Erik - Honesty Lyrics

This cheating life got a nigga going crazy
And honestly, I'm just over entertaining
Woman after woman
Trying to get the perfect chic
When I had her all along
Putting up with my shit
Uh
This cheating life got a nigga going crazy
And honestly, I'm just over entertaining
Woman after woman
Trying to get the perfect chic
When I had her all along
Putting up with my shit
Uh

Just turned 30 and I'm out for a drink
I'm with my niggas at a club
Trying to find me a freak
I see this girl and I approach
Let me buy you a drink
I know later on that night
We gonna jump in the sheets
Peep
I got a woman that loves me
Place no one above me
But she bug me
And I'm just feeling myself
Like f*ckin' on anything
Is really good for my health
Already got a sack chaser
Coming after my wealth
I make the shit a little worse
Staying out all night
And when I make back home
She looked me right in my eyes
She asked
"Did you have a good time?"
I said yes
With a straight face
That really wasn't a lie
But the truth is
I'm out here living life
Like it's lucid
Telling all the lies
When she already know
The truth is
I've been doing dirt
All the hurt
Kinda stupid
And I'm only sharing
Cus it's on that we moving

This cheating life got a nigga going crazy
And honestly, I'm just over entertaining
Woman after woman
Trying to get the perfect chic
When I had her all along
Putting up with my shit
Uh
This cheating life got a nigga going crazy
And honestly, I'm just over entertaining
Woman after woman
Trying to get the perfect chic
When I had her all along
Putting up with my shit
Uh

Turns out I got a partner in business
And she den put up with a lot
Triple time forgiveness
I was ready to give it up plenty of times forgettin'
All of the work that I den done
Ain't no time for quittin'
But I thought it was
Everything that came along
I was happy for a minute
Til the shine wore off
She asked me
"Why you always ready to leave
If we have a fight?"
I be just ready to go
I don't like to fight
But We got it together
Made everything better
It's like I got the money
Then I found a buried treasure
You the one
And you been that all along
I was the one that didn't know
Now I'm singin' this song

This cheating life got a nigga going crazy
And honestly, I'm just over entertaining
Woman after woman
Trying to get the perfect chic
When I had her all along
Putting up with my shit
Uh
This cheating life got a nigga going crazy
And honestly, I'm just over entertaining
Woman after woman
Trying to get the perfect chic
When I had her all along
Putting up with my shit
Uh

"Um Erik
You know the song is good but

Just don't know what it gonna do for our numbers at this point
Ya know
Cus
Here at Titanic Records sex sells
Ya know
It's good that you want to be part of this black man don't cheat society
And ya wanna ya know
Make songs about your wife
And, and that's good and all
And I like that
However, it's just not good for numbers
I just don't think it's gonna sell
Ya know
So um I mean...
What I would suggest is maybe um
Ya know
Taking the ring off a little bit
Ya know
Flaunting, flaunting the single life
Take a couple of pictures with some models
Ya know
Just kinda get out there
Ya know
That way we can, um
Um, ya know
Try to get your numbers up
Put this song, um
We'll put this song on the back shelf
We don't need to have this song in front
Um, ya know, so just, um
Take a couple of pictures
Go hang out at the club
Ya know
Live the single life for a little bit
And you could stand to lose a few pounds too"
