Tuff Luv

I stay up waitin'
But you never call
Back then we'd stay up
All night on the phone
Now you're gone
Look at your face
Yeah, you're gone
I open my heart
And you pull yours away
Each night you come home
I'm hoping you stay
Then you're gone
Look in your eyes
Yeah, you're gone

I have always had you
On my mind, baby
But lately
You been actin so shady
You can't say you love me
Then jus leave me hangin'
You know that I got your back
On the Daily
I'm always holdin' you down
Nobody else can figure you out
They just want you for you clout
You pull me in and then cancel me out
Don't walk away
You know that fills me with doubt
I'm always honest with you
At least help me figure this out
You keep telling me
That it's alright
But baby, I've seen this
A million times
I'll still love you
After all that you did
Baby
Baby
Don't set me free

I stay up waitin'
But you never call
Back then we'd stay up
All night on the phone
Now you're gone
Look at your face
Yeah, you're gone
I open my heart
And you pull yours away
Each night you come home
I'm hoping you stay
Then you're gone
Look in your eyes
Yeah, you're gone

See I never should have got you started
Didn't wanna leave you broken-hearted
I be out and about
Buildin my clout
Cuz that's the route of an artist
But you always give me your love
And I used it up and discarded it
I'm in trouble since
Subtle hints
Seem to keep on missin' they target
(Shit)
Yo energy is so into me
But I've been feelin' lethargic
Your love gun always seems to run
But mine got an empty cartridge
I must be beggin' your pardon
You probably feel like a partridge
All alone in your pear tree
While I'm burnin' it down
Like an arsonist
I'm up late night like Carson is
Wonderin' where my heart done went
We barely makin' love
Fight then makin' up
Askin "you 'kay (UK)"
Like parliament
I ain't startin' shit
Oughta call it quits
Gotta polish our problem since
This vision of a bigger picture
Isn't clearer
When it has become this tarnished
It's the oddest shit
That my common diss
Is to cut you off
That's a "par-snip"
Our ship done sailed
And you know me well
To tell that I do not yell
I just shut down
And you grimace and frown
Then spin me round like I'm Dorothy Gale
I ain't gonna tap my heels
Cuz it feels like I'm in jail
And won't make bail
I'm gone

I stay up waitin'
But you never call
Back then we'd stay up
All night on the phone
Now you're gone
Look at your face
Yeah, you're gone
I open my heart
And you pull yours away
Each night you come home
I'm hoping you stay
Then you're gone
Look in your eyes
Yeah, you're gone
