Song: I Told Ya

Artist: Tynisha Keli





Song:

Ya already know

I gave you everything that I had

Now I gotta go

Cause you took me for granted

I've done this before

I'm not walking back through that door

Think this is what I deserve

But I aint playin these games no more

I've been tryna find a way to trust ya

I know in my heart im better off without ya

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

What hurts me the most is all the second chances

Runnin back to you like you were gonna change but

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

Feel like im goin insane

I'm conflicted with the way I feel

Somethin like love and hate

But a part of my wants you still

But in our history

Too many bad memories

I've done my own share of things

To hurt you

Theres no easy way

To say the end of the road is today

I've been tryna find a way to trust ya

I know in my heart im better off without ya

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

What hurts me the most is all the second chances

Runnin back to you like you were gonna change but

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

I know its hard to let it go

But I cant hold onto this no more

I feel that im through with your love

It's just not enough

You said that you'd be different before

I know its hard to let it go

But I cant hold onto this no more

I feel that im through with your love

It's just not enough

You said you'd be different

But boy you didnt care

I've been tryna find a way to trust ya

I know in my heart im better off without ya

I cant lie to myself

I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

What hurts me the most is all the second chances

Runnin back to you like you were gonna change but

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

I've been tryna find a way to trust ya

I know in my heart im better off without ya

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

What hurts me the most is all the second chances

Runnin back to you like you were gonna change but

I cant lie to myself I know its over

Knew that you would break my heart before I told ya

Response:

To me this song is like her talking about her past relationship, how she feels. Like she still loves him and all, but she cant be in a relationship where she is going to get hurt over and over. And she doesn't want to believe that its over, but she has to face the facts. She put up with a lot and didn't get any of the same emotions in the turn around. So shes through hoping for something that isn't there. Hoping for the hopeless. Like i think its a good song to hear when you think about your past relationships. Its make you think about what you had and how they may have had you blind but after you break up you realize all the things that you ignored but were there plain and clear. Sometimes its just things that make you mad or things that make you cry. She says "I know its hard to let it go, but i cant hold on to this no more." To me shes saying that its hard to forget about but and i like what we had, but she cant do it anymore, shes tired of the stress and the pain she has to go through i the relationship. She talks about how he doesn't care, and she knows he doesn't care. He doesn't care about what she cares about.
