[Intro: ~Bootsy Collins~]
I'd rather be with you- yeah... yeah
I'd rather be with you...
I'd rather be with you- yeah... yeah
I'd rather be with you...
[Verse 1:]
Kickin' back tryna get some relaxation
Put the blunt to my lip as I take a hit of the only thing
To keep my mind away from everything...
To ease the pain and refrain me from goin' insane...
You were the only drug I needed...
I made you God but you defeated me...
And now I'm detoxing from you and I will be tormented...
It ain't ever gonna be the same again
It's tainted... It's a shame I ain't with you and it's the end... ooooh...
[Hook:]
I'd rather be with you... yeah... yeah
I'd rather be with you...
I'd rather be with you but I can't do that
Gotta do what I gotta do can't go back I'm a keep it movin'
Rather be with you and I'm a do what I gotta do to stay away from you...
[Verse 2:]
So beautiful on the outside but feelin' ugly as shit within...
It's pitiful if ya hold it inside when ya know you're really sufferin...
Just frontin- actin' like it's nothin' when you're really hurtin'
Cause you're broken... before the fall comes pride-
You hold it inside- you'll never be the same again...
You said that you lost interest and I said cause you can't stick with shit
I bet you can do better than me
But yet the bitch'll never be ME...
God- please help me breathe
I gotta save myself from me
I'd rather be with you
You'd rather be without me
Gotta do what I do
I'm a let you be...
[Hook:]
I'd rather be with you... yeah... yeah
I'd rather be with you...
I'd rather be with you but I can't do that
Gotta do what I gotta do can't go back I'm a keep it movin'
Rather be with you and I'm a do what I gotta do to stay away from you...
[Verse 3:]
I'd rather be with you but I guess I'll chalk it all to the game...
I'd rather be with you but I know I'm never gonna be the same...
I might as well self destruct
But I gotta maintain... Or sabatoge how far I came...
I'm bitter- synical- a little bit resentful
So damn mad cause I gave you the best of me...
Can you feel my pain?...
Can you feel my pain?...
I ain't never gonna be the same again
I hate this... Here I am lovin' you again... ooooh...
[Hook:]
I'd rather be with you... yeah... yeah
I'd rather be with you...
I'd rather be with you but I can't do that
Gotta do what I gotta do can't go back I'm a keep it movin'
Rather be with you and I'm a do what I gotta do to stay away from you...
