I've Changed

Just starin' at these four walls closin' In on me, feelin' like time's frozen Fadin' in and out, noddin' and dozin' Guilt tearin' up my brain like erosion What I did to you was wrong I admit it I regret that I did it like a junkie when he's jonzin' All alone in what used to be a home But you packed up our joy in that bag you put your clothes in The voice mail that you left me was scoldin' Hot enough to burn a hole in a cauldron Cause it was all true, that's why we all through Now your girl's pickin' up the cell when I call you Talkin' slick like she ain't here She don't want you no more, punk disappear, click I need to hit her with a brick But that'll only lead me to a worse predicament I hope your girlfriend ain't got you on a liquor binge With her bitter attitude just cause she's sick of men But I'ma keep on callin', fightin' 'til the end On my knees 'til they bleed, to prove my love again [Chorus] I sit in front of yo' crib in the pourin' rain Whylin' out screamin' yo' name And keepin' ringin' yo' bell 'til you mad as hell And call the po'-po', I ain't afraid (yeah, yeah) You can get yo' folks and yo' cousins and them And try to run me off yo' blocka (uh-huh) But I ain't scared, I ain't goin nowhere And I ain't stoppin 'til I gotcha To show you I changed shawty I seen you at the movies with some tall cat So I bust his headlights with a ball bat When I was with you he would give me dap and all that Now you in his arms in the mall, what you call that? That's what I get for creepin' and crawlin' Every other weekend gone until the mornin' Sneakin' out to my dirt, dead wrong Comin' back past dawn with the guilty mask on And I never counted the cost, took heed to warnings Try to hurt a rose you get pricked by a thorn And it don't feel nice, when you wake up nights Shakin' in cold sweats and your whole life's a wreck That was the old me, the one I still regret The one you couldn't respect, the one you should forget But I'ma keep on callin', fightin' 'til the end On my knees 'til they bleed, to prove my love again [Chorus] To show you I changed shawty I really did change shawty (I'm tellin' you I've changed) I wanna show you I changed shawty (i still love you!) [cars peel] I don't care if the cops got me surrounded Swat teams whatever, tell 'em to send the hounds in My mind's in an altered state Like I'm headed for a wall, top speed, foot off the brake I make a fool of myself, girl whatever it takes I already played the fool when I let you escape You're as, good as it gets, your friendship your sex Everything about you and yours connects From your, beautiful smile to the scent of your skin The sheets smell different, this is not livin' It feels like dyin', god knows I'm tryin' Ain't no sight sadder than a grown man cryin' Please find it in your heart to forgive me Realize only god can convict me We all make mistakes, so have you If god show mercy on me, then you should too [Chorus] To show you I changed shawty I really did change shawty (i'm tellin' you I've changed) I wanna show you I changed shawty (I still love you!) ow! (I'm tellin' you I've changed)
