[Intro] Yo, it's ya boy Rush You see, one of the hardest thing to do in the world Is to trust somebody, the reason it's so hard to do Is because most of the time, we don't even trust ourselves Yo, yeah, here me out [Verse 1] They say diamonds are forever, so you get her diamonds And hope you stay together, you're so insecure For her to love you back, cause all you could ask in her But love can k** slow like a f**ing ma**acre And I have my doubts, that you'll be by my side when the sky's full of clouds I hate it, how it sounds, and I been betrayed by the girls I dated And I really hate it cause my love has faded cause Everybody lies and deceives I've been lied to so much I could never believe I'd rather leave than be sad and grieve cause my heart is broken It's hard to get along with me, I'm outspoken I've been hurt so much, that's why I'm so aggressive And I've lost so much, that's why I'm so possessive And I'm so hard to touch, that's why I'm so defensive They say love don't cost a thing but it's so expensive [Hook] Here's a promise ring (I promise everything) I promise anything (Just take the promise ring) Baby promise (That you'll always wear it) And I promise to keep my promises (I swear it) Here's a promise ring (I promise everything) I promise anything (Just take the promise ring) Baby promise (That you'll always wear it) And I promise to keep my promises (I swear it) [Verse 2] If you don't love nobody, then nobody can hurt you But if nobody loves you, then why nobody want you They only see your inperfection, if you're not a perfect person, nobody shows you their affection You just want to scream, this life is so unfair But why would you scream cause ain't nobody there Baby, don't nobody care, we're lost in our own identity Crazy life, close to insanity I don't trust people, it's my insecurities You say you're love's real, I'm like sure it is And you show me this, you fly like a stewardess But when sh** gets rough, would you stay true to this And I've been through to this way too many times When I rap you feel the pain in my rhymes Every girl tells me that she's different, until we get a little close, she wants to be a little distant [Hook] [Verse 3] They say love is pure, but I think it's kind of filthy To love somebody who don't love you back, we're guilty This love sh** hurts, it can drive a man insane But it means that I'm alive, if I can still feel the pain I never open up, my emotions are blood shut Nothings really promised but I'm gonna take a gut shot Hold on baby, don't talk, just listen I swear if you ever do me wrong I'll disappear like a magician Cause I'm dead loyal to the bone But if you do me wrong, make my blood boil, then I'm gone Goodbye, see you later, adios And you don't have to break up with me, I promise to leave you first Hold on, my emotions got the best of me From this point on you can have the rest of me They say time is money, will you invest in me But I got a question, would you answer me [Hook]
