Lyrics
I Won't Live Like That -
Prelude Rap:
You know, I had to sit down with my girl last night and talk to her. You see, when we first got together everything was so nice. I mean, we had our ups and downs but together, we always worked em out. But lately things just haven't been the same. We been arguing, fussing and fighting, and calling each other names. So I told her last night... it's all got to stop right here..., right now. And this is what I said.
Verse #1
I remember when we first met :: and I was soooo glad... yes I was :: now 12 weeks later, all this fussing and fighting girl.., now I'm feeling soooo sad... weelllllll....

Verse #2
I remember the first time we made love :: it was so right :: cause you held me tight, all night :: but in morning you woke up :: and wanted to start a fight :: you told me ain't nothing I do... ever... gonna turn out right.. well I got to tell you girl it's all gotta stop, right here... right now, you know why :: I can't live like that... :: ah girl... I won't live like that.
Verse #3
Now you know I love you :: and that's why I stayed :: but I'm gonna get my hat, hit the door... and walk away :: I can't take no more :: I'm gonna hit the door :: and I can tell you this :: you won't see me no more :: well....

Music Interlude: Arguing fussing and fightin all day long :: girl won't you tell me please :: what's wrong... tell me... what's wrong

Last night in the bed... you turned your back :: so I got up and left... I didn't go for that :: tears down my face... but I didn't look back :: done made up my mind girl.... I was through with that :: But dude something told me, I should go back :: you see two wrongs ya'll... dont make... it don't make a right :: so you don't turn your back :: try one more time, try try try... oh lord I'm gonna try to win her back... woh lord I want to win her back... you see I love that girl... yea, and that's why I stayed :: but all this arguin fussing and figtin ya'll... can't take no more, oh lord knows... ya'll... uh uh...
