I Mean (I Don't Mean It)

Yeah, I mean,
I'm not trying to hurt you baby, I don't wanna hurt you.
It's just sometimes you do things that make me say things
That I don't wanna say, you know what I'm saying?
You know I love you. You know I care about you.
This time you just brought it on yourself.
Check it out.
Now I shoulda been more man about the way things went down
Specially since we been dealing for like seven years now
I been slowly, slowly bringing you down
No conversation, no good sex in awhile
But still you search and find a way to love me somehow
Even though I lie you still trust me somehow
Got my face in some ice in a towel
Slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly going down
I don't mean it (when I holler at you)
I don't mean it (when I say that we're through)
I don't mean it (when I'm taking you through)
I don't mean it (baby, I)
I don't mean it (said I'm sorry)
I don't mean it (can you find a way to forgive me?)
I don't mean it (said I went to church this morning)
I don't mean it (and I don't mean it)
Walking around here talking about how I'm a big playa now
Hittin them corners, blinging that ice, yeah Kelly makin hits now
Thinking about this industry and how I put it down
You were there for me when I used dishrags for towels
Them times when I didn't hear you I was talking too loud
When I didn't come home I was hanging with the crowd
Whenever we fight I try to win every round
Can you find a way to forgive me now?
I don't mean it (when I holler at you)
I don't mean it (when I say that we're through)
I don't mean it (when I'm taking you through)
I don't mean it (baby, I)
I don't mean it (said I'm sorry)
I don't mean it (can you find a way to forgive me?)
I don't mean it (said I went to church this morning)
I don't mean it (and I don't mean it)
Father can you help me?
What do you need from me?
I broke up wit' my girl and now I'm feeling kinda lonely.
I been watching you from heaven Kelly, you been so demanding.
It's time you read my Word, son, and get some understanding.
But I been busy wit' my music.
Stop making excuses. Recognize the love she gives
And try not to abuse it.
Is it too late to get her back?
Not as long as I'm a fact.
Then Father, show me sign to let me know she's mine
I don't mean it (when I holler at you)
I don't mean it (when I say that we're through)
I don't mean it (when I'm taking you through)
I don't mean it (baby, I)
I don't mean it (said I'm sorry)
I don't mean it (can you find a way to forgive me?)
I don't mean it (said I went to church this morning)
I don't mean it (and I don't mean it)
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
