They say what goes around comes around
And I know I made mistakes and you forgave me how.
I don't understand, you know I'm trying the best I can
I guess it's consequences when you dealing with sin.
And even scarified your friends over me,
All them nights in the club turn to nights with me.
It's like the same old story out your diary
Memories never fade, but in only time we'll see
Hope to see you with me 'cause

My heart beats, for you, girl you know you are the one.
Why you mad at me? Girl I know I made mistakes, I know I fucked up.
But my heart beats for you baby I'mma go 'head scream it loud.
But if you leave there's something I can't control,
So let's do it one last time, a f*ck for the road.

Gripping and biting, remember the times after fighting
You said you love me, I liked it, became obsessed with the sexing.
You screaming “who's is it”, we naked
I'm pullin' your hair told you take it
A couple of shots, now we faded
Don't even know we made it, we home.
Got that look in your eyes like hope you mines
Said you hoped the feeling's real
Really tired of all the lies.
One minute we fine, then we not
Everything I do you can't but that's no reason for making mistakes
This time put it all on the plate.
Told you be loyal, spoil you, never disown you,
You get lonely when I'm touring just hold it down be supportive.
I'll be back in the morning that new purse you wanted
What's good if you can't flaunt it, flaunt it show it.
Ain't the same, better than the rest
And what's real love if you ain't got respect?
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to make you understand
Make you understand that

My heart beats, for you, girl you know you are the one.
Why you mad at me? Girl I know I made mistakes, I know I fucked up.
But my heart beats for you baby I'mma go 'head scream it loud.
But if you leave there's something I can't control,
So let's do it one last time, a f*ck for the road.

All I ever wanted was your happiness,
But right now let's get right down to it, let's handle this business.
If you gonna leave me tonight, I gotta kiss it goodbye,
Girl I'm bout to make it cry, and all I need is one more time 'cause my

Last time, best time, better than my next time
Rolex invest time, Moet it's sex time.
Hard to let go, a part of you gon' be alone
Scrolling your phone, looking at texts, seems like not too long ago
Ain't the same better than the rest
And what's real love if you ain't got respect?
And it's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to make you understand
Make you understand that

My heart beats, for you, girl you know you are the one.
Why you mad at me? Girl I know I made mistakes, I know I fucked up.
But my heart beats for you baby I'mma go 'head scream it loud.
But if you leave there's something I can't control,
So let's do it one last time, a f*ck for the road.
