How Can You Love Me

Ooh

Zee and K, I need to holla at ya

(Mmm)

If you don't mind

'Cause I been holding this for a while, listen

See, I met this woman

She was so fine to me (Ah, yes she was)

She had the body of a stallion (Yes, she did)

And I said that lady, she is the one for me

See for the first few months, we used to go out and kick it

I tell you, we had a lot of fun

We used to party and go out for dinner (Yes we did)

Y'all we had that puppy love (Ooh)

But then my woman started acting funny, y'all

She started tripping for quite some time

We stopped making sweet love

And her excuse was, she was tired (Hmm)

See, y'all, my money had gotten a little low

The shows had started running a lil' slow

See, Corona had got the best of me (Yes it did)

And I couldn't even sing 4 Fa 4

At first, I thought it was a man

Thought it was a man that had her attention

I started blaming myself

And y'all I didn't even, I didn't even know the reason

But then the shows must've came back around

She was in the front row screaming for me

Then she must've snuck backstage

And told me "You know, you been acting funny" (What?)

She even tried to butter me up and say "I love you"

Said "Ooh, Jay, you're the perfect man"

I know you sitting there thinking "What did you tell her, Jay?" (Hmmm)

Well, this is what I said

How can you love me

How can you love me, baby?

When you're too busy loving yourself?

Now who you think you're fooling?

'Cause it sure ain't me, nah nah

Girl, you can't love me

You can't love me, darling

You're just telling a tale

You ain't gotta lie to me, baby

Oh naw, Zee, what you think about it?

Jay, you won't believe

But I'm really

I'm really dealing with the same thang

I tried to be patient

But I don't think it's gonna change

Now I do all I can

I do all I can to make her happy

I turn around and ask her a question

All she do is just look at me

But I notice when she with her friends

She can act so, so different

Talking with no problem

Attitude change in an instant

Now I say to myself

Baby, why you doing so much flexing?

And when she came through the door

I asked her this question

How can you love me

(Now how you gon' love me, girl?)

When you're too busy loving yourself?

(Ain't no way you can love me, it just can't be no way)

Girl, you can't love me

(You can't love me, baby)

You're just telling a tale

Bro, these women gotta quit it

K, can you tell me how you feeling?

Now wait a minute, in a woman's defense (Aww, here it go)

I gotta tell you, bro, how I feel about this (I'm listening)

One man can make one woman hate all men (Here you go, taking up for her)

I ain't tryna take no sidesss (Well sis, what you doing?)

I'm just trying to tell you what it is (Hmmmm hmmmm)

Jay, did she talk about her past? (Yes she did)

Zee, did she say what happened before you? (Yeah)

Sometimes we can make mistakes

You gotta understand what we be going through

Sis was wrong, but y'all be wrong too

And then get mad at us and play us like a fool

So even though I understand your pain

To stay sane, gotta do some selfish things

Before I give you what you need

Baby boy, I gotta love me, that's how

How can you love me

(I gotta loveee meeee babyyy before I loooooovveee you)

When you're too busy loving yourself?

(Oh)

(I get it, but I don't believe my lady)

Girl, you can't love me

(I can love you, baby, you gotta believe me)

You're just telling a tale

(I'm just working on me right now)

Oh so that's what they doing?

Well, Zee, let's go ask 'em then
