I'm 'bout to keep you warm
I held you in my arms
And I try my best to be a man, do it all
Even though it don't look like it's in the plan anymore
I won't explain a damn thing
Baby, you was supposed to change your last name

And then it came all crashing down (oh-woah)
You was supposed to hold it down
And I was supposed to be there in the end
As your lover and a friend
But I just got one question
Was it something I did? (So wait, it's me)
What happened?
Oh, baby, don't know who we are right now
What's so different from back then?
I don't know who we are right now

I told you everything, you told me parts of you (yeah)
You gave me all the pain and I gave my heart to you
If that's the exchange
Then I'm makin' a change, you're still hopin' that
If it ain't the same, better off we're estranged
Wow, hold me back (hold me back)
Things I heard, I can't unhear
Things I saw won't disappear
Chips are down just like your tears
We were solid through the years

And then it came all crashing down (oh-woah)
You was supposed to hold it down
And I was supposed to be there in the end
As your lover and a friend
And I still got one question
Was it something I did?
(I don't know what I did, so wait, it's me)
What happened?
Oh, baby, don't know who we are right now
What's so different from back then?
I don't know who we are right now

Note to self, be truthful even when it hurts
Make love and pray often
Eat healthy
Never reveal your true financial status
Read lots of books
Add color to everything you touch
And give without expecting anything in return
