How Can You Love Me

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Zee and K, I need to holla at ya (hmm)
If you don't mind
'Cause I've been holding this for a while, listen

See, I met this woman, she was so fine to me (oh, 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, oh-ooh-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, mm
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 4fa4

At first, I thought it was a man
I 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? (Mmm)
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 now, Zee, what you think about it?

Jay, you won't believe, but I'm really
I'm really dealing with the same thing
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 lovin' 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)
Girl, 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 sides (well, sis, what you doing?)
I'm just tryna tell you what it is (hmm, mm)
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 love me, babe, before I love you)
When you're too busy lovin' yourself? (Oh-oh, oh-ooh)
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)
Girl, 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
