[Verse 1: Keato]

Damn, what a lovely night

Bitta wine and my girl here by my side

Candlelight I feel good tonight

No spite in sight we're gunna be alright

It always starts so well

Blue eyes and wedding bells

Our paths were parallel

Under a spell

Whoops, that took a turn

Hit the point of no return

Like a Roger Federer serve, whose fault?

A cause for concern honey pass the salt

Barely adults yet, can't get commitment involved yet

Not grown yet, just going through the process

She said 'Wow, that was cold. You could've fooled me you had a fucking soul. You couldn't play your role? Did you lose control? Am I limiting your ability to reach your goals?' (woah)

'You just gave it all up like that

All we fucking had at the drop of a hat'

True, but my heart and my gut said leave

Had to wear that on my sleeve

Felt uneven for weeks, but I found relief

'Damn dude you just became that prick I resent.'

Fine next time I'll fucking stay and just pretend I'm content (nah)


[Hook: Keato]

Hanging on for the sake of our hearts

Hanging on for the sake of our minds, well I lost mine

The last thing I wanted to do was waste our time

But according to you, I crossed a line


[Verse 2: Samson]

You’ve heard the end lets take you to the beginning

Based on a fake story but I hope you find the meaning

Let me set the scene, like any 18th another crazy evening, beer pong, beer bong

Listening to the same songs, but this night was something to remember

Not another mundane night in September

Its one I’ll never forget but will always regret

When I see you on the dance floor you leave me in a trance for a moment in my zone and you're the one I’d chance my hand on

You move like youre feening for me, and like a broom to the leg you had me swept off my feet

Tryna build the confidence to enter your aura

You're not Amy Shark but you should know I adore ya

I'm not Jimmy Carr one-liners won't court ya, you’re way too classy for that

Take my hipocritic oath cause you could be something serious

Your body says smoking but your eyes say mysterious

Think and rethink and I’ll be here forever

Why can’t I just be witty or clever?

Time is of the essence to be brutally honest, I make my way over though I am no Adonis

I look into her eyes and see all I’ve ever wanted and I’ve instantly fallen in love

Now we’re grinding like I do on the beat by Keats, and after tonight you won’t be on your feet for weeks

We’re getting down like Books and Shaolin, friends leaving but I won’t throw the towel in

Been 30 minutes on the d-floor and my knees sore from bouncing up and down like a see-saw

I’m sweating profusely but now is the opportune time to use this term loosely

I say, 'Hey Samson's my name. Try not to be intimidated by my fame. Playing less than 5 minutes and I've changed the game.'

'Do I look like I give a fuck?'

'No but that hasn't deterred me before.'

Judging by her face I can tell that she's bored

I find those four words i've been searching for

"Wanna take the tour?"

Our conversational give and take is something to see

I’m actually in with a shot here you’d have to agree

Punching hard Rocky IV Drago V Creed

We enter the bed room this is hard to believe

Under the sheets, KKK

I ask for a kiss she says no way

Shit's darker than every single shade of grey

I can tell that she' s definitely worth the wait

Time passes and we're living together, sticking together like it's a hot day and your jacket is leather

That's what good waffles do, and I know you got an ego I'm sorry el nino Gambino, gave it away

Like passing it to D-rose, spit real shit not gun noises, Migos now we sidetracked, lets get back to the matter of fact

You cheated on me two months in had no time to react

You said we weren’t exclusive but bitch you were elusive I wish I could’ve seen all the signs and the clues if I’d known the late nights were date nights I could’ve played it right and saved the fights

Another night you come home high as hell, sweatier than Trump at a Taco Bell

As you can tell I’m headed for the door Can’t take anymore this is the last straw


[Hook: Keato]

Hanging on for the sake of our hearts

Hanging on for the sake of our minds, well I lost mine

The last thing I wanted to do was waste your time

But you, you crossed a line


[Verse 3: Samson]

Must be a nice guy always finish last

You're Jason Alexander clinging to the past - hope you had a blast

I'm just glad it's over now, you'll move on fast though, and find another guy to plow

Elegance ain't your forté, Imma go my own way

Fleetwood Mac a bitch, would've worked if I was rich

You wanted to get hitched, you faked that you were pregnant

It won't make you enceinte, you're the reason it went stagnant

This ain't the notebook it's the taming of the shrew

Take years to name all the things I hate about you

Harder to decypher than Zodiac, when we were together you were Biff I'm the almanac

Never thought I’d trust someone trust someone so much to have it all just turn to dust

But it was everyday monotony, not a thriller its on repeat

Spend more money MCFC, I’ve gotta break free like Queen

You betrayed me like KD or Jay Z, MVP lemonading like crazy, you really think youll replace me thats ok see (OKC) I’ll get the whole world to embrace me

Guess I’m better unfettered by the one that I’ve bedded, instead of headed to be wedded, and led to a dead end where I’ve pled to get beheaded, boy I’m glad that i said it

I make my own luck, all you do is be two-faced

You aren't an outcast I hope you know that your poo stanks

Taking laxatives backwards shit spilling through your teeth

You're a joker with no Oscar ain't got nothing on Heath

You go both ways like a palindrome

I've got more flow than an Edgar Allen Poe(m)

I'm over you bitch that's all that's left to say

And Video Games aren’t just for Lana Del Rey, no
