Teddy Riley - Bye Baby lyrics

[Produced by Noah "40" Shebib & Salaam] [Hook] I guess you knew and blew a good thing, baby [Verse 1] Bye, baby, I guess you knew why I walked away When we walked to the altar, that was an awesome day Did counseling, couldn't force me to stay Something happens when you say I do, we go astray Why did we mess it up? We was friends, we had it all Reason you don't trust men, that was your daddy fault He in the grave – let it go, he no longer livin' Said you caught him cheating with Mom, f**ing other women f** that gotta do with us? Here's the keys to the newest truck Birkin bags, we burnin' cash, now baby, do it up No matter who you f**, that was before me Wanted you as my shorty since before I saw you screamin' Hate you so much right now, should've saw the meaning Angry black woman, actions of a demon, I'm leavin' [Hook] I guess you knew and blew a good thing, baby You know I'm saying bye-bye ‘Cause I'm saying bye-bye [Verse 2] Bye, baby, I guess you know why I had to leave Seven months in your pregnancy, 'bout to have my seed Let's take it back some years, rewind it to the happy years You and your Star Trak fam, I'm thinking you cats are weird Same time, different year, I was digging y'all flow Then I tatted you on my arm so n***as would know I thought no one could stop us, matching gold watches I was your Johnny Depp, you was my Janis Joplin Yet the cuter version, yet I knew you personally Better than you knew yourself – and I knew this for certain Crib in the Dominican, you got away from everybody You screaming at the racist cops in Miami was probably The highlight of my life, like "Ha! Yo, look at my wife!" Gangsta, me and 20 cops 'bout to fight Crazy night, bailed you out, next morning we got clean Like it never happened, and later we at that Heat game Just another day in the life of two people in love But it wasn't enough, so baby, guess what [Hook] [Verse 3] Listen, could you imagine writing your deposition Divorce lawyer telling you how this thing gonna be endin'? With you paying out the a** and I'm talking half Not some, but half, no, serious, half Half of your soul, half of your heart, you leaving behind It's either that or die, I wanted peace of mind And all I seen was selfish cowards Under their breath, saying, "Why did Nas trust her?" But look at yourself! Speak louder, bruh! You live with your baby moms And scared to make an honest woman out of her And make her your bride, fake pimps, you ain't even alive At least I can say I tried plus enjoyed the ride Plus we got our little boy, my little joy and pride He got my nose, my grill, your color, your eyes Next go round I hope I pick the truest type And watch me do it all again – it's a beautiful life, aight? Goodbye!
