[English]

They say what goes around comes around

And I know I made mistakes and you forgave me how

I don't understand, you know I'm trying the best I can

I guess it's consequences when you dealing with sin

And even scarified your friends over me

All them nights in the club turn to nights with me

It's like the same old story out your diary

Memories never fade, but in only time we'll see

Hope to see you with me 'cause

My heart beats, for you, girl you know you are the one

Why you mad at me? Girl I know I made mistakes, I know I fucked up

But my heart beats for you baby I'mma go 'head scream it loud

But if you leave there's something I can't control

So let's do it one last time, a fuck for the road

Gripping and biting, remember the times after fighting

You said you love me, I liked it, became obsessed with the sexing

You screaming "who's is it", we naked

I'm pullin' your hair told you take it

A couple of shots, now we faded

Don't even know we made it, we home

Got that look in your eyes like hope you mines

Said you hoped the feeling's real

Really tired of all the lies

One minute we fine, then we not

Everything I do you can't but that's no reason for making mistakes

This time put it all on the plate

Told you be loyal, spoil you, never disown you

You get lonely when I'm touring just hold it down be supportive

I'll be back in the morning that new purse you wanted

What's good if you can't flaunt it, flaunt it show it

Ain't the same, better than the rest

And what's real love if you ain't got respect?

And there's no way I can pay you back

But my plan is to make you understand

Make you understand that

My heart beats, for you, girl you know you are the one

Why you mad at me? Girl I know I made mistakes, I know I fucked up

But my heart beats for you baby I'mma go 'head scream it loud

But if you leave there's something I can't control

So let's do it one last time, a fuck for the road

All I ever wanted was your happiness

But right now let's get right down to it, let's handle this business

If you gonna leave me tonight, I gotta kiss it goodbye

Girl I'm bout to make it cry, and all I need is one more time 'cause my

Last time, best time, better than my next time

Rolex invest time, Moet it's sex time

Hard to let go, a part of you gon' be alone

Scrolling your phone, looking at texts, seems like not too long ago

Ain't the same better than the rest

And what's real love if you ain't got respect?

And it's no way I can pay you back

But my plan is to make you understand

Make you understand that

My heart beats, for you, girl you know you are the one

Why you mad at me? Girl I know I made mistakes, I know I fucked up

But my heart beats for you baby I'mma go 'head scream it loud

But if you leave there's something I can't control

So let's do it one last time, a fuck for the road
