I thought I knew as well as most, not to try to beat you
When the threat of losing's never far away
Now time has passed I'm older now, I wonder if I could teach you
To be better at being more reasoned and diplomatic
PRE-CHORUS:
And honestly, I had to walk away from it
The truth you see, it stressed me all the time
So don't ask me, about things I can't control, don't get mad get even
So don't lose sleep, over things you can never know, don't get mad get even
The warning signs were there to see, from plenty other bodies
When the simple truth is real friends don't fight over money
See you've always had a way with words but your jokes they still fall flat,
If it's not the punchline it's in the way you tell them
PRE-CHORUS:
And honestly you need to walk away from this
The truth you see, it's stressed you all the time too
So don't ask me, about things I can't control, don't get mad get even
So don't lose sleep, over things you can never know, don't get mad get even
MIDDLE EIGHT:
Now I know, what was harder to see, but there's a clear divide, a greater distance between you and me….
BREAKDOWN BUILDING INTO CHORUS:
So don't ask me, about things I can't control, don't get mad get even
So don't lose asleep, over things I can never know, don't get mad get even
Don't Get Mad Get Even, Don't Get Mad Get Even, Don't Get Mad Get Even
