Xlarence - Don't Mean To Be This Way

Be this way
I do not mean to be this way, I do not mean to be what you hate
I am not mean, can't put a smile on my face
I just can't see, I got no food on my plate
I did what I did about three times, I did what I did, can't tell you no lies
I did what I did the truth will rise
I did what I did I put that on my life
Like why you lie to me, why you did what you did was it frightening
Did it hurt your heart too cuz it hurt me
Yea no air to breathe I'm just stuck out sea
Man all of this here was supposed to be
Like A Boogie said, "aye come closer"
I'm just tryna feel a little bit of closure
To be honest I ain't even have the time to get to know ya
But it was for the better cuz you gave me paranoia
Call her Bille Jean like I'm Michael Jackson
Who said love don't hurt, yea she got to taxing
And she went and took my heart and got to relaxing
Yea I'm talking bout now, I ain't speaking on no past tense
Yea I swear that it's ok cuz I'm just gon stay this way
Gotta come up outta last, gotta make sure I win this race
And these girls yea they bad, but they gon give you long days
You think I'm lying you jus gon have to see it happen to your face
Like pain, hurt, regret and more
I don't even know the lead, I don't even know the score
I gotta make it out this room, gotta make it out this door
Yea I'm tired of crying tears on the floor
Everything I had was yours
You ain't even have to worry, you ain't have to do no chores
But now that you gone, I close the door
You couldn't see what we were anymore
I do not mean to be this way, I do not mean to be what you hate
I am not mean, can't put a smile on my face
I just can't see, I got no food on my plate
I did what I did about three times, I did what I did, can't tell you no lies
I did what I did and the truth will rise
I did what I did and I put that on my life
Put that on my life, yea I put that on my life
Yea cuz why you had to lie, yea breaking hearts every-time yea
Just take off the mask yea, let's sit back yea
Rewind take it back yea, yea I get back what I had
