lyrics

(Hook)
Verse 1: She's gone 'cause I left, it wasn't fair to stay / Now Ain't No Sunshine when she's gone, and she's always away / This house ain't a home, it's just where I stay / and I live with the fact I did her wrong everyday / No shame in my game, I'm ashamed how I behaved / I betrayed my own self, no one else to blame / What started when LeBron James became King / wouldn't remain through the Heat and end with a ring / It became apparent, we were different as our parents / and my heart began to put up a barricade / Went from watchin' games to playin 'em with each other / Pullin' on each other's heart strings like a puppet / So Many Tears like 'Pac up above us / Love is revolution, it's all in the struggle / of perseverin' through the worst times of trouble / and puttin' together a puzzle of lettin' someone love you
(Hook)
Verse 2: I'll go, you stay, this wasn't meant to be / I'm losin' more of myself every single day / We're both unhappy, as much as it hurts to say / It's like our chemistry blew up in our face / Maybe we both changed, for that I'll take blame / If I know one thing, it's that I'm not the same / I still look back on the impression you made / and think about the good times as much as the pain / It's like sometimes people need to part ways / just so they can be what they were destined to be / In the case of me, I wen't straight to that notepad / and started writin' what I would become known as / Rhyme titan, but wonder when I look back / if the sunshine I ever really looked at / and if the dark days since would still look black / if circumstances changed and I had you back
(Hook)
Verse 3: The day I got my things and left behind my key / the darkest cloud was above that house I had ever seen / It's like ever since its been followin' me / and when I see the sunshine that's how I know its a dream / When meanin' what I say and sayin' what I mean / started to get mistaken for me bein' mean / I questioned if our future was bright as it once seemed / or if our history was doomed to repeat / Sometimes that sunshine's so bright you can't see / and regardless who's right fights end in defeat / We thought we needed each other to be complete / At the same time best friends and worst enemies / Lookin' back now, in hindsight I see / that it took bein' blind to ever really see / and it took losin' faith for me to believe / that it took losin' you to really find me
(Hook)
