Shawn Chrystopher - The Reason [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Yeah
Just let it run the whole way
I ain't even gonna write it down
I know the story
You do too

Uh, I tried to make you smile
I tried to make you laugh
Who would ever thought
That you would be my past
I thought you was my future
I thought it was the end
But like a fairy tale, it was all pretend
I loved you like I'm supposed to
I tried my best to show you
How I can fly high and fight the haters off like Goku
You said you didn't know dude
I dropped it, I'm mad cool
Until he got on Facebook
Describing all your tattoos
Now I'm mad at that dude
When really it was you
Before I met you, you had a dude up at my school
You told me that the reason that you didn't say the truth
Is because you didn't want me to think ?? was you
Or that you was a ho
That's cool, I understand
I slipped up in my past
That don't mean I'm not your man
Let's fall into amnesia
And worry about us
Relationships ain't shit
If they never based on trust
My little sister's six
And she started to adore you
Every night calling on my cell asking for you
I knew I found the one
Though my mama wasn't sure
I ain't even care
I thought our love was pure
Until that day came
And I never would believe that you would leave
Because your ex got drafted in the League
See life is so funny
I ain't make enough money
He pulled up in that range
And changed shit from sunny
Into a nightmare, right here
And it's probably not fair
How you left me in the rain in Nike Airs
I don't mean to be bitter
But I feel like he was a quitter
See life wasn't perfect
But I was steady trying
When your ass would sleep, see I was steady crying
Praying to my grandma, asking her to save me
I knew that you would leave
If they ain't steady pay me
I hit rock bottom, and you tried to help me out
I told you one day, that we gon' get up off this couch
You smiled up in my face
Your eyes ain't believe
I fell into addiction, alcohol and weed
You telling all your friends
That Shawn ain't shit
You even told my best friends that Shawn ain't shit
Shawn ain't say shit, I kept my mouth closed
You went behind my back
Befriended all my foes
I'm having nightmares
Cause I really did love you
I even swore to God
That I would place no one above you
But now, I can't watch ESPN
Without me thinking about him digging out your estrogen
Your ex is then saying he gon' show me
All this tough talk
And he don't even know me
I would never fight for a girl
Who lays with a man
With a motive, or a scheme, or a plan
So bye bye, I wish you the best
I would say success but success found me
And you always on Twitter
Trying to trend a topic about me
I just let it go
Get it from 'round me
I got a new girl, funny thing-she found me
And when my credit card blacker than Richard Roundtree
All I ask is you don't try and lost and found me
See you chose your life
I hope that it works out in the end
Maybe then we could end up as friends
But until then
We split at this fork in the road
I'm done, nothing more should be told
Nothing more is said
Until the day I'm dead
Make sure my mama's straight ain't got a mill like tread
I hope that it was worth it
Loving on the surface
Cause even through my flaws
My love is always perfect
