Leaving
Ja Rule (ft Ashanti) Lyrics

If you were me what would you do always a lie,
Imagine being me, surrounded by lies instead of the truth.

And never the truth now as for me I'm moving on
I refuse to continue accepting your dishonesty and I'm walking away.

You'll always be my baby.
Despite everything that's happened, I'll always care about you.

Baby I just got to let you go for now,
I need to let you go and move on with my life.

Thought I could take it for a while maybe.
I thought I could handle our situation, but I can't.

You'll make it back around baby I just got to live my life.
Maybe we'll reconnect in the future, but for now I need to focus on myself.

And now can't see me changing for a while hope I could make it back around.
I don't see myself changing anytime soon, but I hope we can repair our relationship eventually.

Anything that I want I can get it boy.
I have the power to get whatever I desire, even without you.

You know you turn me on and on that's why I switch my
I used to be drawn to you and your attention.

Frame of mind of being there when you call always on time.
I used to prioritize your needs, always being available when you needed me.

I'm looking to spread my wings and party,
Now, I want to explore my independence and enjoy my freedom.

From everything and for everybody,
I want to experience everything - for myself, not just for you.

Need my space my time alone its like our hearts don't match no more,
I need to be alone to figure out what I really want, because it seems that we're no longer compatible.

Still everything that you want you could get it boy.
You have the power to get what you want as well, without me.

You know I still got love for
Despite everything that's happened, I still care about you.

You in court I plea the fifth my baby.
If I were asked to testify against you, I wouldn't say anything.

When you was cheating you was probably thinking I won't sense a thing
When you were being unfaithful, you probably assumed I wouldn't find out.

But love got funny way of catching up
Love has a way of making things come to light.

To lies and your lies can't look me straight in the eyes I'm not surprised that you
Your deceitful behavior is evident in the way you can't even make eye contact with me.

Would hurt me baby but why me baby just let me breathe
I'm hurt by your actions, but I need space to heal and move on.

And I'll fly free babe.
I'll finally feel free from the burden of our relationship.

Why in the world would you wanna leave me girl is there
I don't understand why you would want to end our relationship - is there a reason?

Something I did that you feel is better then whats here at home
Did I do something wrong, or is there something that you feel is better out there for you?

And I know a bitch could do bad on her own you're not alone
I know that you're capable of handling yourself without me.

The way you hurt me baby shit why me baby
I'm hurting because of the way you've treated me, and I don't understand why.

I be in pain a little but I know that love is real and as
I'm hurting, but I know that love is a real thing that can heal even the deepest wounds.

Long as it lets you go you feel the need to come back to me baby
As long as we both get the space we need, we might find our way back to each other in the future.

Who else would hold you and sex
Who else would give you what I could - emotional support and physical pleasure?

You crazy R.U.L.E come on back holla at me baby.
You're crazy if you think you could find a better situation than what we had - come back to me, I'm here for you.
