Convicted you mistreated you from what I thought was true
  Neglected you, disrespected you I hated you
  I only knew I had no clue of who she was to you
  So the first thing to do was to find ways to get back at you
  So I took a nobody, turned him into somebody
  So your body could fell the same pain in my body
  Now I see I made a fool of me
  She turned out to be someone close to the family
  I know sometimes I go on ego trips
  Sometimes for no reason I start to flip
  Slowly I've torn down the love we built
  Now I'm swallowin' my pride
  I need you in my life
    Boy don't turn and walk away
  I messed up
  Don't throw it all away
  I messed up
  Just put the blame on me
  I messed up
  Oh, oh ,oh I messed up
  I'm confessing my mistakes
  I messed up
  Don't take your love away
  I messed up
  What will it take for you to stay
  I messed up
  Oh, oh, oh I messed up
    I've been dishonest, broke promises I know I made
  Told secrets we said we'd take to our grave
  I wish I could take it back the wrong I did
  But what's done is done
  I just hope you can forgive
  Sometimes I chill with friends to ease the pain
  When they leave it seems to hurt again
  At night I pray for another chance
  Only God knows how I'm suffering
  Boy please step away from the door
  What happened won't happen anymore
  Should've said this before
  I'm swallowing my pride Cuz I need you in my life
    Boy don't turn and walk away
  I messed up
  Don't throw it all away
  I messed up
  Just put the blame on me
  I messed up
  Oh, oh ,oh I messed up
  I'm confessing my mistakes
  I messed up
  Don't take your love away
  I messed up
  What will it take for you to stay
  I messed up
  Oh, oh, oh I messed up
    Day by day gets harder for me to past the time away
  Pictures slowly fade, memories replayed
  Remember you, you always use to say
  Our love will never stray
  You'll never take you love away
  Never knew you'd be this way
  Until you walked away
  No more sunny days
  It rains on my parade
  With you I had it so good
  If I could take it back
  I swear I would
    Boy don't turn and walk away
  I messed up
  Don't throw it all away
  I messed up
  Just put the blame on me
  I messed up
  Oh, oh ,oh I messed up
  I'm confessing my mistakes
  I messed up
  Don't take your love away
  I messed up
  What will it take for you to stay
  I messed up
  Oh, oh, oh I messed up
    I'm admitting I was wrong
  I messed up
  Don't leave me here alone
  I messed up
  I don't think I could go on
  Oh, oh, oh I messed up
  Boy look into my eyes
  I messed up
  My pain is hard to describe
  I messed up
  I'm confessing my mistakes
  Oh, oh, oh I messed up
    Don't you take you love away
