[Verse 1]
Uhh, yeah, feel this
Okay, no more drama that's what she sayin'
Been dealing with the same broke nigga since sixteen
But now she's 23 feeling strong ready to skate
But something inside her tellin' her to hit the breaks
See she grew up with both Bs and wanted that so B
For her own shorty so she stuck around knowing he
Was never going to be a good father to her son
In front of him rolling weed flashing his gun
Now momma doing all she could trying to bring him up good
Doing all she can trying to raise her lil man
With minimum help, give him the belt when he bad
Working two jobs playing mom and dad
Making sure that he has everything she ever had
Plus more thats so raw so don't feel sad
See you gotta sacrifice so you all can have a better life
And when he show up at the door girl be strong and let him go
[Hook]
Look
I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means
I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means
I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
[Verse 2]
Okay, this time around, things gonna change
No more messing with me playing hoe games
That's what she told herself when she took him back
And momma always said never date a boy that slap
Throw the facts out the window when it comes to love
Treated her like a queen for the first couple months
And that was just enough to rope her in
Had her feeling like us against the world 'til the end
But the situation switches when he humping extra women
Now he saying that he different and he wants us to forgive him
But, but, she don't know if she should believe him
But something inside her really thinks that she needs him, around
But cheating really brought her down
And occasionally he manages to make her smile
Sometimes the jonesin' gets him crawling back
But my advice to you girls is keep from falling back
And let him go
[Hook]
I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means
I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means
I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
You just gotta let 'em go
You just gotta let 'em go
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
[Verse 3]
Yeah I made my mistakes
Broke a couple hearts
Had my heart smashed into itty bitty parts
Pieces of the soul when the sun dry it cold
Nothing comes down this road, this is how the spirit grows
And if you near it know, it might not last forever
But, that, might be for the better
Check the weather when it's storming is your fella your umbrella
Or are you in the rain all alone feeling fed up
This the end of the romantics
I feel you in the chest
Yes, there's still some good brothers left
They say you gotta go through it to get to it for sure
And if he don't appreciate, you gotta let him go
[Hook]
I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means
I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means
I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams
I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
