What If Lyrics
[Verse 1 - Slim (112)]
What if
What if I never slept around, never cheated on you, girl?
What if
What if I didn't break your heart and never ever ruined your world?
What if
What if I always was a real man, faced you face-to-face, told you the truth?
What if
What If I never ever tripped when you said you wanted
To go out and hang with your crew?
What if
What if I was a different man than I was?
What if
What if I wasn’t so selfish and took one second just to listen to you?
What if
What if I was alone, on my own?
What if
What if I wasn’t so damn controlling? you would still be right here
[Chorus]
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, we would still be together, girl
[Verse 2 - Slim (112)]
What if
What if I didn’t have lame excuses for all the stuff that I do?
What if
What if I had no baby mommas, no damn drama and I never brought it 'round you?
What if
What if never called you out your name and treated you like you were my queen?
What if
What if I woke up from this madness and this shit was just a dream?
What if
What if I really went to work and didn't spend a whole day creeping?
What if
What if you were at the beauty shop and you didn't hear about me last weekend?
What if
What if you ever asked me a question and I didn't stut-stut-stutter all of the time?
What if
What if I wasn’t so damn controlling, you would still
What if
What if I never slept around, never cheated on you, girl?
What if
What if I didn't break your heart and never ever ruined your world?
What if
What if I always was a real man, faced you face-to-face, told you the truth?
What if
What If I never ever tripped when you said you wanted
To go out and hang with your crew?
What if
What if I was a different man than I was?
What if
What if I wasn’t so selfish and took one second just to listen to you?
What if
What if I was alone, on my own?
What if
What if I wasn’t so damn controlling? you would still be right here
[Chorus]
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, we would still be together, girl
[Verse 2 - Slim (112)]

[Chorus]
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, we would still be together, girl
[Verse 3]
What if
What if I never said, "I do," when I knew that I wasn’t ready for you?
What if
What if I gave a damn to my church and did to get off in the VIP
What if
[Break]
What if, what-what if, what if
What-what if
What if
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if
If I didn't
[Chorus]
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
(I'm down on my knees betting for forgiveness)
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, we would still be together, girl
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, we would still be together, girl
[Verse 3]
What if
What if I never said, "I do," when I knew that I wasn’t ready for you?
What if
What if I gave a damn to my church and did to get off in the VIP
What if
[Break]
What if, what-what if, what if
What-what if
What if
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if
If I didn't
[Chorus]
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
(I'm down on my knees betting for forgiveness)
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, be together, be together right now
We would still be together, we would still be together, girl
[Outro]
We would still be together, girl
We would still be together, girl
