Oh, oh [Repeated until the first verse]

I ride like a soldier
Put nothing before ya
Anything you ask
I'll be right there to do it
But if I react you tell me to relax
Too late to take it back
Cause boy you put me through it

This circular motion is all we do
I'm so sick of going back and forth with you
You should have been happy to have me
You said you wanted to have some kids build a family
(Now I)

Wish it wasn't true
It's killing me to do
What I gotta do
The problem here is you
Ain't nobody new not even my crew
Could take the place of you
The problem here is you

'Cause if you only knew what I felt for you
You would have held on tighter
Fought a little harder
Been a little smarter and now you're gonna miss my love
And one day soon you'll see
You'll reach out for me
Boy you had a keeper
Didn't know how to treat her
Should've dug a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love

Kick it with ya friends (go)
Go out with other chicks (go)
Be all up in the mix (go)
You got the right to do it

You wanna be a pimp
Be treated like a prince
Go 'head and flip the switch
Cause now you got ya crown back

This circular motion is all we do
I'm so sick of going back and forth with you
You should have been happy to have me
You said you wanted to have some kids build a family
(now I)

Wish it wasn't true
It's killing me to do
What I gotta do
The problem here is you
Ain't nobody new not even my crew
Could take the place of you
The problem here is you

'Cause if you only knew what I felt for you
You would have held on tighter
Fought a little harder
Been a little smarter and now you're gonna miss my love
And one day soon you'll see
You'll reach out for me
Boy you had a keeper
Didn't know how to treat her
Should've dug a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love

My hugs (and)
My kisses
You know you're gonna miss it
And while you're tripping on the love we could have had
I'm moving on
I got to (and)
Ain't no looking back

'Cause if you only knew what I felt for you
You would have held on tighter
Fought a little harder
Been a little smarter and now you're gonna miss my love
And one day soon you'll see

You'll reach out for me
Boy you had a keeper
Didn't know how to treat her
Should've dug a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love
Boy you had a keeper, didn't know how to treat her
Should've dug a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love

Oh, oh [Repeat numerous times]

See boy
You had a keeper
But you didn't know
How to treat her
