Brother Ali - Walking Away Lyrics
Intro:I'm gonna go ahead and wager that you'll never listen to another song of mine.I can't say I blame you, either, cause if you made records, you ain't going to catch me listening to that shit.But if you do, I just want you to know I didn't make this to hurt you, god knows you done hurt enough.Just… I don't know, trying to make some real shit, you know.ByeYou ain't never going to see me again if I can help itLittle felon take it easyFresh out of forced tears, kisses, and hugsYou about to lose the company your misery lovesAin't never did nothing but try to cure your diseaseAt least help the symptoms, 'stead you infected meI'm not the kind of man to draw a line in the sandIf you've got to draw at all then it's time for you to scramP.S. you can keep all this shitAnd hang around your broke friends and call yourself richStruggling I did with you was all for nothingIt was never enough, your heart set on sufferingI admit that I was weak in the beginningI wanted someone to need me instead of a friendshipI didn't think I deserved a true partnerSo I transferred the arrangement I had with my mommaSince you never listened to a word I ever saidMaybe seeing this door slam will get it through you headI don't love you; I don't think I ever didAnd if you hadn't tried to kill me, I'd have stayed for the kid(x2)There's nothing more for us to sayGot my mind made up, I'm walking awaySometimes we just outgrow the role that we playHope you find a happy ending to your story somedayRound and round and round we used to goI never *****ed you right or made enough bread, I knowIf I'm such a bastard and mistreated you soThen how is it you're losing your mind to see me go?Truth be told, I held you togetherFor all them years and I cheated on you neverDefended your honor, took in your mommaWhen she tried to rehab and had your back through the dramaYou've got a sick stone under your ribsWhere a heart is supposed to liveSick twisted and vindictive with your windows dimBaby in that wicked hardboiled fist you must shiverHow you threaten to kill the most preciousGift that you'll ever be blessed withUnless you're twisted, demented, and depressed as shitand alone 'cause you faithfully slayed your friendshipsSince you never listened to a word I ever saidMaybe seeing this door slam will get it through your headYou don't love me; I don't think you ever didAnd if you hadn't tried to kill me I'd have stayed for the kid(x2)There's nothing more for us to sayGot my mind made up, I'm walking awaySometimes we just outgrow the role that we playHope you find a happy ending to your story someday
