I Can’t Believe

[Verse 1]
Put my best foot forward
So I don't get knocked down
You take me for granted
You think that I'll always be around?
What goes around comes around
One day I'll leave
And then you will see
How much you truly miss me
And even if you don’t
It doesn’t matter anyway
Theres clouds above my sky
But I'll see a better day
So do what you must
Be with another guy
What’d you think
I was gonna just lay down and die? (Hell nah)
I'll find someone new
Not like you
Someone to help me through
This time of weakness
Picking up my stress
Never realizing
That I don’t need you more or less
Its time for me to get on
And find some happiness
With someone that sees
That I’ll be there for her
As long she’s s always there for me
This pain I don’t need
So if you wanna leave
You know I’ll set you free
Just don’t come back to me
Erase you from my memory

[Chorus]
I can’t believe
That this is happening to me
You wanna leave?
Well then go ahead and leave
I'll set you free
Just don’t come back to me
Erase you from my memory
Erase you from my memory
(X2)

[Verse 2]
And all those times we argued
And it wasn’t my fault
But I told you I was sorry
So that it could be resolved
And sometimes I wish
That we had never met at all
You had me on my knees
But I would never crawl
Choosing your friends over your man
I should have known then
But now I know I can
Walk away from you
And leave you alone
Why did you have to break a happy home?
Go with the one
That you chose before me
And staying away from you
Is something I guarantee
You can’t take it back
Cause I made a decision
And now I’m taking off
Into a higher devision
Somebody like me
Won’t let nobody bring them down
And thats why I stay high
And I’ll never come down
And if I knew then
What I know now
I would’ve never stayed
Would’ve never stayed around

[Chorus]
I can’t believe
That this is happening to me
You wanna leave?
Well then go ahead and leave
I'll set you free
Just don’t come back to me
Erase you from my memory
Erase you from my memory
(X2)

[Verse 3]
I heard you say
You'll do better without me
If its true, get on
Cause all you do is doubt me
You stick around
Just to hold me down
Is what it seems
Because when I need you
You’re never there for me
Making up excuses
And telling all those lies
You think that I’m stupid?
I know theres stuff you hide
I'll give you my trust
But I'll never give you my pride
I'll keep you out of my life
And never let you back inside
You acted like you didn’t care
But now we’re gonna see
I know that one day
You will come running back to me
Eventually you'll be just a memory
Someone to forget
Someone not to sweat
Giving all these reasons
Now I know why I'm sad
Not because you left
Cause the girl I thought I had
I didn’t want to face it
Its something that I knew
But now I’m looking through
The eyes of a changed man’s view

[Chorus]
I can’t believe
That this is happening to me
You wanna leave?
Well then go ahead and leave
I'll set you free
Just don’t come back to me
Erase you from my memory
Erase you from my memory
(X2)

[Outro]
Thats right
You are looking through
The eyes of a changed man’s view
My eyes are wide open now
Its too late for you though
I'll find someone new
Erase you from my memory
