Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be a part of this same struggle no longer
Baby comes knockin' on my door, I hide behind the sofa
I remember, ten years younger, I didn't have a problem
I wish I could be there again, I wish that we could'a stayed friends
[Verse 2]
Why do you wanna stay friends?
I really don't mean no offense (Oh, no)
She'd leave you if you had the chance
If you didn't pick her up in yo Benz (Oh, no)
[Verse 3]
Would she hold you down, I think no, sir
A gold digger, I already told ya
Different guys that just fucked up her culture
So, why you keep gettin' involved for?
[Verse 4]
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved with those games
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved
[Verse 5]
Why you keep gettin' involved?
Gettin' involved
Why you keep gettin' involved?
Gettin' involved
[Verse 6]
Lately, it seems, wherever I go, that trouble will follow
Now every night, I'm lockin' my doors and closin' my windows
I remember, ten years younger, there's no problems
I wish I could be there again, yeah, I wish that we could'a stayed friends
[Verse 7]
I ain't like your other friends
I ain't sittin' on the fence (Oh, no)
Too blind to see what she doin'
But, I can see through her pretense (Oh, no)
[Verse 8]
So, brother, come on, don't be foolish (No)
I'm your boy, I'm not gon' let you do this
I know you understand what the truth is
Brush your chick off, let her hand in her notice
[Verse 9]
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved with those games
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved
[Verse 10]
Why you keep gettin' involved?
Gettin' involved
Why you keep gettin' involved?
Gettin' involved
[Verse 11]
Maybe you was right
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I've been far too close
To see what's goin' on
[Verse 12]
That don't change the situation
You don't need no education
Sittin' there procrastinating
I'll be off, I'll see you later
[Verse 13]
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved with those games
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved
[Verse 14]
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved with those games
Why I gotta get involved?
Keep gettin' involved, gettin' involved
