Not For Long

Out of all the mistakes you made, I still stayed

Even though it's the bed that you made, I still laid

Never wanted anything for bein' loyal to ya

Just wanted a guarantee you was gonna love me

I see I was wrong

In the beginning, it was hard to realize that we were ending

I was in denial all along

Now it's time for me to move on

I reached my limit

Felt like I was the only one givin'

Finally hit me that we're done

Guess I found out the hard way

That I'm strong, oh

It's okay for me to be hurt, but not for long (Ooh, yeah)

Sometimes I might forget my worth, but not for long (Oh, whoa)

I'ma remind myself that

You gon' be mad when I bounce back, yeah

I know sometimes I put you first, but not for long (Ooh)

I done made a three-sixty turn

I don't get the same chills when you call no more

No, in and out of my life, like revolvin' doors

I'm no longer yours, no

Just a bad habit I had to break

I learned, for my love, you're my last mistake, oh

I think it's safe to say that we have run our course, oh whoa

In the beginning, it was hard to realize that we were ending

I was in denial all along

Now it's time for me to move on

I reached my limit

Felt like I was the only one givin'

Finally hit me that we're done

Guess I found out the hard way

That I'm strong, oh

It's okay for me to be hurt, but not for long (Ooh, yeah)

Sometimes I might forget my worth, but not for long (Oh, whoa)

I'ma remind myself that

You gon' be mad when I bounce back, yeah

I know sometimes I put you first, but not for long (Ooh)

At the end of the day, I found out I'ma be okay

I realize I'm alright livin' life, doin' things my way

At the end of the day, I found out I'ma be okay

I realize I'm alright livin' life, doin' things my way

It's okay for me to be hurt, but not for long (Not for long, not for long)

Sometimes I might forget my worth, but not for long (No, whoa)

Imma remind myself that (Self that)

You gon' be mad when I bounce back (Yeah, yeah)

I know sometimes I put you first, but not for long, no

But not for long
