Scars

[Verse 1]

Yeah, He's a walkin'(walkin')

Talkin' (talkin')

Livin' Regret

I wish I never met him, Never slept with him

Never involved myself

If I would have known better

I would never stayed together with you

[Pre-Chorus]

He wrong, so I'm gone and I ain't comin' back

Wish I could be vindictive cause I wanna hurt him back

He wrong, so I'm gone and I ain't comin' back

Wish I could inflict something cause' I just wanna hurt him back

And I'mma make sure I'm drop-dead gorgeous every time he see me so he want it more, more

And I'mma make sure everything is successful let him know he

F*cked around and left the best he had

He's stuck in his ego

He lost when he let me go

I was arguably the best thing that happened to him he know

What I gave he can't find, there ain't nothin' like mine

Thought me and you was just us, I guess you couldn't man up

So I'm gone

[Chorus]

I gave you everything

All of me

All my heart

Now I'm leaving with scars

With scars, with scars, with scars

You could have kept the pain

My heart is slain

Nothin' remains, no more

But Scars

With scars, with scars, with scars

[Verse 2]

Now I can barely make a standing

Here lookin' in your face

Such a disgrace To who we were and what we had

Thought we was on it like Usher and both had it bad

Everything I thought that you stood for I'm takin' all back

[Pre-Chorus]

He wrong so I'm gone, And I ain't comin' back

So tired tryna figure out why this just didn't last

He wrong so I'm gone, and I ain't comin' back

My heart is hurtin' but my mind is sayin' leave his ass

And I'mma make sure I'm drop-dead gorgeous every time he see me so he want it more, more

And I'mma make sure everything is successful let him know he

F*cked around and left the best he had

He stuck in his ego

He lost when he let me go

I was arguably the best thing that happened to him he know

What I gave he can't find, there ain't nothin' like mine

Thought me and you was just us, I guess you couldn't man up

So I'm gone

[Chorus]

I gave you everything

All of me

All my heart

Now I'm leaving with scars

With scars, with scars, with scars

You could have kept the pain

My heart is slain

Nothin' remains, no more

But Scars

With scars, with scars, with scars

[Bridge]

Thought we was gonna build

Thought what we had was real

Thought me and you was gonna have a house in the hills

Maybe 3 or 4 kids

Bently's and drop Benz's

We was supposed to ride out and be best friends

But NO, it all came to an end (came to an end)

Cause I refuse to go through the same sh*t again

Ain't no more questionin'

Ain't no more arguin'

Ain't no more cryin', lyin', tryin' to put up wit him

[Chorus]

I gave you everything

All of me

All my heart

Now I'm leaving with scars

With scars, with scars, with scars

I'm leavin', I'm leavin', I'm leavin'

You could have kept the pain

My heart is slain

Nothin' remains, no more

But Scars

With scars, with scars, with scars

[Outro: Ashanti Talking]

Ugh

We all go through it

So, everyone always wants to know

Like what goes on personally in my life and where I get all my inspiration

I mean, I've gone through a lot, you know?

People that I loved betrayed me and, and I never saw it comin'

It was crazy and it's like, it leaves a lil' scar

You know what I mean? But these scars are like little reminders that you got through it and not to look back

"I'm leavin' with scars"

It's like a double entendre I guess

Cause you're leavin', your scarred

But you're also healed and you don't have to worry about bleeding anymore

You know, a scar, it's like it symbolizes healing

So, it's good that you got the scars and you leave cause your healed up

I'm leaving with scars, I'm leaving with scars, I'm leaving with scars I'm leaving with scars

Said I'm stronger, Yeah
