verse
I wanna know how we became so distant, girl
The way we fell in love, it was almost instant
I'm tryna find a way around it
Girl, tell me how you feel about it
You still love me, that's the way it's sounding
Thank God I would've never found this
verse
I doubt it, I'm there for you if you will allow it
Girl, you know I gotta keep you around me
All this paper we counting
Spend it on you, baby, no matter what the amount is
Now you wanna know what's gotten into me, what's changed?
I guess I had a hard time showing it at first
chorus
Baby, I still feel the same
Something I gotta maintain
Baby, it's always, always
Always been that way, yay
chorus
It's always been that way (didn't I tell you girl?)
It's always been that way
Baby, I still feel the same
Something I gotta maintain
It's always been that way
verse
How did we become so distant?
Like I'm the one to blame and your innocent
I tried to make a way, make a difference
But some things don't change, I can't complain
I try not to think about you
What can I say, every time I get near you
I want that old thing back, now bring it to me
verse
Shawty keep telling me what to do about you
Think she got jealous soon as she knew about you
She don't never want to see us go through a round two (cut her off)
Cut her off, that's what I'm doing now
You told me I should just go out and do my thing (damn right)
Damn right, I'll do my thing
Now you wanna know what's gotten into me, what's changed?
chorus
It's always been that way
It's always been that way
Baby, I still feel the same
Something I gotta maintain
It's always been that way
It's always been that way, oh yeah
It's always been that way (yeah, uh-huh)
