something you forgot lyrics

I've been lonely, I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending and that's all I can do
(That's all I can do, mama)
The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart
(I hope you hear me)

Pain, since I've lost you, I'm lost too
Nigga feelin' like he at the bottom like a horse shoe
Sorry for the trouble that I put you and your heart through
God knows that I'd do anything for a part two

Or to be prayin' for the day you come back to me
Sayin' that you forgive me
Give me another chance, I'm needin' it like a kidney

I don't wanna advance, give me back her hands
Give me back her touch, I don't ask for much but I fucked up
I know I fucked up, I admit I fucked up but everybody fuck up
Now this other nigga lucked up
Tellin', me and my clique don't give a fuck

'Cause, um, we from New Orleans, she was from Georgia
She was my down chick, I was her soldier
I was her gangsta, she was my shoulder
You were the pistol to my holster
Bang!

You've been hiding, never letting it show
Always trying to keep it under control
(I see you hidin' it, mama)
You got it down and you're well on your way to the top
(Keep doin' your thing)
But there is something you forgot

You forgot about the house, you forgot about the ring
I remember everything, I just wanna hear you sing
I remember the love, right after the fights
You can't tell me you don't remember those nights

And if I would cry, then you would cry twice
To me you are the brightest star under sunlight
See, take away my title, take away my stripes
You give me back my girl and you give me back my life
Give me back my girl and you give me back my life

See this is just a nightmare, so I blink twice
Open up my eyes hopin' she'd be in my sight
I remember the time, I wish I could bring it back
What she mean to me, is what I mean to rap
(What I mean to rap)

You've been hiding
(Y'know)
Never letting it show
Always trying
(I see you hidin' it, mama)
To keep it under control
(But I know you know)

You got it down
(I know you do)
And your well on your way to the top
(But I wish you and yours
Nothin' but happiness, shawty)

But I hope you haven't forgot about me
Up in the livin' room watchin' Sports Center
You were cookin' dinner, I was such a sinner
But the Lord is a forgiver

You know they say if you pray
Then you can get your blessings ordered and delivered
And your boyfriend is not like me
Ma, you even went and got a teardrop like me

I remember we would sit at home all day
You called me 'Butta', I called you 'Babe'
My momma asked about you, my partners did too
I know your daughter will be so amazin', like you

And I know you probably wish you never met me
And I just wish you never forget me and let me say
Please don't worry 'bout the women I have been with
No engagement can amount to your friendship
And I hope that nigga know he got a queen and all I can do is dream Damn!

I've been lonely, I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending and that's all I can do
The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart
