"Guy Like This" lyrics
It bring me tears of joy to be the man that you need
Working every day to be the best I can be
Never did I think that I could make it this far
Some women back home still dealing with scars
Broke a lot of hearts on boulevard
Looking back at my past and all the pain that I've caused
What about her heart did I consider at all?
Never really meant to get your feelings involved
Cleaned up all my ways and all the things that I do
Hope I never gotta see my karma in you
You deserve someone who's gonna tell you the truth (Uh)
Happy that that's something I can actually do (Do, uh)
I never thought that this could be (This could be)
I'm happy that you're so happy (So happy)
But truth is that
Really wasn't always a guy like this (I wasn't always like this)
Lot of women had to cry for you to smile like this (Smile like this)
A lot of feelings had to die for you to thrive like this (Thrive like this)
For you to look at me with pride and see a guy like this (Pride like this)
I love to see you smile when you smile like this (Smile like this)
How I got you feeling inside like this (Smile like this)
I'm happy that I'm able to be a guy like this (Guy like this)
A lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this (Smile like this)
Yeah
Uh, a lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this
(Oh, a lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this)
Trip into the islands, it's just me and my girl
You can have it all, I wanna give you the world
Put you in Dior, get you diamonds and pearls
Never have to ask, it's just what you deserve
Used to think I'd always be stuck in my ways
'Til I found you, you're the one to blame
Looking back now, I made a lot of mistakes
And someone that my exes probably hate (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You and I knew I had some issues with commitment (Issues with commitment)
All I could do now is ask the Lord for forgiveness (Lord for forgiveness)
Lord, grant forgiveness, please grant forgiveness to me (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
That's the old me, that ain't really how I move (Really how I move)
She ain't never met the type of nigga that you knew (Type of nigga that you knew)
'Cause I tell her the truth and the truth is that
Really wasn't always a guy like this (I wasn't always like this)
Lot of women had to cry for you to smile like this (Smile like this)
A lot of feelings had to die for you to thrive like this (Thrive like this)
For you to look at me with pride and see a guy like this (Pride like this)
I love to see you smile when you smile like this (Smile like this)
How I got you feeling inside like this (Smile like this)
I'm happy that I'm able to be a guy like this (Guy like this)
A lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this (Smile like this)
Yeah
Uh, a lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this
(Oh, a lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this)
That shit hard
(That shit hard)
Working every day to be the best I can be
Never did I think that I could make it this far
Some women back home still dealing with scars
Broke a lot of hearts on boulevard
Looking back at my past and all the pain that I've caused
What about her heart did I consider at all?
Never really meant to get your feelings involved
Cleaned up all my ways and all the things that I do
Hope I never gotta see my karma in you
You deserve someone who's gonna tell you the truth (Uh)
Happy that that's something I can actually do (Do, uh)
I never thought that this could be (This could be)
I'm happy that you're so happy (So happy)
But truth is that
Really wasn't always a guy like this (I wasn't always like this)
Lot of women had to cry for you to smile like this (Smile like this)
A lot of feelings had to die for you to thrive like this (Thrive like this)
For you to look at me with pride and see a guy like this (Pride like this)
I love to see you smile when you smile like this (Smile like this)
How I got you feeling inside like this (Smile like this)
I'm happy that I'm able to be a guy like this (Guy like this)
A lot of hearts had to break for you to smile like this (Smile like this)
