Nobody told me there'd be days
there'd be days like this (2x)
Would you believe me if I told you that I've never cheated?
Probably not, but I swear to you its no misleading
I got some thangs that I been dealing with
that make me question is my mindset still innocent?
She got my heart true
But She got my hormones
Imagine her screaming the sounds that a whore moans
Lord knows that i love her so
But it seems as time passes
I wonder mo'
What are these other women like?
Don't even wanna know em'
I just wanna spend the night
I know that that's immoral
But its what I feel, aight?
I'm trying to be truthful
but all you do is lie to me and say the feeling's mutual
holding on to pride
while i'm holding on to fear
that one day I may have to be unfaithful to my dear
and I can't fight the feeling now
don't even know what I'm feeling now
chorus
I'm fighting the feeling
everyday I'm on the verge and I can't seem to kick the urge
fighting the feeling
I can't speak what's on my mind, guess its been building over time
fighting the feeling
And now it's got me all confused
All I know is I don't wanna lose
Fighting the feeling
Fighting the feeling
I know I feel guilty
I kinda think I'm wrong
cause I just want you to stay
while i linger on
and that ain't fair at all
we in a gray area now
and I barely call
yet somehow you still got my soul
I bare it all
but you don't care it all
don't wanna hear my song
you heard it all along
I'm caught up in a 'Jonz in my Bonz'
got my 'Brown Sugar' going
Life kinda like D'Angelo's poems
but baby I'm still him
baby I'm still Damon
same ol' G
I'm just hoping you still patient
same ol' me
been the same since in the playpen
and I never change, I remain
until my day's end
I'm kinda paranoid
I don't trust someone
I been feeling some thangs I wanna run from
like something inside of my heart is undone
busy wondering where did this lust come from?
chorus
Nobody told me there'd be days
there'd be days like this
No
Now, how do I clear mixed emotions?
Can't go to mama now
I think I need some different coaching
Oh wait, too late see now she left me
That's probably cause I left her
Wonder should I text her
But I don't wanna stress her
but all the stress i'm feeling now
might leave me on a stretcher
Oh wait extra extra!
my best friend is a snake
spreading lies on the regular
I also lost my job
feel my heart I need a check-up
and now I need her more than ever
but on the flip side, still thinking horny pleasures
I swear that sometimes I'm so dumb
and I would love for my temptation here to go numb
Don't even drink, yet I'm so drunk
And this is weird though, I never ever acted on my impulses
I told you I never cheated but listen closely
Ya see, everything ain't always bout your actions
Sometimes you could have an inappropriate attraction
