Get Involved
Craig David feat. JP Cooper Lyrics

I don't wanna be a part of this same struggle no longer
I don't want to continue being part of the same difficulties and challenges anymore.

Baby comes knocking on my door, I hide behind the sofa
When someone I don't want to deal with shows up at my door, I avoid them by hiding.

I remember ten years younger I didn't have a problem
When I was ten years younger, I didn't face any problems like I do now.

I wish I could get her again
I want to have another chance with her.

I wish that we could've stayed friends
I wish that we could have maintained a friendship instead of whatever happened between us.

Why do you wanna stay friends?
Why would you want to be my friend?

I really don't mean no offense, oh no
I don't want to be rude, but I don't understand why you would want to stay friends.

She'd leave you with you other chance if you did pick her up in your pants, oh no
If you sleep with her, she won't stick around for more than one night, and that's not good.

Would she hold you down, I think no, sir
Would she stay by your side in tough times? I doubt it.

A gold digger, I already told ya
She's a woman who's interested only in your money or assets.

Different kinds, they're just part of a culture
Gold diggers are common and a product of the existing social culture.

So why you keep getting involved her?
Why are you still dealing with her?

Lately it seems wherever I go, the trouble will follow
I feel like I can't escape problems no matter where I go.

Now every night I'm locking my doors and closing my windows
Now I'm taking precautions every night to ensure my safety.

I ain't like your other friends, I ain't sittin' on a fence (oh no)
I'm not like your other friends who are indecisive and don't take a stand.

Too blind to see what she doing
You can't see the negative things she's doing.

But I can see through her pretence, oh no
I can see through her fake behavior and know she's not genuine.

So brother come home, don't be foolish
Come home and don't do anything stupid.

I'm your boy, I not gonna let you do this
I'm your friend and I don't want you to make a mistake.

I know you understand what the truth is
I know you know what's really going on here.

Just brush this chick off, let her hand in a notice
Just ignore her and let her know it's over.

Maybe he was right, maybe I was wrong
He might have been correct, and I might have been incorrect in my thinking.

Maybe I've been far too close to see what's going on
Maybe I couldn't see what was happening because I was too emotionally involved.

That don't change the situation
Regardless, the situation stays the same.

You don't need no education
You don't need to be educated to realize what's going on.

Sittin' there procrastinatin'
You're just sitting there and delaying making a decision.

I be off, I'll see you later
I'm leaving now, I'll see you later.

Why'd you get involved?
Why did you get yourself involved in this situation?

Getting involved
You decided to put yourself in the middle of this mess.

Why I gotta get involved?
Why do I always have to be a part of this situation?

Keep getting involved
You keep involving yourself in these types of situations.

Getting involved with those games
You're involving yourself in meaningless situations and games.
