I’ve Been Hustled
[Verse 1]
I'm leavin' cause I'm tired of this kind of life we live
You're contempt, not ambitious enough
It's taking it's toll, money is low
You're relaxing, acting like nothing is happening
Watching my friend's progress
It is killing me slow
You're not the same man
I met three years ago
I can't believe I've fallen
To the dream you've sown
Your drinking's getting worse
I can feel it coming outta your clothes
I'm not a gold digger, nigga
But I expect more
[Chorus]
I've been hustled, been played a fool
I never loved anyone the way I loved you
I was your muscle, now it's time to let go
I've been hustled, played for a fool
If you with another girl tolerate what I been through
I was your muscle, now it's time to let go
I've been hustled
[Verse 2]
I'm used to playing it safe
Let me go down for your sake
Forget it, boy
You had a lot of get up and go's
Socks and dirty clothes on the bathroom floor
A condom in your wallet, what is it there for?
Before you hurt me I gotta leave you
So easy, it's so easy, watch
My love's in the way
Like it's weighing on a peaceful mind
I be damned if I be with a man who won't treat me right
Things aren't getting better
They only getting worse
What I thought was a blessing
Has become a curse
[Chorus]
I've been hustled, been played a fool
I never loved anyone the way I loved you
I was your muscle, now it's time to let go
I've been hustled, played for a fool
If you with another girl tolerate what I been through
I was your muscle, now it's time to let go
I've been hustled
