Story Behind The Song
This song came about when I was at my friends house jamming out to some beats, when my friend heard a beat in particular and through out an idea out of what I should write about. He said I should write about a sexual relationship gone bad. Now, keep in mind i'm usually very to myself when I write and like to tell my own stories but I really loved the idea and wanted to give it a try. So I sat back for a minute, put myself in the scenario and my pen pretty much did the rest. I went to the studio that night to lay it down and my friend was there that sings and was humming a melody to it and I remember saying "Yoooo thats it." I went in and did the verses, got him on the hook and thats pretty much how the song came about.
Song Description
This song is about having an affair with someone that you think you know and care about but then realizing its just lust. Having a guilty conscience about the situation, you realize this isn't what you want and that you two should call it off before things go any further.

Lyrics
Verse:
Baby girl I know you so well, but I feel like I don't know us.
You got me trapped in ya cell, but this ain't love its just lust.
I don't even know what you in to, unless its you that I'm into.
Never cared enough to ask, I mean lord knows what you been through.
No need to exchange stories, lets stick to the same story.
Because as soon as we done f**king, Imma hit up my main shorty.
Because at least she knows my secrets and I can trust her to keep it.
Showing emotions not a weakness, but its how you made me see it.
Can't believe it, that imma say this but i'm leaving.
Don't want this stranger in my bed while i'm sleeping.
Time to clear my conscience, way to sick of creeping.
All we had is gone (gone, gone) with the wind like leaves is. (And I'm)
Chorus:
x4 I'm leaving you alone
This gone on way too long, so sick of living wrong.
Didn't know what else to say, so I left you with this song. Uh.
And I can't tell I lie, I can't even lie.
Don't even know the person staring in my eyes.
Bridge:
x4 La dada
