(Aweh) It's just a cycle, right?
(Eish) I see you driving by, girl.
I saw you rolling down the street today
Sitting in the passenger side in a silver display
I know that engine, I know that sound so well
You traded our heaven for a leather-seat hell
I kept it real, I kept it honest from the start
But you chose the horsepower to drive through my heart
You chose the Benz over me, baby
Thought we were solid, but you’re acting shady
It’s cold in the city, but you’re feeling the heat
Of that German machine moving down the street
You chose the Benz over me, oh why?
Leaving our love in the rearview, goodbye
Was it the badge? Was it the status you craved?
All the memories we built, all the time that we saved
Now you’re posting the flick, focusing on the wheel
I wonder if the leather makes you feel the way you feel
I’m sitting here drinking, thinking 'bout the days
When we were walking, lost in a simple haze
You chose the Benz over me, baby
Thought we were solid, but you’re acting shady
It’s cold in the city, but you’re feeling the heat
Of that German machine moving down the street
You chose the Benz over me, oh why?
Leaving our love in the rearview, goodbye
(Sharp sharp) I’m moving on, but the silence is loud
Searching for your face in the middle of the crowd
But you’re busy shifting gears, moving way too fast
Knowing that the glitz and the glamour won't last
So keep the keys, girl, I hope you find your peace
In the trunk full of empty, let the chasing cease
I gave you my rhythm, he gave you the chrome
Now you’re just a passenger inside of a home
(Asambe) It’s done now, no turning back the time
I’m writing the future, you’re stuck in the rhyme
You chose the Benz over me, baby
Thought we were solid, but you’re acting shady
It’s cold in the city, but you’re feeling the heat
Of that German machine moving down the street
You chose the Benz over me, oh why?
Leaving our love in the rearview, goodbye
(Yebo) Yeah, drive away, girl
I’m better off without the static
Just a memory now
Gone with the wind, gone with the Benz.
