“What I Won’t Do”

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I was on top of the world, yeah, the fame was right there
Had a taste of that Hollywood, felt the buzz in the air
3.5 mil, yeah, they offered the stars
But there are some things in life, you don’t go that far

You said you’d always be proud of me, girl
Through all the highs and lows in this crazy world
But when I said no, you were gone in a flash
Left me standing in the light, watching it crash

(Chorus)
I could have had it all, but I stood my ground
Said goodbye to the life that I’d found
For love, for pride, there’s lines I won’t cross
Even when it means I’m feeling the loss

What I won’t do, no amount can sway
’Cause some things mean more at the end of the day
It cost me you, but I’d do it again
Standing true, not bending to win

(Verse 2)
I remember when we had nothing at all
Dreamed together, never thought we’d fall
But you wanted more, and I couldn’t fake
A man’s got limits to the roles he’ll take

You were my ride or die, or so you said
Now it’s just memories dancing in my head
Chose my truth over the glitter and gold
Sometimes the price is leaving love cold

(Chorus)
I could have had it all, but I stood my ground
Said goodbye to the life that I’d found
For love, for pride, there’s lines I won’t cross
Even when it means I’m feeling the loss

What I won’t do, no amount can sway
’Cause some things mean more at the end of the day
It cost me you, but I’d do it again
Standing true, not bending to win

(Bridge)
Yeah, they say fame has a price you pay
But I never thought you’d be the one to walk away
I’m still that man with his heart on the line
Left here with my pride, but no hand in mine

(Chorus)
I could have had it all, but I stood my ground
Said goodbye to the life that I’d found
For love, for pride, there’s lines I won’t cross
Even when it means I’m feeling the loss

(Outro)
What I won’t do, baby, you know it’s real
Sometimes we lose for the things we feel
In another life, maybe you’d stay
But this is what I won’t do at the end of the day
