Song Description

They were best friends, they did some hustling, one went to jail, best friend promised he'd look after his friends woman until he did his time. Looked a little closer than he should have,

Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, we were good friends
Innocent vibes, oh, how it began


It was innocent at first, just a simple touch, you know
Needed some encouragement, but I was here to let it flow
You were hurt, trust was scarce, so I stayed tight with your heart
But soon I felt the chemistry, baby, it tore me apart


As I got to know you, it grew a little too close
Had your back like a shield, but now it's not just a boast
I only meant to smooth things over, just a soft embrace
How did I get caught up in this tangled chase?


A late-night rendezvous, just a tête-à-tête between me and you
Goodbye hugs, you kissed my cheek, how could I be so damn weak?
Reality creeps like regret, don't you see?
In the heat of the moment, caught up in you and me

[Chorus]
I wasn't attracted to you, now look what you made me do
Hate this situation I'm in, I just betrayed my best friend
Homies since we were kids, if you only knew the things we did
Hung out at malls and basketball, we did some hustling - he took the fall

[Verse 2]
When he went away to jail, I promised to carry the weight
Told him I'd make sure you were well, making sure you wouldn't wait
I assured him, don't you worry, but now I'm losing sight
Of this bond we used to share, I'm stuck between wrong and right


Are you sure no one knows? I didn't tell a doggone soul
Ninety more days till he comes home, I just can't leave you alone
But here we are, tangled up in this delicate thread,
And with every touch, I risk everything we said

[Chorus]
I wasn't attracted to you, now look what you made me do
Hate this situation I'm in, I just betrayed my best friend
Homies since we were kids, if you only knew the things we did
Hung out at malls and basketball, we did some hustling - he took the fall

[Outro]
Conflicted love, can't leave this alone, yes I feel torn, where do we go?
Innocence lost, a heart on the line, this choice was mine - lost in our time
