Lyrics
how come you never called me again? i'm sitting right here, baby how have you been? i called 1, 2, times, text, did it send? did i miss a memo when it came to the end? i thought i was incredible; "man of the day" MVP, but then i got played. i guess i ain't the king, so what else can i say? am i the only one who's sees this everyday? like this we lost our pride. we think we're ready but we're not. others' wrongs, we're ready to call, but we never notice our flaws. kissing every mirror we see as if the world ought to be me. we retain the truth to our heads leaving things that need to be said. if the love we seek has been lost, if we can bring it back, at what cost? maybe we can give away hate. maybe tell them it's never too late. if we could only see through the eyes, of a man who's given up life to save the world with love, i don't believe He's given up on us. let's, like, play, like, let's play pretend. if i was your brother would you hurt me again. if i was your father would you love me again? if i was a human could you shoot me again? sin, it's a funny word that we made. calling out mistakes, bae, throwing out the shade blastin' out on blogs whom all with you layed then regretting all the tough hmm that you said. then again, this is what it is to be a man. flawed in every way, but able to forgive them. love them anyway, lending every helping hand. but we busy being everything other than human. cha, but here's the icing on the cake; who's the only man that we all really forsake? God taught to give, but religion's got it made? they take, they take, they take, and then they take.
