The end all and my be all
Yes, I believed that lie

You gonna take away
Nawl, ain't no way!
'Cause if I thought you were
The end all and my be all
I ain't gonna even mention his name

You can't control my mind
To break down my pride
And I wouldn't be on my own
I would've never left you alone
And I never, never, would've grown
My joy, my peace, my strength

'Cause I done moved on with my life
I'm telling you
And I wouldn't be on my own
And I never would've wrote this song
Of all the pain you gave me

I'm never gonna survive
I would've never left you alone
That said I couldn't do nothing without him, um
But sorry, no way no how
Ain't no way
I never would've loved again

The hate you showed to me
Nawl, ain't no way!
Who are you to tell me

Were the end all and my be all
And I wouldn't be on my own
And my spirit, y'all
Taught me how to love myself

That I can't go on without
Nawl, nawl, nawl
And I never would've found faith
It's funny how you tried
I would've never left you alone
'Cause if I thought you were

And why you telling me
It doesn't it even matter now
Thank you for the times
Ain't no way
'Cause if I thought you
Nawl, nawl, nawl
Um, but once upon a time
I'm telling you
