Ask Too Much

I don't, I don't need to hear about all those guys
I figured out that you're just making me jealous
Working, working, I sit down and write
And you fight with all your might to make your way to my paper

Am I asking way too much of you
'Cause you still do the things you always do
Am I asking way too much of you
I need you but you never follow through

I can't, I can't, seem to figure out
Why your name is still in my mouth after all I've been taking
Sometimes, Sometimes, I need you to stick
With not sending me them pics of your booty and your lips

Nope, you ain't what I'm about
Wish I hated checkin' you out every other account
Looking for a home but you're feeling' more like a house
Houses look the same when they burnin' after they doused
Hey, beautiful would you take a quick look at me now
Would you consider my feelings before letting me down
Putting me first, not justifying your ground?
I was talking to myself but my phone's ringing now

I think you're turning this into something it isn't
Man, I wish you would sit the f down and listen
I wish I could quantify this ambition and every verse that I'd written
Had given us all the things that I promised with such conviction
But it didn't, and I'm here, wish we could disappear
And find a place to put the fear of those two people in the mirror
They're looking back and seeing clearly
It was me throughout the years
Who could've been a better person I was lost in my career
I think I'm lucky that you stayed
What's a half a million tears
Between a pair of lovers paralyzed forever here
As we slowly glide in unison the proof is in the pudding
Everything it should have been is all I said I couldn't
I'm standing in a better place but can't erase the past
So I put what effort in it needs to make it last
Count the seconds of attention you requested as they pass
I'm still forever wondering if that's too much to ask

Am I asking way too much of you
'Cause you still do the things you always do
Am I asking way, way too much of you
