Yesterday

Yesterday I said my prayer for you
Now I feel that I won't be by your side
Yesterday I said my prayer for you
When I realised, this is my goodbye

Yeah, have you ever been dumped
By a best mate, or even by a friend that you got?
Well, you've been getting 'em wrong
They put a knife in your back to get ahead in their job
You've been definitely getting it wrong
All this hatred, where the hell have they been gettin' it from?
Every time you succeed, like you're setting 'em up
It's like your life is something that they're envious of

Don't get jelly when they win though
Anytime they killin' go and cheer for 'em
Don't be happy when they get low
Hit 'em up and let them know you're here for 'em
Throwing hands, what you getting ready for?
Never been a friendship where there's never any flaws
In the rulebook there's forever been a clause
Never bring a life down just to get ahead in yours
Yo, tell 'em

Yesterday I said my prayer for you
Now I feel that I won't be by your side
Yesterday I said my prayer for you (said my prayer for you)
When I realised, this is my goodbye

I feel that I
Realise
My goodbye
It's my goodbye

Yeah, I know it hurts to get backstabbed
Your first reaction, you wanna go and stab back
It doesn't work, there's nothin' worse
It's undeserved, now they're spreadin' lies and it fuckin' hurts
They probably did it out of vanity
What's killin', they were meant to be your family
The shit'll burn, but give 'em worse
Live and learn, swallow your pride and be the bigger person

That's the problem with friendly competition
Only gonna end as opposition
You don't ever wanna get in that position
Tell 'em but they never gonna listen
Yeah, if you do that's some shit that you'll regret it
Either isn't gonna end well or isn't gonna end
Forgive 'em, start wishin' 'em the best
'Cause while they prayin' that you fail, go and hit 'em with success
It'll kill 'em

You gotta know, you gotta know
How you've betrayed me
And you wanna know, you wanna know
I hope you make it
Until you grow, until you grow
Out of this hatred
You'll never know, you'll never know
Until you change it

Yesterday I said my prayer for you
Now I feel that I won't be by your side (by your side)
Yesterday I said my prayer for you (said my prayer for you)
When I realised, this is my goodbye

I feel that I
Realise
My goodbyes
My goodbye
I feel that I
Realise
My goodbye
It's my goodbye
