  • Would've came back for you
    I just needed time to do what I had to do
    Caught in the life, I can't let it go
    Whether that's right, I will never know

    Hope you forgive me, never meant wrong
    Tried to be patient, waited too long
    But I would've came back
    But I would've came back for you (uh, would've came)
    Would've came back, would've came back (would've came)

    I talk slicker than a pimp from Augusta
    Who just had his linen suit dry-cleaned
    Bitches, what's up with y'all?
    I hate calling the women bitches, but the bitches love it
    I took some sense and made a nickel of it
    I'm urging all daughters to kiss their mothers
    With those lips that all that lipstick covers
    You're never too grown up to miss and hug her
    And girls counting on me to be there like missing rubbers
    I'm on some Marvin Gaye shit, a bunch of distant lovers
    This ain't the life that I'm used to
    Reintroduced to people I've been introduced to, did you forget me?
    Or are you too scared to tell me that you met me
    And fear that I won't remember?
    I wish you could still accept me for me
    I miss Memphis, Tennessee, my cousins, my dad
    The simplistic beauty that all of them Southerners have
    I'm halfway across the world with dozens of bags
    Feeling like all four members of Color Me Badd
    In one nigga, amazing shit
    I got that Courtney Love for you, that crazy shit
    I don't drink every bottle I own, I be aging shit
    And I got them wedding ring flows, that engaging shit
    Which one of y'all got fleets on your key chains?
    The seats for these Heat games?
    I really think that you stare at yourself and you see things
    La Familia, I've been inducted and instructed
    To stunt on these niggas we don't really fuck with, fuck is up?
    Having lunch and debating Ferrari prices
    23 and going through a midlife crisis
    But trust me, I still deliver like a midwife
    And no, I'm not saying I'm the nicest, I just live life like it
    Uh, it take a certain type of man to teach
    To be far from hood, but to understand the streets
    I never threw away that paper with my Grammy speech
    Because I haven't hit the pinnacles I plan to reach
    Yeah, you gotta own it if you want it
    Kisses all on her body, she tells me live in the moment
    And, baby, I'll never forget none of that
    Girl, I told you I was coming back

    Would've came back for you
    I just needed time to do what I had to do
    Caught in the life, I can't let it go
    Whether that's right, I will never know

    Hope you forgive me, never meant wrong
    Tried to be patient, waited too long
    But I would've came back
    But I would've came back for you (uh, would've came)
    Would've came back, would've came back (would've came) Writer/s: Aubrey Drake Graham, Erik Ortiz, Kevin Crowe
