I'm not tryna hate, you shoulda known better
Better than to let him even get that close
Close enough to break your heart
Tried to be there, you made it so hard, oh
Shoulda listen from the jump
Instead you tried to stunt
I'm the one you want
Shawty why you gotta front?
You know you're the only one for me
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be?
Tears running down your face, they fall in the sea
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be?
I can see the tear drops falling on your face now
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be?
He never really loved you, I came to take his place now
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be together?
She hit me on the phone, I can hear the pain
Baby it's a shame, he still playing games
I-I tried to calm her down
But she just kept on tellin' me that something's going on
You never ever shoulda let him get your love
I swear you gave him something that he didn't deserve
You know you shoulda listened, now you can't explain
Why you going through the same ol' thing? You know
You know you're the only one for me
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be?
Tears running down your face, they fall in the sea
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be?
I can see the tear drops falling on your face now
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be?
He never really loved you, I came to take his place now
Why you settle for whatever when we 'pose to be together?
Baby girl look at me
I'm so sick and tired of wiping tears from your cheek
You say you want to be with me
But you still with him so it makes me think
'Bout the things that you said
All the phone calls and the e-mails that I read
The lonely nights in your bed
Are you tellin' me the truth or are you messin' with my head?
So, now you want to be with me or should I go now
I really wanna roll with you, so how
Are you gonna handle this?
You said he treat you wrong but you love my kiss
It's time that you tell me what's on your mind
Praying to God that you're not that blind
Real love is so hard to find
Do you wanna shine? It's mine
I can see the tear drops falling on your face now
He never really loved you I came to take his place now
