The Pretender

We made our work at the shoe store I'm at the the mall, near the food court I know I probably shouldn't shoot for it But her accent had me feeling like it's do or Live with regret wondering "What if?" So I picked her up, copped a quarter, got some blunts lit Wasn't tryna rush it, we was just chill Listen to my music while cruising through ATL Under the late night spell, anything could happen And when it did it was lights, camera, action Started out laughing but she ended up crying In between the yelling and the cheating and the lying I told her that "I'm trying but I'm on my college shit" When I get back we gone talk about this blonde chick Home please don't leave, I need more time I told her "Even though I'm gone don't acknowledge it" We can just pretend, yeah That I ain't even gone Baby girl, let's pretend Yeah, so let's pretend That I ain't even gone Baby girl, let's pretend Yeah Yeah, go 'head and rock that little ponytail She said she won't give me head but she'll show me tail You know me well, not well enough But you've always been a rider so you get it rough And baby this ain't apple cider in my cup Sometimes I toy with her emotions just to wind her up My light is up, the sun is down Too many questions so I'm giving her the runaround Like I don't know when I'm gonna see you She believe's my lies, I'm just hoping she don't see through My life is like a movie, I'm still getting through the previews All she want is time but my time is a rare That's a Jew so my presence is a gem But let me see those ruby red lips getting in She love's the smell of Gucci on my neck Let's pretend this life ain't mine and this night won't end Let's pretend, yeah, yeah And let's pretend That I ain't even gone Baby girl, let's pretend Yeah, we can still pretend Yeah, they say "It's good when you get it" and I got it Little Latino rolling around, blowing chronic I know her name but I won't say it, she's psychotic She would probably try and stick her hands in my pockets And I would probably try and stick her man in a coffin I know that we planned to find love but we lost it Used to hit the park after dark, I would talk shit You would giggle as I scribbled all over your conscience Rolling paper places, come and lay down in my cockpit Says she's never done it, but she says she want's it I tell her "You're too good for a first time novice" She tells me that "It's love, that's her word, it's her promise" I tell her "No way chica, chica just be honest" She tells me that I'm lying I say "You're being modest" But fuck it anyway because it's over, I should stop this Yeah it's over, I should stop this But we can still pretend, yeah That we ain't even gone Baby girl, let's pretend Yeah, so let's pretend Yeah, and let's pretend Let's pretend
