[Intro Chorus]

Dear I fear, we're facing a problem

You love me no longer, I know it

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

"I tried" is an understatement

Just know I love you, you know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

It's probably your fault 'cause you always tripping and I'm always...

Just know I love you, you know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

"I tried" is an understatement

But just know I love you, you know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

It's probably your fault 'cause you always tripping and I'm always listening


[Verse 1]

You always crying, boo-hooing and sniffing

Think I'm always lying bout that one and this one

You always inquiring, fall back, mind your business

'Cause you see me with her don't mean that I'm with her

It was one night, I don't even remember

You think about the bitch more than I do

She don't think about you more than I do

Now you go get some new nigga

He can pretend to be all that you want

I won't befriend you

I'll just begin to continue the process of trying to forget you

Love is so mental

I bet you thought that shit wouldn't even get to a nigga like me though

But I am no robot

I take my key out your body, your door knob

And then watch some new nigga come knock that door down

The tables go 'round, go 'round

You know how this shit gon' go down

Since you Misses Know It All, I'm Mr. Know How

I know how to keep keep relationships low profile

But you want be seen, you want be envied

You don't want love, you want an image

'Cause I put real love right there in your face

You treat it like a blemish

Stop trying to be pretty, if you don't know anything baby


[Chorus]

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

"I tried" is an understatement

But just know I love you, you know I love you baby

If it don't work out for some reason

It's probably your fault 'cause you always tripping and I'm always listening


[Verse 2]

We always bickering, Lord knows I'm sick of it

I can't continue this, I just want happiness

You just want benefits

How can I benefit from this whole situation when I'm limitless

When it comes to my feelings and my willingness

To blame your ignorance on an experience

Still take you serious, I'm such an idiot

I'm fucking risking it fucking with you girl, fucking with you girl

Should've know you was just something to do when there's nothing to do girl

Now you talking this shit 'bout my new girl, acting like a lil girl

You are now no longer in Wayne's world, welcome to the real world

I'ma just move on, you should just move on

It ain't about who right or who wrong

It's about living the type of life you want

No need for us to go back, there's no moon walking in this bitch

I tried too hard to make this shit work but it's too gone

So let's just be friends and bury the hatchet and read what it say on the tombstone

It says...


[Outro Chorus]

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

"I tried" is an understatement

But just know I love you, you know I love you baby

If it don't work out for some reason

It's probably your fault 'cause you always tripping and I'm always...

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

"I tried" is an understatement

But just know I love you, you know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

It's probably your fault 'cause you always tripping and I'm always...

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

Just know I love you, just know I love you baby

And if it don't work out for some reason

It's probably your fault 'cause you always tripping...

And I'm always listening


[Outro: The Cardigans Sample]

Dear, I fear we're facing a problem

You love me no longer, I know and

Maybe there is nothing that I can do

To make you do

Mama tells me...
