they don't understand you like i do
sometimes i can't even stand you
play my part and play the fool
i'm just saving face for you
but i don't know better than you
that's why i love you like i do
why i tend to stoop so low
why i chase you when you go
why i write you when you roam
why i'm holdin' down the nigga pushin' me to let him go
there will never be a better me
ain't no upgrading from me
post and go through all the shit for her that you ain't do for me
truthfully you don't love her
i can tell the way you force yourself to be so different
yesterday you just ain't-
they don't understand you like i do
sometimes i can't even stand you
play my part and play the fool
i'm just saving face for you
but i don't know better than you
they don't understand you like i do
sometimes i can't even stand you
play my part and play the fool
i'm just saving face for you
but i don't know better than you
i see both inside your eyes
love is blind and hypnotized
i can see through your disguise
don't you leave me with your pride
all your demons and your vibes
cause destruction then you hide
i'm not me when i'm with you
losin' me and addin' value
i can't keep myself from cryin'
you can't keep yourself from poutin'
i don't think this time i solved it
i can't focus when we argue
they don't understand you like i do
sometimes i can't even stand you
play my part and play the fool
i'm just saving face for you
but i don't know better than you
they don't understand you like i do
sometimes i can't even stand you
play my part and play the fool
i'm just saving face for you
but i don't know better than you
