Lyrics:

Oh yes

Uh huh, yeah
I wanna be the reason you smile after you wipe your tears
The reason you have the courage to confront your fears
The reason there's two carrots in each of your ears
I spurge with the paper ma, I don't care
How ya like the pumps, boots, jeeps, and coops
Minks or leathers, 50 fall off never
What's mine is yours and what's yours is mine
So when I shine, you shine
Come on and find the Champaign, we can toast to life
Crap table in Vegas you can toss the dice
Don't let your friends get you confused, sayin' 50 bad news
I need ya in my life girl you're too much to lose

It's funny 'cause, for a while
I walked around with a smile
But deep inside, I could hear
Voices telling me this ain't right
Don't you know, it's not for you
I always knew what I had to do
But it's hard to get away
'Cause I love you
I just tried to stay

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I did)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh yeah)
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright (gonna be alright)
I said I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I did)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh yeah)
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Friends of mine say to me
Say you got control over me
You're not alone, I played my part
I saw the way you were from the start
Could I expect so much from you
You had a girl when I first met you
Did the best that you could do
Now I realize I can't change you

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (ooh)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright (be alright)
I said I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I did)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh yeah)
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Said I wouldn't walk away
Some days I want to stay (days I want to stay)
But leaving you is what I need to do (need to do)
To be OK (I need to be OK)
I never thought it would be true (would be true)
Me living without you (living without you)

Yeah, uh huh, yeah
Now when I tell ya what my wishes are you don't respect it
When I smile at ya, you don't smile back to reconnect it
You ain't been gone long, but I already miss you
I need you next to me so I can hug you and kiss you
All the talkin' on the phone, all the time we share
How could you fix your mouth to say 'I don't care'
I had plans for us to buy ice together
Engagement rings, and things and share life together
Now when your friends tell ya 50 called you're like whatever
Do you think we were wrong for each other from the start
Or was it my actions that made us fall apart
Just want you to know you'll always have a place in my heart

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I did)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (wasn't with)
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it (to my eyes)
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright (be alright)
I said I couldn't do it but I did it (but I did)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (wasn't with)
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Oh no
Be alright, yes
Oh no
Says I'm gonna be alright

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright
I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright
