Ooh Ooooh Oooh
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
We gon do it like this
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
Everything I had I gave
My heart money my time
Couldn't see the underlying truth
I was so blind
And as much as I'd like to
I just can not press rewind
But I can tell you
Exactly what's been on my mind
For the last time
You've got the best of me
I was once was blind
But now I can see that
You only want things your way
I've known in my gut for some time
This day would come
I'm telling you that I am done
Participating in these charades
So many years of my life invested
Into falsehood
I never would have guessed it
Death, decay, and corruption
Spiritual seduction
Fool me once
Ooh ooooh oooh
But you fool me twice
Ooh ooooh oooh
I'm hip to your game
I'm making the change
I'm writing a new chapter
Turning the page
For the last time
You've got the best of me
I once was blind
But now I can see that
You only want things your way
I've known in my gut for some time
This day would come
I'm telling you that I am done
Participating in these charades
Never again
Never again
Never again
Never again
Listen
Listen
Listen
Listen
Listen
Life's a gamble
So double down and hit back
Talk where ya from
But got to walk where ya at
When playing the game
Know crooked decks gon be stacked
So never split ten
When the game pops back
If it's thicker than blood
It's kinda hard to bounce back
Overcome that
You got to watch out for the track
Some call it a shack
We call it train pullin slats
Ghetto just happened cause of roaches and rats
When it's up for grabs
He gon make the slab crack
When it's down for grabs
He gon make the slab crack
Ungh
Seeing so much supposed to make you a scholar
When it get raw I know
It's getting hard to swallow
But thank God for saving me from me
This crazy place I was in
Took me a while just to find out
The New Life begins
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
Ooh Ooooh Oooh
