Michael Gaither - It's Nothing Personal (The Layoff Song) Lyrics

We were a benchmark of how two people grow
From my line of sight I'd still swear tonight all our ducks were in a row
I loved her
Thought she loved me
But learned I was a redundancy
When she said "you gotta go"

It's nothing personal
I'm moving in a different direction
It could be worse, you know
But this might be the push you need
These are unplanned actions I had to take
Changes I couldn't anticipate
But it's nothing personal

I don't know where we went off track
How I made her personal, personnel cutback
Our engagement platform now deceased
I've been restructured and released
Resized, reorg'ed, and rolled back

It's nothing personal
I'm moving in a different direction
It could be worse, you know
But this might be the push you need
These are unplanned actions I had to take
Changes I couldn't anticipate
But it's nothing personal

I freelance now
She's eased my commute
With my downsized, right sized, not so blue skies golden parachute
I thought we had potential
'til I was deemed nonessential
Big words aside she gave me the boot

It's nothing personal
I'm moving in a different direction
It could be worse, you know
But this might be the push you need
These are unplanned actions I had to take
Changes I couldn't anticipate
But it's nothing personal
