Joe Budden - Going Through the Motions

Buying some shots with some vicodin pop,
that have you tell old girl you love her when you just like her a lot.
I’m asking, how you gon’ move forward, how you handle the pain?
If you leave behind more than you ever stand to gain.
Same type of bitches in a different disguise.
If I wanted to constantly hear their yellin, I’d just listen to Plies.
Focusing on my old hoes as a sure way to make this a quick endeavor.
Ain’t got an X that wouldn’t rather be a different letter.
That’s how I end up in the words war, cause
bitches will shit on their name and
continue to blame me and say they deserve more.
But whatever my issue, the fattest ass is like a cure to me.
Comes with a career path that never seems pure to me.

My mind travels back to the day I first met you
I was sitting with my crew, looking kind of cute
Laughing, smiling, but then I saw you.
You were looking lonely so I approached you
You looked at me funny like get out my view
But I didn’t and im kind of glad
You looked at me stunned, so I just smiled back
It didn’t take long before we became friends.
Attached at the hip, we had each other’s back
Esl linkd us. Middle school followed.
Self esteem came into play
But us, it never bothered.
People envied our relationships
But on the low threw jabs,
It had some affect but we overcame all that.
As the seasons passed, some nights got a little colder
We started maturing, getting a little older.
What seemed simple back than
Became a little more complex,
Some days I hated you, others I needed your help.
Relationships started to play a big role in our lives.
We started detaching our self’s from each other,
Having separate sights.
We had a couple fights, cried a couple nights
You was there for me, when I lost my knight.
Back then, I couldn’t get it right.
Sat with me at night, as I cried, you held me tight
It took a little time, but I left that life.
As we reunited. I saw a new light.
College was approaching…
No more mindless behavior, we took grown action.
Now we in college pursuing our degrees.
What I use to doubt about you.
Is becoming more clear.
Sometimes I just wanna reach out,
But im nowhere in your view
Hold on, this can’t be true!
I saw this happening,
Like..I don’t even talk to my friend.
I use to share a lot
Now we greet and say hey.
Sometimes I wanna bark on you
Like look at what you done
How can you go about your business?
Like I’m not a big part of what you have become.
Pardon me, at this point I’m a little mad
It’s like fuck, I’m losing my best friend
And it’s more than that, we like fam.
Our skin color different but our blood runs the same.
Now as I sit and fast forward,
How could we go from teaching each other English,
To becoming foreigners?
I thought I could write this with a clear head
But found myself crying,
I guess this is the end.
