Pretending

Lyrics from Snippet So you be tellin' me to stay strong through the fighting Seeing your walls and don't blame me for switching lanes (Switching lanes) My mind is telling me to stop and just let go (Just let go) Possession up front (Possession up front) And when you're heading back, you think I'll be your baby (Be your baby) It ain't no way (It ain't no way) 'Cause I'm not on your mind (Your Mind) I rarely get your time (Get your time) Na-na (Na-na)
