City of Stars

I know that you think this song is for you I used to long for you and adore you My life was just fine way back before you Now when you reach out I just ignore you 'Cause this ain't a love song (woah) This is, "So long" You did me so wrong for so long For so long, so long No I never thought I could live my life without you All you ever seem to do is scream and make it all about you And so I doubt you I doubt you even know what's on my mind I said, I doubt you I doubt you even know why I left you behind I know that I've been living I know that I've been living I know that I've been living I know that I've been living In the city of stars, where there's flying cars A brand new home for everyone and even life on Mars In the city of stars, where there's flying cars A brand new home for everyone and even life on Mars 'Cause this ain't a love song (woah) This is, "So long" You did me so wrong for so long For so long, so long And so I doubt you I doubt you even know what's on my mind I said, I doubt you I doubt you even know how I left you Yeah, uh, yeah Much love to Def Jam, even though they under-shipped me Did me like Bobby did Whitney, but the fans was with me Know my name around the world, but it still ain't hit me All the talent in the world and they still don't get me I didn't talk about my race on the whole first album But black vs. white bullshit was the still the outcome How come these motherfuckers can't seem to let it go?
