Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
I ride like a soldier, put nothin' before you
Anything you ask, I'll be right there to do it
But if I react, don't tell me to relax
Too late to take it back, 'cause boy, you put me through it
[Verse 3]
This circular motion is all we do
(All we do)
I'm so sick of goin' back and forth with you
(With you)
You should've been happy to have me
Said you wanted to have some kids, build a family
Now I, I wish it wasn't true (True)
It's killin' me to do (To do)
What I gotta do
The problem here is you (You)
Ain't nobody new (Ain't nobody new)
Not even my crew (Not even my crew)
Could take the place of you
The problem here is you
[Verse 4]
'Cause if you only knew what I felt for you
You would have held on tighter, fought a little harder
Been a little smarter and now you're gonna miss my love
And one day soon you'll see, you'll reach out for me
Boy, you had a keeper, didn't know how to treat her
Should've felt a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love
[Verse 5]
Kick it with your friends, go out with other chicks
Be all up in the mix, you got the right to do that
You wanna be a pimp, be treated like a prince
Go 'head and flip the switch
'Cause now you got your crown back (Oh)
[Verse 6]
This circular motion is all we do
(All we do)
I'm so sick of goin' back and forth with you
(With you)
You should've been happy to have me
Said you wanted to have some kids, build a family
Now I, I wish it wasn't true
It's killin' me to do, what I gotta do
The problem here is you
Ain't nobody new, not even my crew
Could take the place of you
The problem here is you, oh
[Verse 7]
'Cause if you only knew what I felt for you
You would have held on tighter, fought a little harder
Been a little smarter and now you're gonna miss my love
And one day soon you're gonna see
You'll reach, and you're gonna reach for me
Boy, you had a keeper, didn't know how to treat her
Should've felt a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love
[Verse 8]
My hugs and my kisses
You know you're gonna miss it
And while you're trippin' on the love we could have had
Movin' on, I've got to, it ain't no lookin' back
[Verse 9]
'Cause if you only knew what I felt for you
You would have held on tighter, fought a little harder
Been a little smarter and now you're gonna miss my love
And one day soon you'll see you'll reach out for me
Boy, you had a keeper, didn't know how to treat her
Should've felt a little deeper and now you're gonna miss my love
[Verse 10]
My love, my love
Yeah
[Verse 11]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 12]
See, boy, you had a keeper, but you didn't know how to treat her
