The Way You Love (feat. Felicia Temple)

[00:18.88] Turn me up in the headphone something
[00:20.15] (New Joe Budden)
[00:20.76] Look
[00:21.36] First off let me shout out the fam, y'all so gracious
[00:22.35] Been chilling in the room for growth, it's so spacious
[00:25.56] Getting to the money, counting these old faces
[00:29.12] Like I found the smoking gun in cold cases (nah)
[00:32.29] Them dark thoughts never got to 'em still
[00:34.23] I'm like the legendary Robin Will
[00:36.25] Even though I understand
[00:37.75] I never dealt with the pain like that
[00:38.98] A knot from that same rope
[00:40.73] But I don't hang like that
[00:42.22] We had a couple break-ups
[00:43.64] Gotta respect Cuzz and I'll hit the reset button
[00:45.80] You try to reset Budden, it's real
[00:47.58] My accomplishments
[00:49.07] Already show 'em how I deal with the consequence
[00:51.22] And you can ask Consequence
[00:53.33] She reached out via text like "What up with the guy?"
[00:55.82] Which is weird, it's been a year
[00:57.81] Since we fraternized
[00:58.39] Still I made my way back in her life
[01:00.61] Only to prove to myself I wouldn't fuck up twice
[01:03.13] We reminiscing, thinking hella back
[01:05.17] You had to watch me with her but to hell with that
[01:07.55] Cause I think that me carrying that thought
[01:10.22] Kind of washed me with her
[01:11.02] And even that's cool cause me and you is not me and her
[01:13.08] I took a little hiatus, hope you could see the change
[01:15.19] I was too high to say this, how could I explain?
[01:16.81] Though my mouth was quiet
[01:19.03] My mind was like a Ferguson riot
[01:20.87] Why it only get worse when I'm in private
[01:22.86] Were we victims to the game
[01:25.19] Trying to do it over
[01:26.72] Here's the gift for an exchange
[01:28.58] It's timeout for the public
[01:30.18] These niggas won't know a thing
[01:33.26] It's not a game
[01:34.23] Like a picture in a frame for now
[01:35.63] Drunk models, couple Swishers and a stack here
[01:38.04] Everytime I walk away, you need me
[01:42.07] But your words don't mean a thing when you're not here
[01:47.25] Tell me is this the way
[01:49.99] The way that you love me
[01:52.38] Tell me is this the way
[01:54.93] The way that you care
[01:56.26] She said she wanna set boundaries
[01:58.70] Can't continue to have you surrounding me
[02:01.87] Cause that'll lead to you on this couch pounding me
[02:04.08] That'll bring them feelings back
[02:05.51] That's just out of bounds to me
[02:07.17] It's been years, last bitch ain't come around to me
[02:09.21] Send my tone of voice down
[02:10.85] Like you speaking down to me
[02:12.44] Said I said some things to begrudge you
[02:14.35] But I can't ask to not be judged then judge you
[02:17.07] She said; all this time I've been screaming "Fuck You"
[02:19.57] When she implies I can't move on I'm stuck too
[02:22.44] Blood flowing, there's an adrenaline rush too
[02:24.98] Every time I'm tryna leave
[02:26.57] It's when you're in a rush too
[02:27.88] She said; looking back I can see how you was gaming me
[02:30.53] Which is fine, I can see how you could feel there
[02:33.43] Which means I just gotta ask you one question though
[02:35.78] If it was game tell me why them feelings still there?
[02:38.76] I know the answer to that: you still fallin'
[02:41.02] You ain't never felt so strong, it feels foreign
[02:43.77] Probably got me saved in her phone as Phil Collins
[02:46.12] Hear it in the air of the night it's still callin'
[02:48.96] Every time you see me a couple of bills on him
[02:51.40] Got rich then did it again we still ballin'
[02:54.17] You ain't gotta respond to that
[02:55.83] If you did it would look like it's a con to that
[02:58.36] I'm so far beyond of that
[02:59.96] Chillin' with a couple of hoes that like hoes
[03:02.11] That like niggas that don't act like hoes
[03:03.79] I don't say that cause I'm vain
[03:05.53] Or some strangers can know I'm the man
[03:06.42] We not fucking
[03:07.97] Sometimes it's better knowing you can't
[03:09.82] She come running back
[03:10.73] Every time she throw in the can
[03:12.34] Just to holla when she feel like not a soul understand
[03:15.03] Baby, I already proved that I ride out
[03:17.99] You can't bear to be hurt again so you hide out
[03:20.89] You ain't gotta say that, I know you inside out
[03:23.19] We communicate so well when all the pride's out
[03:25.86] You gotta give it one more go, we ain't tried out
[03:28.26] Nah that love wouldn't a been real if it died out
[03:30.83] Joey
[03:33.04] Everytime I walk away, you need me
[03:38.34] But your words don't mean a thing when you're not here
[03:43.32] Tell me is this the way
[03:45.67] The way that you love me
[03:48.18] Tell me is this the way
[03:50.90] The way that you care
[03:53.44]
