[Verse 4]Damn, I'm not unrealistic with none of my womenI tell them if they ain't with it then let's just forget itRelationships slowin' me down, they slow down the visionGuess I'm not in a position to deal with commitmentCertain people need to tell me they're proud of meThat mean a lot to meNot havin' closure, it take a lot out of meThis year for Christmas I just want apologiesSydney gave up on me when I went missin'Syn had a baby and treated me differentErika sued me and opened a businessWonder if they wish it could've been differentWonder what they'd do put in my positionI wonder, when my shit drop, do they listen?Wonder if they're second guessin' their decisionsI hate the number 2, that shit is unforgivenTryna satisfy everybodyIt's like they can't get enoughUntil enough is enoughAnd that is too muchYou tip the scale when I weigh my optionsWest Palm girls are spoiled rottenTiffany on you, you know you poppin'I'll kill somebody if they give you problemsMaster bedroom's where we get it poppin'Just ignore all the skeletons in my closetI'm a walkin' come-up, I'm a bank depositSell my secrets and get top dollarSell my secrets for a Range RoverOpportunity and temptationThey would sell my secrets for a tropical vacationSell my secrets back to me if I was payin'Who's gonna save me when I need savin'?Since Take Care, I've been caretakin'At second chances, that ain't how you livin'Redemption on your mind, I'll never be forgiven
