The Letter

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose

All the broken hearts and the unpaid dues

What you did to me, what I did to you

I ain't mad at you, boo

So what we gonna do?

I just seen you out with your mans, lookin' kinda happy

Feelin' like somebody just slapped me

Gut's in a knot, my temp's gettin' hot

I want to make that man bleed and wet his speed knot

He ain't got what we had, and it makes me kinda mad

I hurt my one true love, just like my dad

And it's kinda sad, 'cause now my shit's together

No need for umbrellas, I can see the stormy weather

I'm goin' outside into the rain

Like Keith Sweat, 'cause I can't house this pain

We was workin' for years, now I'm jerkin' these tears

>From my lips to God's ears, girl, I did you wrong

So I'm makin' this song, to let you know how I feel

Before keepin' it real, may keep my heart concealed

And now I'm on the side just paitently waitin'

Watchin' on you and the time for updatin'

I can't hide from the truth, I know the pudding's in the proof

So I stand convicted, like all your friends predicted

But I think you'd be surprised on how this ends, brothers

We went from lovers to friends, we'll go from friends to lovers

So if that man make you smile, I guess that I'll

Just accept it, and respect it

I'll hit you wit' this song and let you think about it

Then I'll just leave you alone and be a man about it
