lemme drop this truth bomb, mic check one two
Heard he was at that spot, the place we used to cruise
Pulled up to the restaurant, heart thumpin' a cold beat
Saw him at our table, with some new dude in his seat.
Walked right up beside him, ain't no tears gonna fall
Face stayed ice, composure tight, standin' ten feet tall
Looked him dead in the eyes, calm but the fire was brewin'
And laid this verbal smackdown, the truth he was due in:
(Chorus)
Yo, "Good as I was to you? Is this the payback, huh?
All those years we invested, just a shrug and a 'so what'?"
Did you think you just won? Smirkin', thinkin' you're the man?
Finally havin' your kicks? With him holdin' your hand?
He your fantasy fulfilled? Your ultimate design?
Yeah, he looks the part, but trust, he ain't got this love of mine.
He might look good, yeah, a dime in your sight,
But he won't ever be good as I was to you, night after night."
The whole damn room went silent, forks stopped mid-air
Every head turned our way, the tension you could wear
Even the waiter froze, mumbled 'bout another chair to bring
But I just shook my head, nah, this ain't my kinda sing.
Said, "Nah, I'm outta here," turned to make my grand exit
But one last shot fired, words with a venomous context:
"Honey," I called back, voice sharp like a shattered glass,
"Keep him. He's all yours. This ain't somethin' that will last."
(Chorus)
"Good as I was to you? Is this the payback, huh?
All those years we invested, just a shrug and a 'so what'?"
Is the game now 'lookin' out for number one', that's your new creed?
Didn't you think it through? Plantin' this selfish seed?
Yeah, he looks the part, a quick thrill, it's plain to see,
But he won't ever be good as I was to you, consistently.
Did you think you just won? Grinnin' like you struck gold?
Finally havin' your kicks? Story's gettin' old.
He your fantasy fulfilled? Your temporary high?
Yeah, he looks the part, but his love for you will die.
'Cause he might look good, play the role for a while,
But he won't ever be good as I was to you, with my genuine smile."
(Outro)
Mm, good as I was to you... You gonna learn, boo. You gonna learn. Word.
