Locksmith - I O U lyrics

[Hook x2: Locksmith] One time Never mind the past That was just one time Couldn't bear one time One more chance Bring it back one time [Verse 1: Locksmith] And I can't explain what it meant to me On the phone with my girl as she vents to me It made sense, what I consider past tense Had intense, but I pleaded ignorance in defense of me Like lady why you tripping In person it worsens, curses, screaming and kicking You drop your bag as you was leaving in that cab Turned around and threw a kiss off the gla** like Pippin Who are you to judge me, I cannot resolve this You probably the only true friend I'm still involved with But inside bitter, you told me that the day my mama died A piece of me died with her Yet and still you brought me back Never quit on whats real, you taught me that Life struggles and ills, we all react But I could never second guess where I'm at and I owe you that [Hook: Rebecca Nobel & Locksmith] The more I think about us, I realize You always were selfish How hard I tried The more you seem to doubt us I see whats right You'll always be like that One time [x2: Locksmith] One time Never mind the past That was just one time Couldn't bear one time One more chance Bring it back one time [Verse 2: Locksmith] And I agree its much deeper than the surface But as a man they teach you that's where your worth is So how can I judge a woman for her mind When all I try to do is front so I can push her from behind Life is not a cake walk, relationships are work That's what you used to tell me so how could I revert Back to where we started from and I thought I was the sh** Cause I came to a fist fight with a starter gun But got slapped in the face by reality After we hooked up, I thought we was living happily Actually what had happened was I was too distracted by a fantasy to even see what happy was f**ed around and gave you pain Then I turned around and gave you blame And I'm sorry for all of that But I grew after every single spat And I owe you that [Hook: Rebecca Nobel & Locksmith] The more I think about us, I realize You always were selfish How hard I tried The more you seem to doubt us I see whats right You'll always be like that One time [x2: Locksmith] One time Never mind the past That was just one time Couldn't bear one time One more chance Bring it back one time [Verse 3: Locksmith] And men are so emotionless with no heart Thought I could change, but I think I got a slow start No part of me, part of me you can part me Partially told a lie, you can see it, you was so sharp But so far, so good as far as we know And we know, men are only faithful to their egos Is that a weapon or a tool Let me prove, I'm an exception to the rule [Outro: Rebecca Nobel] The more I think about us, I realize You always were selfish How hard I tried One time
