Back in the Day Lyrics by Mila J

Split Personality

2006

[Intro]
Yeah
Young Rome
Yeah
Let’s go
[Verse 1: Mila J]
(Back in the day)
You was too young to understand what it took for a woman to thug it out and [?] my own man
(Back in the day)
I never thought that love was more than a crush
I just fell for you ‘cause you gave me a [?]
(Back in the day)
I let you take you my virginity
Meet my moms and my pops and be embraced by my family
(Back in the day)
I wish you wouldn’t know everything then that you would know now
You could’ve been with me
[Chorus]
(Back in the day)
You shouldn’t make me your first and your last
And realize that there’s always somebody you can’t have
You should’ve put all your trust in me
You should have a girl like a real bad baby
(Back in the day)
You shouldn’t make me your first and your last
Everytime I see your face I just can’t forget the past
You should’ve gave all your love to me
You should’ve held me down like a real bad baby
[Verse 2: Mila J]
You never wanted to meet the finer things
Are you about, cause you knew that you was cheating
(Back in the day)
Thought you had me in the world’s [?] you was doing your thing
Didn’t see what you was losing
(Back in the day)
[?]
I loved you but you was too foolish to take me serious
(Back in the day)
Baby, if you knew the things that you know now, I’d definitely be your wifey
Back in the day, you was busy house partying
Chillin’ with your boys, wasn’t [?]
Dissapear just to make me miss you
And now you wishin' I was right there with you
[Chorus: Mila J]
(Back in the day)
You shouldn’t make me your first and your last
And realize that there’s always somebody you can’t have
You should’ve put all your trust in me
You should have a girl like a real bad baby
(Back in the day)
You shouldn’t make me your first and your last
Everytime I see your face I just can’t forget the past
You should’ve gave all your love to me
You should’ve held me down like a real bad baby
[Verse 3: Young Rome]
I’m real bad, when you with the catholic school
[?] as anybody I’d be a fool
[Chorus: Mila J]
(Back in the day)
You shouldn’t make me your first and your last
And realize that there’s always somebody you can’t have
You should’ve put all your trust in me
You should have a girl like a real bad baby
(Back in the day)
You shouldn’t make me your first and your last
Sometimes when I see your face I just can’t forget the past
You should’ve gave all your love to me
You should’ve held me down like a real bad baby
[Outro: Mila J]
Damn, what was you thinking
You’ve really messed up this time
And now I’m gone
