Said she gave you everything She broke her back to be What you need I tried so long to just compete Can't take no more Losin' sight of me I'm lettin' you know this can't go on this one way street I'm walkin' alone This time I'm breakin' free I'm goin' to find me I can't sit and be passive Won't tolerate no more That's it I tried so hard to be What you wanted me to be If it can't be 50/50 Then know that it don't fit me I can't give you all that's in me 'Cause baby that's not me Don't want you to think that I'm selfish I'm just sick of your one track mess of you can't meet me Halfway I think it's time that you be on your way I love you but I can't baby If it's yo mama you want You know just what to do I looked in the mirror Everyday I saw myself Fading away You tryin' to mold be into her I loved you so I put you first but I can't live my life this way I can't sit and be passive Won't tolerate no more That's it I tried so hard to be What you wanted me to be If it can't be 50/50 Then know that it don't fit me I can't give you all that's in me 'Cause baby that's not me I was so lost in love before I couldn't see the light But now I'm strong enough to leave you now So you better treat me right Don't wanna throw it all away So baby Here's your last chance Don't wanna fight with you But I need more of you Give me all Or it's the end I cooked, I cleaned I washed your clothes You were so mean, so ungrateful at night I cried so many times Tell me how could you go diss me When you know one day you'll miss me If it can't be 50/50 Then baby that's not me I can't, I won't, I can't, won't
