The Fall ft. Stress The White Boy Lyrics

Some things happened so long ago, feel like another lifetime

This beat jogged my memory and this came down the pipeline

Young love, life was so simple I had no car

I made a hundred bucks a week and stretched that yard out so far

With dinner and a movie, pay my 1-800 beeper bill

Staying up all night with no cares and I would sleep until

I felt like waking up, boring and complacent

Tryna find manhood while living in my mama basement

It lead to infidelity inevitably I strayed

Cause a man will change his women way before he change his ways

And it's too late you realize your mistakes and she ain't feeling

The same and now the pain got you crying like Lenny Williams

I found out the hard way, but now I'm just facing it

Mad cause I scratched the soundtrack to my relationship

Another sad song, cause the finest woman you'll ever see

Is your ex when she's on another mans arm

You know it when it's going on

It's when the other person's happiness is more important than your own

No more searching

You just one person in the world but you mean the whole world to one person

I tell you cats don't be rappin' bout love no more

You don't always have to act like a thug home bul

It's ok to open up to a woman if she's worth it

Especially she make you feel like your life got a purpose

I had some great women in my life that adored me

Who made me feel like that they would leap through fire for me

Might sound kinda corny might sound kinda wack

When bills fly in the front door and love fly out the back

Gotta understand and seek to be understood

Effective communication keeps the loving good

You gotta put your work in

You wanna be American Pimp or be The Last American Virgin

You keep the love alive if not it's gonna be dead soon

A lady in the street a hellcat up in the bedroom

Pick your poison I ain't tryna make no sappy song

Just letting you know a happy wifey makes a happy home

You know it when it's going on

It's when the other person's happiness is more important than your own

No more searching

You just one person in the world but you mean the whole world to one person

To be brutally honest I used to lay down with the finest

Woman you ever seen and took advantage of their kindness

Had sex unprotected and, dick got infected

Promised never again, but still went back to being reckless

I grew outta that but back then you couldn't tell me nothing

Tell'em I'm making love to'em but I ain't even love'em

Had a lotta fun but I was on the wrong path

Booty text messages, threesomes gone bad

Hooking up with mad chicks that's single

At the midweek after work mix and mingle

Young homies peepin' game like "Side is my hero"

Cause I was loving black women more than Robert Deniro

But then I did the Asian, White, and Puerto Rican thing

African death stroke, forty four chicken wing

Sex positions, got promoted to my next position of manhood

I settled down now I'm damn good

You know it when it's going on

It's when the other person's happiness is more important than your own

No more searching

You just one person in the world but you mean the whole world to one person
