[Chorus]
Flames to dust, lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Flames to dust, lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
[Verse 1]
So there are no misconceptions let's clear it up
I'mma spit it from my heart, I'm tired of tearing up
Why won't you just admit, I was ready to commit
You was on your material shit like my ring wasn't good enough
I put myself at a disadvantage, emotional manners
Could barely manage to wake in the morning, was so sad
Drowning myself in alcohol, and blaming it all on myself
And my financial status wasn't even that low
You promised you would love me even if I went broke
You promised to love my previous children, what a joke
We knew the end result when your mom called me a nigga
I never considered the woman that I'd take a bullet for would be the same one behind the trigger
With like a great conversation stopped in mid-sentence
She said she'd changed her mind, her new one hasn't made a difference
To light your cigarettes I would've set myself on fire
Loving you more than I did myself but felt I was on trial
You did what was best for my child no problem so I moved in
You'll always be found guilty in the court of a one side chick
Was one of them relationships where nobody smiles
But it was cheaper to keep her like a lease when you over the miles
Someday you'll wake up knowing that you lost a precious diamond
While you were out collecting regular stones, so trifling
Go 'head and live in Gomorrah, you ain't taking my daughter
Wanna walk out of my life? I'll hold the door open for ya
Sleep in scarlet
Flames to dust, lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
Flames to dust, lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?
