Let Him Go

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Uhh, yeah, feel this Okay, no more drama that's what she sayin' Been dealing with the same broke nigga since sixteen But now she's 23 feeling strong ready to skate But something inside her tellin' her to hit the breaks See she grew up with both Bs and wanted that so B For her own shorty so she stuck around knowing he Was never going to be a good father to her son In front of him rolling weed flashing his gun Now momma doing all she could trying to bring him up good Doing all she can trying to raise her lil man With minimum help, give him the belt when he bad Working two jobs playing mom and dad Making sure that he has everything she ever had Plus more thats so raw so don't feel sad See you gotta sacrifice so you all can have a better life And when he show up at the door girl be strong and let him go [Hook] Look I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go [Verse 2] Okay, this time around, things gonna change No more messing with me playing hoe games That's what she told herself when she took him back And momma always said never date a boy that slap Throw the facts out the window when it comes to love Treated her like a queen for the first couple months And that was just enough to rope her in Had her feeling like us against the world 'til the end But the situation switches when he humping extra women Now he saying that he different and he wants us to forgive him But, but, she don't know if she should believe him But something inside her really thinks that she needs him, around But cheating really brought her down And occasionally he manages to make her smile Sometimes the jonesin' gets him crawling back But my advice to you girls is keep from falling back And let him go [Hook] I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go You just gotta let 'em go You just gotta let 'em go I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go [Verse 3] Yeah I made my mistakes Broke a couple hearts Had my heart smashed into itty bitty parts Pieces of the soul when the sun dry it cold Nothing comes down this road, this is how the spirit grows And if you near it know, it might not last forever But, that, might be for the better Check the weather when it's storming is your fella your umbrella Or are you in the rain all alone feeling fed up This the end of the romantics I feel you in the chest Yes, there's still some good brothers left They say you gotta go through it to get to it for sure And if he don't appreciate, you gotta let him go [Hook] I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go I ain't saying i'm perfect by any means I'm just trying to live right and get out my dreams I ain't saying that I plainly know, but sometimes you just gotta let him go
