More and More
R. Kelly Lyrics

Mansions, hill and acres
I used to think that having expensive possessions such as mansions and acres was what mattered in life.

Women, drinks and caterers
I used to think that surrounding myself with women, drinks, and caterers was the ultimate way to enjoy life.

I would toast until the break of dawn
I used to party and drink until sunrise without any thought of the consequences.

Swimming pools and strippers
I used to think that having access to swimming pools and strippers was the ultimate sign of luxury and privilege.

Conversation six figures
I used to believe that talking about money and financial success was the only way to have meaningful conversations.

Never crossed my mind to call home.
I never thought about calling home or checking in with my loved ones because I was too caught up in my own selfish desires.

There's a note on the bathroom mirror
I finally realized the depth of my mistakes when I found a note from my partner on the bathroom mirror.

Telling me that you've had enough.
The note was telling me that my partner had finally had enough of my selfish behavior and was leaving me.

It took you leaving me
It was only after my partner left me that I realized how much I had taken them for granted and how much they truly meant to me.

For my blind eyes to see that you mean.
My eyes were finally opened to the true depth of my partner's love and importance in my life.

Far more
My partner meant far more to me than any of the material possessions I had previously valued.

Than this planet to me
My partner was more important to me than anything else in the world, including the planet we live on.

Than the air I breath
My partner was more important to me than the very air I breathe.

From here to overseas
My partner was more important to me than anything, no matter where I traveled in the world.

Girl you're all I need
It became clear to me that my partner was truly all I needed in life to be happy and fulfilled.

Than the mountains and trees
My partner was more important to me than any natural beauty in the world.

You mean more than the birds and the bees
My partner was more important to me than any innate aspect of nature, such as the birds and the bees.

Honey take it from me
I wanted to make it clear to my partner that they were the most important thing in my life.

Hanging out with friends
I used to prioritize hanging out with my friends over spending time with my partner.

Never calling to check in
I never thought to call or check in on my partner to see how they were doing.

Neglecting you in every way
I neglected my partner in every way possible, failing to appreciate them or give them the love and attention they deserved.

Taking the home front for granted
I took my partner and our life together for granted, assuming that everything would always stay the same without any effort on my part.

What was straight, is now slanted
My once steady and stable relationship had become strained and unsteady due to my actions.

And I don't know what to do about this letter.
I was lost and unsure of how to proceed when I found the note from my partner indicating that they were leaving me.

Ever since you've been gone
Since my partner left me, I've had time to reflect on what I've lost and how much they truly meant to me.

I realize girl just what it is I had at home
I now understand what I lost when my partner left me and how much they added to my life.

Oh Baby, you mean far more
My partner means more to me than anything else in the world.

Nothing can compare to your love for me.
The love that my partner showed me was unlike anything else in the world and nothing else can compare to it.

To your love for me
I am referring to the deep and profound love that my partner had for me.
