0:02Corner Boys
0:07I wasn't ready
0:12I wasn't ready
0:18I wasn't ready
0:21I wasn't ready
0:24When you talked about our future
0:26You would nod your head and smile
0:29But I didn't understand it I was living in denial
0:34I couldn't see the picture didn't wanna see it clearer
0:37'Cause I was so young
0:39And now that I can't get ya wanted to be wit' ya
0:43What have I become
0:45If this is a game then I've been playing 'cause
0:50I never gave you my all when I had your trust
0:55But I put this on everything that I love
0:57One more chance and we can make up
1:01I wish it could have worked back then
1:04But the truth is I wasn't ready
1:07Mamma told me 'bout excuses
1:09She'd say "They're no use to say"
1:11What you would have done but didn't
1:14I had to learn the hard way
1:16Now that it's over I wanted to just hold you
1:20But I know I can't
1:21I'm tryna be a soldier I wanna do it over
1:25Give me one more chance I wasn't ready
1:28If this is a game then I've been playing 'cause
1:32I never gave you my all when I had your trust
1:38But I put this on everything that I love
1:41One more chance and we can make up
1:44I wish it could have worked back then
1:47But the truth is I wasn't ready
1:49Can I get a redo baby
1:52'Cause you know I need you baby
1:54And now I'm ready for your love your love
2:00I just wanna see you baby
2:02Just wanna smell and breathe you baby
2:05'Cause I hate what we've become
2:08I wasn't ready for love
2:10I waited I contemplated and then I did it
2:12It was room for relationship but pretty had to hit it
2:15We like hand and glove head to a yankee fitted
2:17Game is obsolete it's all how you spit it
2:20Better yet listen 'cause karma's a true avenger
2:23Sort of like a Ninja or a king in all his splendor
2:25Remember love can be as cold as December
2:28Unless it's in its truest form I could never injure
2:31Your heart break you or make you see my vision
2:34'Cause I know eventually you'll see my vision
2:35By the way I'm livin' and it's a given
2:37I'm giving you my heart I'm giving you my soul
2:40I'm giving you my gold
2:41I'm sorry for the dirt that I did
2:43Sneaking broads in and out the crib
2:45The double life that I lived
2:46They say a fool sells dreams
2:48But a man makes dreams come true
2:49Mami I changed all for the love of you
2:52I wasn't ready back then though
2:56If this is a game then I've been playing 'cause
2:59I never gave you my all when I had your trust
3:01But I put this on everything that I love
3:04One more chance and we can make up
3:08I wish it could have worked back then
3:11But the truth is I wasn't ready
3:14If this is a game then I've been playing 'cause
3:17I never gave you my all when I had your trust
3:23But I put this on everything that I love
3:26One more chance and we can make up
3:29I wish it could have worked back then
3:32But the truth is I wasn't ready
3:38I wasn't ready
