Im only half the man that I wasIll never last, cause my better half is up there with youYou knew what you was doin when you made us; so with all due respectYou coulda forgave him, you didnt have to take himHe can take the game with him, cause he defines the wordThe one who puts the g in it, who you think put me in it?Im feelin like my whole world is blinded - wonderin whyCryin, pourin out my heart, pourin out liquor behind itWe fought like brothers, somethin we never should doWe coulda used time spent arguin tellin the truthHe had talent too - I had plans on watchin him growDont know what hurts more - seein him leave, or watchin him go[mary j. blige]Listen listen listen..
