Promises

You promised you would stay, I watched you leave
You promised it was me and only me
You promised you would never let me sink
You promised if we fell, I wouldn't break
I wish you never promised

You were sellin' dreams and I believed
Had me focused on the goals we could achieve
Had me thinkin' I had finally found my peace
Makin' promises you know you couldn't keep
Another broken promise

I was so in love with you
I could never cut you loose
This high feel like what drugs would do
Two codeine, no substitute
But times got hard
We fell apart
You broke my heart

Me and you had passion
I was blinded by attraction
You can stop the actin'
All the fakin', all the cappin'

I put down my guard
My trust is gone
Why'd I start?

You got what you wanted
Now you back on your feet
You got what you wanted
And forgot about me
You got what you wanted
Still ain't got what I need
You got what I wanted
Now it's back to my dreams

You promised you would stay, I watched you leave
You promised it was me and only me
You promised you would never let me sink
You promised if we fell, I wouldn't break
I wish you never promised

You were sellin' dreams and I believed
Had me focused on the goals we could achieve
Had me thinkin' I had finally found my peace
Makin' promises you know you couldn't keep
Another broken promise

You promised you would stay, I watched you leave
You promised that you'd stay solid, watched you fold
My heart I cannot let you hold
You promised me you would keep it safe
Shit started changin' as soon as you got the code to the safe
You told me that you my ride or die
Then you killed my love, that's a homicide
I thought this shit was deep, I tried to scuba dive
But that shit was shallow, nigga barely got his feet wet
Can't believe I was really trynna put you on legit
They told me you was fake and I ain't listen

There's so many red flags you was givin'
It's another broken promise
And when you cross my mind, I'm thinkin'
Fuck you, I'm just bein' honest
Promised you'd stay, I watched you leave
Another broken promise

You promised you would stay, I watched you leave
You promised it was me and only me
You promised you would never let me sink
You promised if we fell I wouldn't break
I wish you never promised

You was sellin' dreams and I beleived
Had me focused on the goals we could achieve
Had me thinkin' I had finally found my peace
Makin' promises you know you couldn't keep
Another broken promise
