WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL

I was working late nights,

Working my fingers to the bone,

Trying to build a home,

Paying all the bills like a "good man

Was supposed to do"

Taking care of you and the kids

"Was my number one priority"

Missing out on my babies' milestones,

I thought every overtime hour

Was another "brick in our wall"

Never knowing while I was building it up,

You were tearing it down.

I was looking at forever,

You were looking for a way out.

I was giving you my everything,

You were giving me your doubts.

I would've fought for us,

I would've stood through it all,

But you can't save a future

When one heart don't "want it at all"

We could've had it all,

We could've had the house, the car, the kids, the dog,

The keys to it all.

We could've had it all,

But now we have nothing at all.

When I was stacking,you was makckin,

When I was loving you,

You was loving "someone else"

Mmm-mmm… ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh…

No, no, no, no…

We could've had it all…

All, all, all, all…

You had me believing

Every promise that you made,

I thought we were a team,

Two hearts with the same dream.

Now I'm staring at the pictures on the wall,

Wondering, where did we go wrong?

When I wanted time with you,

You were out,

Seeking attention from"other guys"

Running around town,

Telling lies,

Acting like I was crazy,

Acting like I was the one who did you wrong.

I should've walked away,

But my love for you was to strong.

But now I can finally breathe,

Now I'm finally at peace.

Now I'm finally happy,

And I'm becoming who I'm meant to be.

I took my losses as a blessing,

Took the pain as a lesson.

Then I realize,

There ain't no "I" in team

I was the only one

Still trying to keep love alive.

We could've had it all,

We could've had the house, the car, the kids, the dog,

The keys to it all.

We could've had it all,

But now we have nothing at all.

When I was stacking, "you was makckin"

When I was loving you,

You was loving someone else. Mmm-mmm… ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh…

No, no, no, no…

We could've had it all…

All, all, all, all…

The house…

The car…

The keys…

The dog…

The kids…

The life…

We could of had it all.

I finally understand

Why this had to end.

Sometimes losing someone

Is how your heart get's set free.

I cried. I healed. I fell apart.

And everything you took from me

I found it inside my self.

We could've had it all,

We could've had the house, the car, the kids, the dog,

The keys to it all.

We could've had it all,

But now we have nothing at all.

When I was stacking, "you was makckin"

When I was loving you,

You was loving someone else.

Mmm-mmm… ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh…

No, no, no, no…

We could've had it all…

All, all, all, all…

But I gave you my heart,

And you fed me lies.

I gave you my love,

You gave me alibis.

look at me now…

I'm standing on my own.

I found my peace,

Yeah.. i'm better on my own
