25 To Life

Too late for the other side

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

Too late for the other side

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

Too late

(Yeah, I can't keep chasing you

I'm taking my life back)

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

I don't think she understands the sacrifices that I've made

Maybe if this bitch had acted right I woulda stayed

But I've already wasted over half my life, I woulda laid

Down and died for you, I no longer cry for you, no more pain

Bitch, you took me for granted

Took my heart and ran it straight into the planet

Into the dirt, I can no longer stand it, now my respect, I demand it

I'ma take control of this relationship, command it

And I'ma be the boss of you now, goddamn it

And what I mean is that I will no longer let you control me

So you better hear me out, this much you owe me

I gave up my life for you, totally devoted to you I have stayed

Faithful all the way, this is how I fuckin' get repaid?

Look at how I dress, fuckin' baggy sweats, go to work a mess

Always in a rush to get back to you, I ain't heard you yet

Not even once say you appreciate me, I deserve respect

I've done my best to give you nothin' less than perfectness

And I know that if I end this I'll no longer have nothin' left

But you keep treatin' me like a staircase: it's time to fuckin' step

And I won't be comin' back, so don't hold your fuckin' breath

You know what you've done, no need to go in-depth

I told you you'd be sorry if I fuckin' left

I laughed while you wept, how's it feel now?

Yeah, funny, ain't it? You neglected me

Did me a favor, though, my spirit free you've set

But a special place for you in my heart I have kept

It's unfortunate, but it's...

Too late for the other side

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

(Yeah, can't take no more)

Too late for the other side

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

I feel like when I bend over backwards for you, all you do is laugh

'Cause that ain't good enough

You expect me to fold myself in half 'til I snap

Don't think I'm loyal, all I do is rap

How can I moonlight on the side? I have no life outside of that

Don't I give you enough of my time? You don't think so, do you?

Jealous when I spend time with the girls

Why I'm married to you still? Man, I don't know

But tonight I'm serving you with papers

I'm divorcing you – go marry someone else and make 'em famous!

And take away their freedom like you did to me

Treat 'em like you don't need 'em and they ain't worthy of you

Feed 'em the same shit that you made me eat

I'm moving on, forget you

Oh, now I'm special? I ain't feel special when I was with you

All I ever felt was this helplessness, imprisoned by a selfish bitch

Chew me up and spit me out, I fell for this

So many times it's ridiculous

And still I stick with this, I'm sick of this

But in my sickness and addiction, you're addictive as they get

Evil as they come, vindictive as they make 'em

My friends keep askin' me why I can't just walk away from

I'm addicted to the pain, the stress, the drama

I'm drawn to shit, I guess I'm a

Mess, cursed and blessed, but this time I

Ain't changin' my mind, I'm climbin' out this abyss

You're screamin' as I walk out that I'll be missed

But when you spoke of people

Who meant the most to you, you left me off your list

Fuck you, hip hop! I'm leavin' you

My life sentence is served, bitch, and it's just...

Too late for the other side

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

(I'm gone, man)

Too late for the other side

Caught in a chase, 25 to life

Too late

Caught in a chase, 25 to life
