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 (yeah, yeah) Too late (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 - 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 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, - 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 - get repaid? Look at how I dress, - 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 f- step And I won't be comin' back, so don't hold your f- breath You know what you've done, no need to go in-depth I told you you'd be sorry if I f- 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 (yeah, yeah) Caught in a chase, 25 to life 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 (too late), 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 - 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 - 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 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 You, hip hop, I'm leavin' you, my life sentence is served 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
