[C] All of the times that we had together [Cm] We should've known nothing [D] lasts forever
Hey, [Cm] when this shit end, [Gm] man, it's gon' get [F] ugly
Real, real ugly Your [Cm] grandmama love [Bb] me, and your mama love me
Little sister hugs [Eb] me, even [Dm] got a few homegirls that wanna fuck [Cm] me
Soon as this [Gm] shit end, forget [F] about it You been staying in my crib, you [Bb] gotta care about it
Cause if you laying in my bed, let's admit about it
One time fucking [Dm] and we no longer [D] upset [C] about it
[Eb] Cause when this [Gm] shit ends, it's either [C] all or nothing
I thought you loved me, [F] how the hell you [Cm] gon' call your [Bb] cousin?
You know that these the last half-slow evil [Eb] ass nigga [C] in that Honda [Dm] showing up with [Bb] that drama
[Cm] Oh my mama, we been through it [Gm] all
[D] From the goods to the bads, ride [F] to the fog
[Cm] You done seen me [Bb] at my best, seen me at my worst
So when this [Eb] shit ends, know it's gon' [Dm] hurt

[Cm] We should've known nothing [Dm] lasts forever
They say we [Cm] won't last, I know [Gm] you suspicious but you don't [F] ask
And I don't tell, [Cm] that's where we both [Bb] fell
A good nigga gone bad, good nigga [Eb] alone, mad as fuck
[Dm] She done had enough, [Cm] I be out here tryna [Gm] raise my status [E] up
[D] But success bring [F] bitches and they bad [Eb] as fuck
[Bb] Ass fat as fuck, with a little old waist
I ain't want the whole meal, [Dm] just a little [D] old taste
[Cm] Should've looked both ways [Gm] before I crossed you
I [D] guess I never thought I [F] could've ever lost [Cm] you
[Bb] Now I'm out stuntin' with this bitch who ain't about nothin'
[Eb] While some nigga [Dm] learnin' all the shit I taught [Bb] you
[Cm] Guess you deserve [Gm] that, a new [D] start
But deep [F] down, you know we grew apart
[Cm] Long before I [Bb] broke your heart, if I lost your respect
I'm just hopin' [Eb] you don't look at me as something [Dm] you regret

[Gm] Now it's been a while, [C] apologies, I ain't [F] been around
I [Eb] wanna kick it [Bb] but I know this shit is different
Now when times have changed, let [Eb] me know if I'm out of bounds
[Dm] Are the lines the same, I [Cm] mean, you lookin' good, [Gm] yeah, you still got it
Been [F] reminiscin' and I'm not sure how I feel [C] about it
Now [Bb] we can say that all good things come to an end
But we know each other way [Dm] too well to [D] pretend
We [Cm] went from friends to something [Gm] much more
[D] To breakin' [F] up to makin' up and fuckin' once more
[Cm] Second [Bb] chances we gave enough to finally we gave it up
But some days I be wakin' up and wantin' [Dm] one more
[Cm] But what for, maybe it's just the [Gm] weather
We [D] break each [F] other's hearts so maybe it's for the better
