You Deserve

This is for the girl down the hall

Misused and abused

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Pick ya head up, love, smile

This is for you

Girl, I know sometimes that I mistreat ya and you still come back

And I see your homegirls try to reach ya

But you ain't hearing none of that

They try to get through, they say I ain't the move

I don't know, 'cause girl it might be true

When they tell you you should walk away, but you stay anyway

Girl, I think it's best for me to say this, I ain't no good

And your heart ain't something I should play with

So let's get it understood

I ain't trying to ruin your life, if anything, I just want to make it right

And tell the judge, I ain't even gotta plead my case

I can tell my baby to her face

See, I was just your **** next door

But, girl, I see more for you

And you ain't gotta have no fear, know I'll always be here for you

And I know you may not end up with me

'Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets

But I'm just saying, you deserve better

I'm saying, you deserve better

I know that love can be blind

But just open your eyes, open your eyes

Take a look in the mirror, baby girl, you a prize

And any man that don't see that, you should let his ass go, believe that

Because his love ain't real, what he won't do, another **** will

Girl, I think it's best for me to say this, I ain't no good

And your heart ain't something I should play with

So let's get it understood

I ain't trying to ruin your life, if anything, I just want to make it right

And tell the judge I ain't even gotta plead my case

I can tell my baby to her face

See, I was just your **** next door

But girl I see more for you

And you ain't gotta have no fear, know I'll always be here for you

And I know you may not end up with me

'Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets

But I'm just saying, you deserve better

I'm saying, you deserve better

You deserve all the love, you deserve all the care

You deserve all that and more, you deserve better, you deserve better

You deserve to laugh, baby, you deserve to smile

You deserve the best of everything, you deserve better

See, I was just your **** next door

But girl I see more for you

And you ain't gotta have no fear, know I'll always be here for you

And I know you may not end up with me

'Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets

But I'm just saying, you deserve better

I'm saying, you deserve better

Yeah, yeah, yeah

You deserve better

Smile

You deserve better
