Overrated Affection

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I heard you say you looking for love (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
That shit hard to find (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I see you like to stress yourself out, nigga, all the time, nigga (mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm)
Like, you can't live alone, like, you got to be a pair (mm-mm, mm-mm), you know?
(Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm)
To get through life when you can't, man, it's all alone (Dre, tell 'em)
I don't know, I don't know
You're my healer

Shawty got to do the shit that I say (that I say)
Said she don't know another way but my way (but my way)
And she ain't tryna play them games unless I play (Unless I play)
Why the hell we up all night?
Don't we got a long, long day ahead of us?
Chasing paper, baby, go and get paid (get paid)
Don't try to save her, she don't wanna be saved (she don't wanna be saved)
I might try again later, I feel love overrated (I feel love overrated)

I ain't been to sleep, but I woke up faded alright (faded alright)
I'm surprised we made it through the night (we made it)
I'm surprised you even missed your flight (you even missed your flight)
I thought you couldn't wait to see me? (I thought you couldn't wait to see me?)
When I said, "I miss you," you said, "I miss you" back (I miss you back)
Probably won an Oscar, man, this bitch can act (man, this bitch can act)
Feeling better than Poppa, I'ma help you pack (baby, you probably don't know how I cracked it down)
'Cause you deserve the best and I know (the best and I know)

I don't deserve to stress over hoes (stress over hoes)
Give a bitch princess treatment, she gonna try to treat you like a peasant, for sure (I seen it before)
Then come around with sob stories 'bout how it feels to be low (like, how do you even know?)
How it is all alone (all alone)
First you hear, now you gone (gone)
Let's make a deal, since you so fucking real, admit when you wrong ('cause shawty, you're wrong)
Back-to-back calling my phone (my phone)
Stop tryna see what I'm on (see what I'm on)

Tracking my dick while I'm gone (I ain't with it)
You ain't gon' get shit with that tone (Just stop talking)
And I'm knowin' I'm a long, long, long, long way (long)
I ain't even tryna find my way back home (not at all)
I left my toothbrush in your bathroom (in your bathroom), the next spot gotta work for it (gotta work for it)
Okay, cool, take all your keys back (all your keys back)
You don't have to change the code on the door (you don't have to worry about me using it no more)
Shawty gotta do the shit that I say (gotta do the shit that I say)

Said she don't know another way, but my way (she don't know no other way but my way)
And she ain't tryna play them games unless I play (and she ain't tryna play them games unless I play)
In the night I pray (I pray, I pray)
"God send me an angel (I need an angel)
'Cause it wouldn't be safe falling in love with a stranger" (I can't be safe)
Shawty, she don't wanna be saved, don't try to save her (don't save her)
I have no room to judge (I have no room to judge)
And so much to say, but can't blame her (I cannot blame her)
If it's meant that means there's no other way (that means there's no other way)

I can read all of the signs, girl, you in danger (girl, you're in danger)
Before I put my life on the line (I hang, uh)
Why I move around with that fire like I ain't famous (like, I ain't famous)
The first time I seen Cupid, he died (Cupid)
When we outside, she can't love me, they gon' call her stupid inside (then what she doing?)
Can't be there for me when it's ugly, what you gon' do with that pride? (What would you do?)
They say," Let go" and I tried ('cause I tried), live by the rules to survive (tryna survive, nigga)
I done seen a house wife turn ho and a ho turn to a wife (these niggas wildin')

Gotta watch my back, this bitch tryna earn her stripes (she tryna earn her stripes, nigga)
Shawty said she gonna take her life if I break her heart (shawty got a broken heart)
Man, they come around and left again, oh, they done played every part (oh, they done played every part)
Take what you found, go settle down, know you'll be back when it's dark (back when it gets dark)
Cry me a river, I can't swim, but I practice with sharks (but I practice with sharks)
Got enough drama for a film, you ain't gotta practice your part (you ain't gotta practice your part)

Don't ever think I'm in my feelings 'bout you, I'm just practicing art
