When i look back at the beginning All the praise that i was winning things that i was singing They were just verses filled with words Needed to find a way to bring it back to earth But then you came without a sound And you pulled me down I gotta thank God for having you around Or else i'd be floating away And i gotta say that i hope you stay Cause i been walking round with my regret in my pocket Gotta figure out a way to stop it to block it From bringing me down with these memories of pain Gotta switch it round cause they're lessons to gain And i was thinking that you'd think differently of me Only showed you what i wanted you to see and nothing else Put the real me on the shelf but you're the only one that could tell And I want to thank you baby for bringing me down I want to thank you baby for bringing me down You were making these signs that were designed To mess with my mind and you got me everytime But i'm done with feeling stupid and you know that cupid Can't wait for me and you And it's my mission to throw your inhibitions away Let's make it nonfiction today Cause now i'm for real you know i feel And i kinda want know what you say And I want to thank you baby for bringing me down I want to thank you baby for bringing me down When i look back at the beginning All the praise that i was winning things that i was singing They were just verses filled with words Needed to find a way to bring it back to earth
