[Intro: Diddy, Mary J. Blige]

Can you feel me?

I want her to feel it in her chest

I want her to feel it in her soul

I want her to lose control

Mary, talk to 'em

I

Yeah

I

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

You takin' a part of me

That I cannot set free

See me lettin' go

No this ain't the time

I got too much livin' to do

And I can't lose it over you

So give me the flow

I'll get my swagger goin'

I'll say this is the year for me

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

[Verse 1: Diddy]

Damn, you been around and been down the whole way

I know I make it hard to love me, but trust me

I could take you to places that you ain't never been

Put you in purple labels and that ferroin

Get your name engraved on a weaderin

On everything I'mma love you better more than I ever did

See baby girl listen

Since you been here with me

Can't even lie, see the rider and your ambition

Providin' me with the fire

When you wet and drippin'

Mama if you see if you different

Go 'head and get it

And I ain't sayin' if you leave me it'd be better

But me and you together, honey we could do whatever (Let’s do it)

I made it hard I admit it it's true

I need to hear somethin'

I'm listenin' boo (talk to ‘em)

[Bridge: Mary J. Blige]

Submit to a heart as fake as sure the things improve

I’m prepared to take it there for you

Your love, it keeps me nervous

Ain’t no purpose, constant chest pains

It’s amazin’, but it ain’t enough

Friends keep askin’, i’m stayin’ around

For what?

Who shelters me the key is rewind to where reminders of what it is

Oh, oh, oh

[Interlude: Diddy]

I know I'm hard to love

Let's rock

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

[Verse 2: Diddy]

Lemme talk to you one more time girl

You always sayin' that I don't want you to hurt

You always complainin'

But I was makin' it worse

Besides all the games that I's kickin' at first

It's time to explain

My mind's been in reverse

But now I think back

When nobody cared

And you was there

Just to roll by your man

And came back

Even know what I did

I realize and I'm aware

I know what it is

Put that on everything, girl you my everything

I don't know where I'd be, ‘cause you the air I breathe

If lovin' is wrong, who could be right?

I wouldn't know what to do without you in my life

You're more to me than the world I pray

The more nights for your heart to break

Right in the middle of the dawn of day

I think of all the pain I caused

And throw it away and say

I need you in my life

Can you feel it in your soul

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

[Interlude: Diddy]

I know it's hard to love me

That don't mean I don't love you

Hey rich

I love the way you got Harlem singin'

Mary take us home

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

You makin it so damn hard

For me to love you

[Outro: Diddy & Mary J. Blige]

She the queen of hip-hop soul

Yeah You Are
