I don't wanna be the one to turn and walk away
I still feel you in my heart but I just can't stay
I ain't nobody's fool I know just what I'm worth
I know what I want what I need what I feel that I deserve
You said you wanna be someone said you wanna get out the game
And I'm hearing all your talk but I ain't seein' no change
You say you wanna grow with me and uplift each others minds
But baby all you showing me is you wasting your time

I just gotta let you know
I don't want nobody else
I just wanna see you grow
But I can't help you if you won't help yourself
I just gotta let you know
I don't want nobody else
I just gotta let you go
Cause I can't help if you won't help yourself

I have always told you that I'm happy bein' second best
To your baby girl but I ain't having your baby mumma stressed
Her childness her intent is obvious
And nigga the way you deal with her you follin' with my trust

Now boy it's really killin' me you don't have to say a word
I see the sorrow in your eyes in my soul I feel your hurt
I'm guessing it's your pride that keeps your pain so deep inside
But it's stressin' questionin' how you feel and why you hide

I just gotta let you know
I don't want nobody else
I just wanna see you grow
But I can't help you if you won't help yourself
I just gotta let you know
I don't want nobody else
I just gotta let you go
Cause I can't help if you won't help yourself
