I Couldn't Help It
Joe Budden

We had a beautiful relationship at one point

But then, then that shit changed with the quickness

Maybe 'cause I was fuckin' other bitches

Or maybe we had no business havin' business

Not the girl that I would wanna raise kids with

But still that shit happened regardless

I was so young, back then so heartless

And the shit I was thinkin' could of caught me some charges

Listen, I tried to talk to her normally

That shit ain't work for one second, she was on to me

I tried to explain, how I ain't have a dollar to my name

Pursuin' this rap shit, chasin' fame

Young dude stressed in the hood like Jesus

I ain't ready for no child but she was

When you piss poor get to havin' sick thoughts

While the chick probably sittin' there thinkin' 'bout marriage

I'm thinkin' abortion like a savage

On purpose accident to have a miscarriage

Her a mother of mine I couldn't end up seein'

Plus what type of mother would you end up bein'

You already a psycho, I wouldn't let that pass

I ain't think lifetime bond, I thought fat ass

All them times you were pregnant and miserable

All them fights we had that got physical

Every time I sent you packin', pissed at you

Like I ain't want to live with you, yeah, I kind of planned that

Ain't considerate, sounds just like me

Then you put someone out that looks just like me

I grabbed my little dude up, looked 'em in his eyes

And you can't understand right now I apologize

How could I not want you here, be that selfish

Fuck was on my mind at the time, my bad I couldn't help it

Nah, I mean I couldn't help it, for real I couldn't help it

Even though I try, must've been somethin' goin' on inside

No lie, couldn't help it, nah, I couldn't help it

Now this is how you know we go through phases

'Cause he done sold millions of records

Plus they done been together for ages

I don't really know how to say this

Me and old boy done shared a couple of stages

But he wasn't around when I saw her in Vegas

She said remember me, I thought I should lie

I looked baby up and down and said should I?

Maybe she my old broad, maybe she a singer

I looked down, seen a chunky rock on her finger

She said I'm Blanks wife, how you been and what you doin' here?

I should of asked her that same shit

Snoop had already told me that bitches ain't shit

And the industries so small, that's how the game is

When you famous, everybody's a bilingual plaintiff

And the defendant speaks one language

But we exchanged numbers like fuck it

All we gon' talk about is music

Neither one of us will ever use it

But shorty she ain't hesitate to use it

Four a.m., where do I begin?

She's leavin' the club, I'm about to win

She's so aggressive like, what room are you in?

I ain't answer, she said meet her downstairs in ten

So now we totally disrespectin' his star

I'm with his bitch and she in his car

She said hop in, let's head to the strip bar

Bad ass friend with her and then she kissed ma

And now I'm so confused

She starts tellin' me about how she's so abused

How he beats her ass, how he takes that figure

And I'm in my head thinkin' I don't blame that nigga

We hit the club like everythin's wonderful

She touchin' me, I'm feelin' uncomfortable

And then the DJ threw on somethin' slow

I'm grindin' on her friend, now she wantin' to go

Dude's wife started whisperin' in my ear

I'm startin' to see it clear, she don't care

Shorty's down with whatever

She said, let's go to your room all together

I'm sure the two of us will make it worth your wild

Now your friend looks great and I really wanna fuck her

But I can't be your side dude, can't be your lover

Caught on my old school shit just to thug her

We got to the room, told her I ain't have a rubber

I thought it worked at first

One looked disappointed and one looked hurt

But her trifelin' ass went and made shit worse

She reached down, pulled a few of those out her purse

Got on her knees, started playin' with the head

All her dudes lyrics started playin' in my head

Her friend jumps in, probably feelin' left out

I'm filled with guilt 'cause all I can think 'bout was

He have her on TV with your kids

I got her on the TV in her ribs

Please God forgive, regret what I did

That ain't the lifestyle I wanna live

Just then I couldn't help it

Nah, I couldn't help it, for real I couldn't help it

Even though I try, must've been somethin' goin' on inside

No lie, couldn't help it, nah, I couldn't help it
