The Role

(I've been dreaming, dreaming)
(I've been dreaming)

Yeah, what does a man need?
I got money, I got goals, want a Grammy
I got food, I got clothes, some 'em fancy
I got business for sure, gon' outspan me
But know what? Even if they don't, I got plan B
You won't see me, I got big plans, B-I-G
Ironically, got me ready now for anything
But ain't no weapon that's gon' prosper
That's on anything (that's on anything)

Anyway, back to the topic, I got energy
I just give it to these women that ain't into me
I mean they into me, and clearly, it's some synergy, but
They rather sin with me than challenge all they tendencies, but
Guess that's the industry to find out what I really need, I
Sit alone, wondering what love and support means I'll condone
Is it really worth the risk of the shame I'd have to hold again
Or do I lose the role again? (Is it just the role again?)

So now I wonder, "Is it just the role again?"
Is it you? Is it you? You?
Make me wonder, "Is it just the role again?"
Maybe it's the role again, maybe it's the role again

Huh, look, who does a man need?
I got my dawgs from the jump, got my family
Too many faces with a cameo, no Stan Lee
'Cause even when I'm in a slump, I got candy
Unfortunately, a couple women that can't stand me
Been so unhinged on Hinge, thought they'd ban me
I've gained perspective when I talk misunderstandings
I've gained grace 'cause they look at what I can be

But anyway, back to the topic, I got fans too
I mean, if we keep it a buck, that's how I met you
And at the time, I wasn't looking for another fling
The way you treat me, though, was like you looking for a ring
I guess that stuck with me until you tried to stick with two
I know mistakes can be yo' lesson, I won't lecture you
But now I'm stuck here in my thoughts, will I fold again? (Is it really you?)
I steady wonder if it's you, or is it just the role again?

So now I wonder, "Is it just the role again?"
Is it you? Is it you? (Is it just the role again?) You?
Make me wonder, "Is it just the role again?"
Maybe it's the role again, maybe it's the role again

Is it just the role?
Is it just the role we playing?
Oh, no, no (is it you? Is it you?)
Is it just the role? (Is it you?)
Is it just the role we playing? (Oh, oh)
