4 Minutes Lyrics By Avant

    hold hold up hold up
    slow slow down
    listen give me 0 minutes
    well give me 5 minutesa’ight
    bbefore you leave i just need these last 4 minutes

    pardon me if i’m talking fast and stumbling all over my words
    i heard you were leavin’ town
    i thought i’d be the one to know first
    if you have a minute let me talk to you and see what’s going on
    don’t say it’s nothing
    when it’s gotta be something that’s gone wrong
    now let me explain but i don’t know what to say
    ’cause i don’t know what the hell happened
    i come in the house to try to work it out
    and all you’re doing is packing
    close your suitcase let me think straight
    damn what could be the reason
    baby talk to me i’m almost out of time

    i only got 4 minutes to do what i gotta do
    to prove to you that i’m gon’ do anything
    only got 4 minutes say what i gotta say to make you stay
    and show you that i done changed
    ’cause in 4 minutes
    i’ll never have my girl again
    in 4 minutes
    i’m a lose her to some other man
    4 no less no more
    i’m desperate cause the clock’s ticking
    only got 4 minutes to go

    who are these people i don’t know in my house
    and they scratching my floors
    takin’ furniture outside and the uhaul pull up to my door
    what’s the reason that i get this feelin’
    that you can’t keep it real with me
    is it cause of the prior relationships i had off in the streets
    never mind that this is your conscience speaking
    and you need to get your girl back
    you gotta find a way to try to get to her heart
    i’m takin’ suggestions i’ve learned my lesson
    think conscience you’re my last lifeline
    i’m down to my last second

    i only got 4 minutes to do what i gotta do
    to prove to you that i’m gon’ do anything
    only got 4 minutes say what i gotta say to make you stay
    and show you that i done changed
    ’cause in 4 minutes
    i’ll never have my girl again
    in 4 minutes
    i’m a lose her to some other man
    4 no less no more
    i’m desperate cause the clock’s ticking
    only got 4 minutes to go

    i’ve done things in my past
    i thought this love would last
    but i can’t let you go baby
    you’re my everything lady
    the reason i smile and the reason i talk baby
    the reason i breathe
    the only one for me yeah
    you can’t go through with this
    if you left me my life wouldn’t exist
    cause i’m still in love with you
    and that’s my word i don’t give a damn what you heard
    oh baby i’ll be true

    variant
    i only got 4 minutes
    and i’m running out of time
    i only got 4 minutes
    i only got 4 minutes
    4 minutes i’ll never have my girl again
    in 4 minutes i’m a lose her to some other man
    4 no less no more
    cause the clocks ticking
    only got 4 minutes to go

    only got 4 minutes to tell you everything i love about you
    4 minutes to say i need you i can’t live without you
    i’m out of time gotta say what’s on my mind
    just to keep you in my life
    aw damn i’m outta time
