Honesty

If you gone tell it you might as well tell it all
I'm tired of you playin the victim you ain't a victim at all
People around you buy your lies like buy one get one free
You only ate in return what you regularly served me
Said I came back cuz I begged you yet you proposed to me
We're gonna be honest
At the end of the day I just wanted your honesty
But nah fuck it imma tell it
They say there's three sides to every story yours mine and the truth
So heres mine

How about we keep it real for a bit how about you met me broke
I found a gig when you got pregnant and shit
I ain't have no motivation i had just did a bid
I was living with baby moms and taking care of the kids
Had your man then hit me up front like I'm taking some pics
I never entertained it til that spot was vacant
Then of course we started dating few months later we had baby
You started growing impatient til the day I finally stayed with you
Readily gave it up five months later was replaced by some nigga
That you was dating way before you put me out
If I lost my spot at the shelter slept on your couch
I guess I should've been grateful cuz that lasted a little while
Father's Day we fucked you told leave my things in your house
Me assuming we making up but nah that other nigga's there when I'm out
So you apologized and that was that
Said you ain't know how to be loved y'all never fucked
And though I hurt was glad to have you back that's honesty

I don't want to hate you but I gotta
Wish I could've been just what you wanted
Should've cut it off before we started
I'm giving you honesty
That's all that you got from me
Hoo... honesty
Hoo... honesty
Hoo... honesty
I'm giving you honesty
That's all that you got from me

After marriage the beautiful ceremony
I found myself back to begging you daily for us to share a moment
But of course when I get home from work I'm lonely
And granted I had a meal but time with you is what I really wanted
Finally I got some money im hoping for the time alone
Movie nights bore you now and you starting to hide your phone
Then holidays roll around and you need a reason to beef
So you bait me with accusations excuses for you to cheat
You put me out for a nigga tell your family it's me
I was staying in homeless shelters and hustling to just to eat
Til Nikki opened her door and we wasn't supposed to speak
You talked about me to the folks same way you talk about to me
Your loyalty's to yourself so you was smarter to leave
If I was smart I would've left when you took my daughter from me
Still I loved you more than even me
You made it clear what really mattered
So I'm sure I'll find the blessing in you leaving Peace

I don't want to hate you but I gotta
Wish I could've been just what you wanted
Should've cut it off before we started
I'm giving you honesty
That's all that you got from me
Hoo... honesty
Hoo... honesty
Hoo... honesty
I'm giving you honesty
That's all that you got from me
