Take Advantage
She's holding on, hoping I'ma come around
But in my heart of hearts I know I'm not gon settle down
She's painting this perfect picture, but what she sees in her vision
Is not what I wanna give her, but yet and still I continue to
Lead her on, string along her fingers that linger on
I'd do anything for her, except put that ring up on
Her finger, or at least give her some type of commitment
But I keep her within distance, cause of her wishes to get it
And her feelings allow her to do whatever I tell her
And instead of letting her go, so she can find someone better
My selfish ass would rather keep her all to myself
I can't bare to see with nobody else
So I take advantage
Every opportunity's not meant for you to have it
Beware when you grab it, the ones you taking for granted
Cause one day you gon happen to notice you already had it
But it's gone cause you picked the wrong time to take advantage
I picked the wrong time to take advantage
I, I, I picked the wrong time to take advantage
She's feeling lonely and calls me up to come over
I put on my clothes and go hit the road up just to console her
But this was supposed to be over the moment she took her vows
Don't know what's drawing us closer
But both of us knows it's foul
She got a man that loves her and trust her enough to wife her
And soon as he takes a flight in the morning, I'm there by night
This dude risking his life so his family could live right
And my conscience saying got dammit, it's for your country he fights
And I'm knowing if she was single, I wouldn't be so intrigued with her
Only feed this rush or I wouldn't even have needs for her
Maybe cause I'm a woman, she don't consider it cheating
We both looking for reasons so we can take advantage
Every opportunity's not meant for you to have it
Beware when you grab it, the ones you taking for granted
Cause one day you gon happen to notice you already had it
But it's gone cause you picked the wrong time to take advantage
I picked the wrong time to take advantage
I, I, I picked the wrong time to take advantage
I wasn't thinking bout college. I was more in to dollars
To provide us, you said baby I got us. Go get some knowledge
Even took on two jobs to pick up the slack that I couldn't
You knew it in your heart if the roles reversed, then I would
And I could at least gave a little bit of respect
When the girls was tryna holler, I should've put em' in check
Instead I tried to hide all the numbers that I'd collect
Only for you to find em' and try to cut off my neck
I finally got it together, but you were still paranoid
Blaming me for whatever, your trust in me destroyed
And it was too late for repairing all the damage
I thought you were crazy, but now I understand it
I took advantage
Every opportunity's not meant for you to have it
Beware when you grab it, the ones you taking for granted
Cause one day you gon happen to notice you already had it
But it's gone cause you picked the wrong time to take advantage
I picked the wrong time to take advantage
I, I, I picked the wrong time to take advantage
But in my heart of hearts I know I'm not gon settle down
