[Intro: Guy]
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing, baby
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Nas]
~#**************#~
Bye baby, I guess you knew why I walked away
~#**************#~
When we walked to the altar, that was an awesome day
~#**************#~
Did counselling, couldnt force me to stay
~#**************#~
Something happened when you say I do, we go astray
~#**************#~
Why did we mess it up? We was friends, we had it all
~#**************#~
Reason you dont trust men, that was your daddy fault
~#**************#~
He in the grave – let it go, he no longer living
~#**************#~
Said you caught him cheating with mom, fucking other women
~#**************#~
Fuck that gotta do with us? Heres the keys to the newest truck
~#**************#~
Birkin bags, we burning cash, now baby, do it up
~#**************#~
No matter who you fuck, that was before me
~#**************#~
Wanted you as my shorty since I saw you screaming
~#**************#~
“Hate you so much right now”
~#**************#~
Shouldve saw the meaning, angry black women
~#**************#~
Actions of a demon, Im leaving
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Guy and (Nas)]
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing, baby (Bye baby)
~#**************#~
You know Im saying bye-bye (Bye-bye baby)
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im saying bye-bye (Bye baby)
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im saying bye-bye
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing, baby
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Nas]
~#**************#~
Bye baby, I guess you know why I had to leave
~#**************#~
Seven months in your pregnancy, bout to have my seed
~#**************#~
Lets take it back some years, rewind it to the happy years
~#**************#~
You and your Star Trak fam, Im thinking you cats are weird
~#**************#~
Same time, different year, I was digging yall flow
~#**************#~
Then I tatted you on my arm so niggas would know
~#**************#~
I thought no one could stop us, matching gold watches
~#**************#~
I was your Johnny Depp, you was my Janis Joplin
~#**************#~
Yet, the cuter version, yet, I knew you personally
~#**************#~
Better than you knew yourself, and I knew this for certain
~#**************#~
Crib in the Dominican, we got away from everybody
~#**************#~
You screaming at the racist cops in Miami was probably
~#**************#~
The highlight of my life, like “Ha, yo, look at my wife!”
~#**************#~
Gangsta, me and 20 cops bout to fight, crazy night
~#**************#~
Bailed you out, next morning we got clean
~#**************#~
Like it never happened, then later we at that Heat game
~#**************#~
Just another day in the life, of two people in love
~#**************#~
But it wasnt enough, so baby guess what…
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Guy and (Nas)]
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing, baby (Bye baby)
~#**************#~
OH! OH! AHHHHHHHH! Bye-bye (Bye-bye baby)
~#**************#~
I cant believe that this is happening to us
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im saying bye-bye (Bye baby) Forever
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im saying bye-bye
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing, baby
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Nas]
~#**************#~
Listen, could you imagine writing your deposition?
~#**************#~
Divorce lawyer telling you how this thing gonna be ending?
~#**************#~
With you paying out the ass and Im talking half
~#**************#~
Not some, but half, no, serious, half
~#**************#~
Half of your soul, half of your heart, you leaving behind
~#**************#~
It’s either that or die, I wanted peace of mind
~#**************#~
And all I seen was suckers, cowards
~#**************#~
Under their breath, saying, “Why did Nas trust her?”
~#**************#~
But look at yourself! Speak louder, bruh!
~#**************#~
You live with your baby moms
~#**************#~
And scared to make an honest woman out of her
~#**************#~
And make her your bride, fake pimps, you aint even a lie
~#**************#~
At least I can say I tried, plus enjoyed the ride
~#**************#~
Plus we got our little boy, my little joy and pride
~#**************#~
He got my nose, my grill, your color, your eyes
~#**************#~
Next go round I hope I pick the truest type
~#**************#~
And watch me do it all again, it’s a beautiful life, aight?
~#**************#~
Goodbye!
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Guy and (Nas)]
~#**************#~
(Bye baby) Baby.. baby
~#**************#~
You know Im saying bye-bye (Bye-bye baby)
~#**************#~
I cant believe that this is happening to us
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im saying bye-bye (Bye baby)
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing
~#**************#~
You know Im saying bye-bye
~#**************#~
I guess you just knew and blew a good thing, baby
~#**************#~
[Outro: Guy]
~#**************#~
Gimme the key back, baby
~#**************#~
I want your love back, baby, oh
~#**************#~
Gimme the key back, baby, oh
~#**************#~
‘Til we make love just one more time
~#**************#~
Make it seem forever
~#**************#~
This is our last and final goodbye
~#**************#~
Goodbye
