[Intro]
(Oh oh oh oh oh)
(La da da da da)


[Hook]
I tried, you tried, we tried

All of the times that we had together
We should of known nothing last forever(X2)


[Verse 1: J. Cole]
When this %#@! end, man it's gon get ugly
Real real ugly, your grandmama love me

And your mama love me, little sister hugs me
Even got a few homegirls that wanna $#&@ me
Soon as this %#@! end, forget about it

You been stayin' in my crib, you gotta get up out it
Cause if you layin' in my bed, let's admit about it
One time $#&@in' and we no longer upset about it

Cause when this %#@! ends it's either all or nothin'
I thought you loved me, how the hell you gon call ya cousin?
You know the diesel $$#, half slow, evil $$#

^!$$% in that Honda showin' up with that drama
On my mama, we been through it all
From the goods to the bads, rise to the fall

You done seen me at my best, seen me at my worst
So when this %#@! ends, know it's gon hurt


[Hook]

[Verse 2: J. Cole]

They say we won't last
I know you suspicious, but you don't ask
And I don't tell, that's where we both fell

A good ^!$$% gone bad
Good chick a lil mad as $#&@, she done had enough
I be, out here tryna raise my status up

But success bring (*##$es, and they bad as $#&@
Ass fat as $#&@, with a little ol' waist
I ain't want the whole meal, just a little ol' taste

Should have looked both ways fore I crossed you
I guess I never thought I could have ever have lost you
Now I'm out stuntin' with this (*##$, you ain't about nothin'

While some ^!$$% learnin' all the %#@! I taught you
Damn, guess you deserve that, a new start
But deep down you know we grew apart

Long before I broke your heart, if I lost your respect
I'm just hopin' you don't look at me as you somethin' you regret


[Hook]

[Verse 3: J. Cole]

I got your message I been meanin' to respond, know it's been awhile
Apologies, I ain't been around
I wanna kick it, but I know that %#@! is different now

And times have changed
Let me know if I'm out of bounds, are the lines the same?
I mean ya, lookin' good, yeah you still got it

Been reminiscin' and I'm not sure how I feel about it
Now we can say that all good things come to an end
But we know each other way too well to pretend

We went from friends to somethin' much more
To breakin' up to makin' up and $#&@in' once more
Second chances, we gave enough to finally

We gave it up, but some days I be wakin' up and wantin' one more
But what for? maybe it's just the weather
We break each others heart's, so maybe it's for the better

Holler whenever, cause you always got a friend in me
And nothin' lasts forever, least we got these memories
