Good Intentions
[Intro: Jonny Craig]
I had good intentions, you know that I did
But information came up missing
Didn’t think you’d turn around and walk out like that
[Verse 1: Kyle Lucas; Jonny Craig]
From the start, I had good intentions
Wrote my life, folks found it interesting
Made more songs, put them on the internet
Caught a scent of this honest intellect
Shit, I never thought I would get this far
And I work too god damn hard
Just to listen to critics bitch and just rip it apart
See, the mess that you are, huh
Fuck it, I just overlooked it
That was my fault, I thought I know this woman
We got all our faults and I got no sermon
I would ever judge, try to pass no verdict
And digging up facts from the past on a person
To throw it back, attack, making matters worse
Would of noticed a pattern first
Tried to cut deep, I'm mad that it worked
See, I bent over backwards
Then I fell hard, hardly a trend of rap words
I was just obsessed to catch her
And that messed up everything
I invested everything
Even went out and bought a God damn wedding ring
Threw in the towel on settling down
Scribbled out vowels on a whole set of vows (I had good intent-)
See, maybe if i went and gone and listened a little bit
I would of caught wind of it or even a hint of it
But no ever wins just by wishing go get it
Got me at my wit's end 'cause you win at acting innocent
I wish I counteracted all that negative energy
And I tried to be a gentlemen, I know that I’m better than
But I used to love her, no Common Sense
Now she the cause of this constant stress
[Hook: Jonny Craig]
I had good intentions, you know that I did
But information came up missing
Didn’t think you’d turn around and walk out like that
I had good intentions, you know that I did
But damn, you failed to mention
I didn’t really mean for it to play out like that
[Verse 2: Kyle Lucas; Jonny Craig]
Ya, I stayed longer than I should've
Trying like crazy to make it work
Or, shit, was I crazy thinking I could've?
I don’t really know all the coulds and the couldn’ts
I don’t really know all good that it woulda
Done; if I did, what you did how put it?
Played you before you played me
Brought me right down to your level
What, you trying to change me? (I had good intent-)
Well, shame on me trying to think it would work
It sinks and it hurts
We accept the love that we think we deserve
I guess I think worse
'Cause you were my only outlet and I thought we’d outlive
Everybody else, but you put me on a shelf
And changed everything quicker than you do an outfit
I know now you won't never come around
Beyond run down sick of dealing with your runaround
Fuck all ya new dudes, how ya’ll run around
Hear ‘em run, they mouth, well, fuck ‘em I'll run them out
It’s all one-sided now, beside myself I decided how
To get on up, I’m done hiding out
My escape route now's what I’m writing about
So dear music, I gave my whole heart to you
And you abused it, broke it and ripped it out
I guess now I’m heartless, too
Made me believe I was made this scene
Sewn together like a seamstress
Finding someone who will tell you they love you is easy
It’s hard finding someone who means it
[Hook: Jonny Craig]
I had good intentions, you know that I did
But information came up missing
Didn’t think you’d turn around and walk out like that
I had good intentions, you know that I did
But damn, you failed to mention
I didn’t really mean for it to play out like that
