[Intro]

Yeah, like I was saying

I ain't, ya know what

I'm not tryin' to say things to hurt you

You know what I'm saying

I don't wanna hurt you, baby

Just sometimes you do things

Hidden in corners, blinging out our share

Kelly makin' hits now

Thinking about this industry

I was talkin' too loud

When I didn't come home

I was hanging with the crowd

Whenever we fight I try to win every round

Can you find a way to forgive me now



(I don't mean it) Cuz I don't mean it
