills man I swear I'm 'bout to lose it
You say you want me back, then you don't want me back
Now you want me back again, that's confusing
Like trying to quench your thirst in the desert mane
Better check the weather...everything's an illusion
So quick to judge the book by the cover
But read me first before you jump to conclusions
But hey...I hear what you say
But what you said got me Walking Away
And I know it's a way, and I hear what you say
But what you just said got me Walking Away
So now I'm Walking Away...now I'm Walking Away
Now-now I'm walking, what you said got me Walking Away
And I know it's a way and I hear what you say
But what you just said got me Walking Away...now I'm Walking Away
I got my own two, so I'm still walking
Gone in November, be back in August
Daddy got a home, had to ditch that apartment
Done came a long way for a nigga from the projects
I'm on...so now I got options
And kept it under wraps so you wouldn't be a target
Of the media...and of the haters
Hating on your boy b'cuz I showed them what I'm made of
So how you going to say I don't care
How you going to run away and say I won't there
Then lie to the judge, you know that ain't fair
And I ain't trying to judge, I'm just trying to clear the air cuz
Hey...I hear what you say
But what you said got me Walking Away
And I know it's a way and I hear what you say
But what you just said got me Walking Away
So now I'm Walking Away...Walking Away
Now-now I'm walking, what you said got me Walking Away
And I know it's a way, and I hear what you say
But what you just said got me Walking Away...so now I'm Walking Away
Walking Away...Walking Away
Walking Away...Walking Away
Walking Away...Walking Away
Walking Away...see now I'm Walking Away
Walking Away...Walking Away
Walking, now we're walking, now I'm Walking Away
Walking Away...I'm Walking Away
Walking, now I'm walking, now I'm Walking Away
