We started off as close friends
Where do I begin?
We were moving on too fast
Fallin’ deep in
You know we had a good run
But everything must change
‘Cause you ain’t been so good for my energy
So I’ma have to walk away
I know that no one’s perfect really but I value all my time
Not to say that you ain’t worthy but I really can’t play with mine

So I gotta hold on to my peace
‘Cause I can’t get it back when from nobody once it’s all gone
(When it’s all gone it’s all gone)
Gotta protect all of my peace
I can feel it in my soul when it ain’t right it’s all wrong
(When it’s all wrong it’s all wrong) (Yeah)

We should’ve stayed just close friends
Beginning of the end
Maybe I made too many keys to my heart
And I let the wrong one in
See you don’t want no one to hold you back
If that’s what it is then I’ll leave you
And you don’t want no regrets
And I don’t want them either
So
I know that no one’s perfect really but I value all my time
Not to say that you ain’t worthy but I really can’t play with mine

So I gotta hold on to my peace
‘Cause I can’t get it back when from nobody once it’s all gone
(When it’s all gone it’s all gone)
Gotta’ protect all of my peace
I can feel it in my soul when it ain’t right it’s all wrong
(When it’s all wrong it’s all wrong) (Yeah)

See I don’t care who it is remember this
Always keep your
Peace first
Peace first
Peace first
Yeah, see here’s the thing about it
And you gotta’ respect it (in my life I know that)
He’s first
He’s first
He’s first

So I gotta hold on to my peace
‘Cause I can’t get it back when from nobody once it’s all gone
(When it’s all gone it’s all gone)
Gotta’ protect all of my peace
I can feel it in my soul when it ain’t right it’s all wrong
(When it’s all wrong – it’s all wrong) (Yeah)
So I gotta’ hold on to my peace
‘Cause I can’t get it back when from nobody once it’s all gone
(When it’s all gone it’s all gone)
Gotta’ protect all of my peace
I can feel it in my soul when it ain’t right it’s all wrong
(When it’s all wrong it’s all wrong) (Yeah)
