Betcha Gon' Know (The Prologue)
Oh welcome to a day of my lifeThe memoirs of an imperfect angelOh welcome to a day of my lifeThe memoirs of an imperfect angel
Though the lights were lowI could see you bothIn a lover's silhouetteAnd my heart stood stillI was froze right thereStaring down at her red dressSo I bolted out the doorJumped right into the carIt's too dangerousTo be in the vicinity of where you areRolled down all the windowsJust so I could breatheI can't believe you just actually did this shit to meI'm going bout a hundredMascara runninLaughing out of angerBut it don't strike me as funnyBeen too good to youI've been virtuous and trueTo have something like thisHappen in my own bedroom
Betcha Gon' Know oh how it feels(when I get you back)Betcha Gon Know oh how it feels(when your heart's been cracked)Betcha Gon Know oh how it feels(when we fade to black)How it feels for real
And you see your whole world collapseImma la-la-la-la-la-laughImma la-la-la-la-la-laughImma la-la-la-la-la-laugh right in your face boyBetcha Gon' Know oh how it feels
So I pulled to the sideOf the road to fix my faceBut I can't cover with make upWhat my tears want to eraseI wake up in a hazeMorning dew and sun raysAs I drive I hide my eyesBehind my black Cavalli ShadesA block from the houseSlowly creep in the drivewayTip toe through the doorBut you're there wide awakeYou're like "Where you been?"I'm like "Sorry, I fell asleep of Jasmine's sofa.I could've swore that Rae RaeCalled you and told ya"You're like "You okay"I'm like "I'm alright.Little sleep and I'll be fine."But if you only knewWhat was in the back of my mindYou already stungBut you really gon find out in time
[Chorus]

Baby, I had all the guns but not a word from youYou got me all crazy, somewhere down the line your gon get what you deserve..you fucking jerkYour were supposed to save me, my sweet babyNow we are fading away..but your gonna know how this feelsEven if it's the last thing I ever doTo be continued...
