Pretend

[Intro]
I've been on the highway
Thinking 'bout the times, babe, that we had
Foot on the gas said I'll never look back
But now you, you got a boyfriend
I've been alone since - we were just poison
It's gonna be hard for me to love again
And find someone who truly understands

[Verse 1]
But see shawty, I can't even breathe, shawty
It's hard for me to stay but it's harder to leave, shawty
I fiend a little bit, got me wanting to keep shawty
Start to argue, all of sudden I am underneath shawty
She a party hat - shit, I'll be obese like a heart attack
Niggas hear my shit and say, "I wanna be a part of that"
If they ain't my dawgs then they start to be a copycat
I'm scared to surround myself with other niggas that wanna rap
'Cause this hurt - I feel good
And go home, listen to Biggie and then feel hood
So strange as a child, used to wish I could
Since you, all I'm tryna do is feel real good, it's crazy

[Chorus]
And I still can't believe
Tell me, have you ever had to question your love? Hey
'Cause it's so hard to hear
Baby, tell me all of this
Was our loving just pretend?

[Verse 2]
Yeah, look shawty, the hatred that I breathe
Has only been a part of me for these three latest weeks
I love to put it on myself, but baby, as it seems
I did everything for you, but you ain't do nothing for me
You can do nothing with ease, I just wanted to please you
I would drive across the city only to see you
Looking at it now, I can tell that it's see through
Said you want love but I never believed you and

[Chorus]
And I still can't believe
Tell me, have you ever had to question your love? Hey
'Cause it's so hard to hear
Baby, tell me all of this
Was our loving just pretend?

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
Yeah, and she says I'm rude
But that's not fair
See, I would take her anywhere
But trust me, I know what it's like to be alone
Ooh, but she says I'm rude
But that's not fair
See, I would take her anywhere
Just don't wanna be alone

[Chorus]
And I still can't believe
Tell me, have you ever had to question your love? Hey
'Cause it's so hard to hear
Baby, tell me all of this
Was our loving just pretend?

[Outro]
Ooh, the love, the love
Can I get witness?
Can I get witness? yeah
I believe in me
