Lyrics
[verse 1]
if you'da said this day would ever come i'd say 'come again'
i wasn't ready for change like republicans
in the kitchen wit no oven mitt, somethin's gonna burn
there's a lesson in each failure, guess i'm gonna learn
still need insight, i was never sure if i loved you
for your insides, or outside or 'cause u let me inside
but i realize i saw that thin line, i wish you did
if y'all dont understand, then i guess u can't fit my timbs
u saw the whole damn thing, should took a stand, babe
guess u fell for that whole stop snitchin campaign
i wont cast blame, throw stones, we was in the fast lane
why go slow, it could be our last days!
guess thats how we got to this stage in the first place
seen a couple up's, a couple down's like my birthplace (VA) but
that's whats happens when greed come between ya
worse case, i'll see ya when i see ya ...
[bridge]
i gave my heart, my soul, my sweat, my tears
my dear, more tears than i care to admit
i couldn't give you the moon and stars
but i gave my aaall...
i gave my thoughts, my hopes, my life, my dreams
i seen more dreams than i'll ever admit
i couldn't give you the jewels and cars
but i gave my aaall...
[hook]
all, this time, i gave you
all, i could, i thought that
all, was fine, now tell me
where did we go wrong (where did we go wrong)
all, this time, i thought that
you understood, after
all, those nights, that i
held you in my arms (where did we go wrong)
[verse 2]
u gotta understand it wont a plan, this was meant to be
and i ain't just sad, this is misery
but we aint got the stamina or energy
to withstand what a relationship really means...
lemme digress from what u did to me, i cant digest it
sick to my stomache, can't hold down my breakfast
but i weigh the odds and scale the metrics
pray to god to protect against failed decisions
like should i put in all my efforts, and pull the pieces together...
just to watch 'em fall like tetris?

[verse 3]
thought we'd be together, regardless of the weather
guess she just left the salon cuz its rainin and she's gone
need no sympathy from y'all, my only consolation
is the skripture of the bars and the riff of the guitar
keep distance from the broad in resistance of the scars
if i drop guard i'll be back at the beginnin of the song
stuffed three plus years in a box in the closet
honestly i tried but i just can't discard it
however, i turn my back, bathe my palms
dont take this wrong, i'm sorry for everything you lost
and though it's with a heavy heart i wave you off
there's no doubt i gave my all.

[bridge 2]
early on it was hard to fall to sleep
i, couldn't stay asleep cuz i started to dream
nightmares, can't get 'em out of my head
i, still can't sleep on your side of the bed
i, still can't sleep on your side of the bed
i, still wake up, thinkin' you'll be there
...
... (where did we go wrong)
palms, so empty (where did we go wrong)
heart's, so empty (where did we go wrong)
depression tempts me, i'm so empty
because i gave my aaallll...!
