I’ve been through enough shit
And I normally don’t speak on it
But now it’s time for me to tell my story and you gon listen
Oh lord
Started off deep in love
I was lost til I found out who you really were
Now I know that no picture is perfect
But I don’t think that it can get much worser
Than you’re when you’re bad
When you’re drunk and you’re mad
Talkin all out yo neck
Thinkin I’m gon forget
But I ain’t bitter or mad
Cuz I let all that shit go
Mama ain’t raise no fool
You can let the next nigga know
You can’t break me, cause you didn’t make me
Cuz I can do bad by myself (I don’t need you)
Bad by myself (said I’m leavin)
Bad by myself
Bad by myself
Cut this fire

Now I can cry and be bitter
I’m not into wasting my time
Oh I know I’m a real, real, real good woman
So I bet a man won’t be hard to find
Believe me, I don’t even think you need me
After shows you be chasing after
All the hoes instead of trying to see me
But that’s in the past cause I let all that shit go
Mama ain’t raise no fool
You can let the next nigga know
You can’t break me, cause you didn’t make me
'Cause I can do bad by myself (I don’t need you)
Bad by myself (said I’m leavin)
Bad by myself
Bad by myself
I sure hate you in this way but after all the pain boy
There is no other out there for me
I was happy before you came along
I’ll be fine when you’re gone
Still it hurts because I thought you were the one

Now I ain’t surprised that you would take shit this far
Thank God I know exactly who you are
Am I flawless? No
Did I do it? Yes
Now that don’t erase my mistakes
But I’m man enough to admit
Oh, I
See we got kids and a house, we’re a family
I know I ain’t perfect, but we’re worth it
Baby understand me
'Cause those that pray together gonna stay together
So let’s forget the past and make our future better
Baby, I wouldn’t make it if you leave me
'Cause I would do bad by myself
(Baby I forgive you)
'Cause I don’t want no one else
(I’m not leaving you)
Tried to leave me and I almost went crazy
Oooh, I’mma step outside and take me a smoke break
Woman I’m not gon let you drive me crazy
Woah I, no naw
Sometimes a man makes mistakes
Oh, oh, oh I
Now when I get back have my tacos ready
You crazy mutherfucker
Tired of this shit
You know goddam well I’m not going nowhere
Said I’m trying my best
