Surprise
Shari Marie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can do without you
But I'm tryin on not to
But all the things we been through
It's always on my mind
Throwing out my pride
It's like I'm livin a new low
Here was i as your your prize
But you rather play house with another hoe
Yea i ride for you ride for you why
Why you crucify me baby why would you why would you why
Building bricks out of sand
Ohhh, i bet you she won't be loyal
Ohhh no, you planting seeds you'll rot in soil
You belong to me
Put it in on me and living with the lie
I found out the truth and now you so surprised guilt
Now you so surprised guilt
Actin so surprised guilt
Yous a phony i think the grass is greener on the other side guilt

Hold up
Spitting venom from your mouth
Telling shorty yea bout how
Our sleeping arrangements won't compare to what y'all bout to do on south beach
And how you bout to turn it out see
Dummy you dead to me
You got selective memory
You know, know what i did for you
Up up graded
Boy not the flaws in me now
But Tell her how i held you down
Gave you that real shit
Go tell yo mama how you killed it
Thought We had a deal
No i don't care what little bitch you wanna play with

You belong to me
Put it in on me and living with the lie
I found out the truth and now you so surprised guilt
Now you so surprised guilt
Actin so surprised guilt
Yous a phony i think the grass is greener on the other side guilt

Must be high
You're flying you're flying you're flying you're flying
For goodness sake
Tell me i did say what is a break
Oh no i know the universe don't make mistakes

You belong to me
Put it in on me and living with the lie
I found out the truth and now you so surprised guilt
Now you so surprised guilt
Actin so surprised guilt
Yous a phony i think the grass is greener on the other side guilt
You belong to me
Put it in on me and living with the lie
I found out the truth and now you so surprised guilt
Now you so surprised guilt
Actin so surprised guilt
Yous a phony i think the grass is greener on the other side guilt
Think the grass is greener on the other side guilt
Think the grass is greener on the other side guilt
Turf is greener on the other side




No purpose greener on the other side
It's fucked up when you just another fly side killed
