Bittersweet Poetry (feat. John Mayer) Lyrics
Bittersweet, you're gonna be the death of me
I dont want you, but I need you,
I love you and hate you at the very same time
See what I want so much, should never hurt this bad
Never did this before, thats what the virgin said
We've been generally warned, thats what the surgeon says
God talk to me now this is an emergency
And she claim she only with me for the currency,
You cut me deep bitch cut me like surgery
And I was to proud to admit that it was hurtin me
I'd never do that to you at least purposely
We breakin up again we makin up again
but we dont love no more
I guess we fuckin then
Have you ever felt like you wanted to kill her
and you mixed them emotions with tequilla
and you mixed that with a little bad advice
on one of them bad nights
you have a bad fight
and you talkin bout her family her aunts and shit
and she sayin muhfucka yo mama's a bitch
you know domestic drama and shit
All the attitude
ill never hit a girl but ill shake the shit out of you
but im a be the bigger man
big pimpin like jigga man
oh i figure its
Bittersweet, you're gonna be the death of me
I dont want you, but I need you,
I love you and hate you at the very same time
See what I want so much, should never hurt this bad
Never did this before, thats what the virgin said
We've been generally warned, thats what the surgeon says
God talk to me now this is an emergency
And my nigga says I shouldn't let her worry me
I need to focus on the girls we gettin currently
But I've been thinking and it got me back to sinking it
This relationship, it even got me back to drinking now
This Hennessey, is gon be the death of me
And I always thought that you havin my child was our destiny
But I can't even vibe wit you sexually
Cause every time that I try you will question me
Say "you fuckin them girls, disrespecting me?
You don't see how your lies are affecting me?
You don't see how our life was supposed to be?
And I never let a nigga get that close to me!'
And you ain't cracked up to what you was supposed to be!
You always gone! You always be where them hoes would be!"
And it's the first time she ever spilled her soul to me!
I fucked up and I know it G
I guess it's bittersweet poetry
I dont want you, but I need you,
I love you and hate you at the very same time
Never did this before, thats what the virgin said
We've been generally warned, thats what the surgeon says
God talk to me now this is an emergency
And she claim she only with me for the currency,
You cut me deep bitch cut me like surgery
And I was to proud to admit that it was hurtin me
I'd never do that to you at least purposely
We breakin up again we makin up again
but we dont love no more
I guess we fuckin then
Have you ever felt like you wanted to kill her
and you mixed them emotions with tequilla
and you mixed that with a little bad advice
on one of them bad nights
you have a bad fight
and she sayin muhfucka yo mama's a bitch
you know domestic drama and shit
All the attitude
ill never hit a girl but ill shake the shit out of you
but im a be the bigger man

oh i figure its

WHY ISN'T THIS SONG ON GRADUATION? i looked on wiki and it said it was on there on the itunes version of the album. which i bought but its not... ? !!
It's not on Graduation. And this song is amazing. I can relate with relative ease. Kanye = The Man
its on the "deluxe edition" from itunes, i mean i preorded mine so thats how i got it
This song is going to be HUGE. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_z-shZL1KU
i love this song so much. i downloaded a weird version of it a while ago but i cant hear the whole song :(
actually nevermind, i have whats in that video. but how did you get all the words to the song?
obvious what the song means
and he got the full lyrics because before this was a song it was on def poetry ; without john mayer of course.
btw, i love this poem ; and can't wait for the full version of the song to get released :]
Back in October '06 I swore to myself I would have the Bittersweet lyrics as my signatures and msn name until it became the hit it deserved to be... then the album got pushed back about a year :(
If its not on Graduation I'll be really pissed off, though I think it probably will be.
