[verse 1]
Girlfriend
I gotta tell you
what i'm feeling inside
i can see through all the make up
its not enough to hide the way
the way your feeling
thr crazy things your doing
to cover up just how much you really feel for him
i can show you a better way of dealin with love
its starts with you
girlfriend
[chorus]
girlfriend
i'm not goin' watch you cry no more for no man
i'm not goin' stop until i feel you understand
ain't nobody gonna love you better that you can
you gotta love yourself
girlfriend
i'm not goin' watch you cry no more for no man
i'm not goin' stop until i feel you understand
ain't nobody gonna love you better than you can
you gotta love yourself
[verse 2]
what is it that makes you deal
with the things you dealin' with
is it the car, the diamond rings
the thought of seeing another girl
with your man when your not with him
is it what he do for a living
cause he says no other man can treat you right
oh, if thats the case
then why didn't your man
come home last night
[chorus]
[bridge]
I know its hard for you
(what must i say)
to understand me
your man ain't treating you right
(what more can i do)
so stop feeling sorry staying up all night
cause you are everything
girlfriend
{chorus]
you gotta do you girl
no one else could ever ever love you
the way that you love you
from a friend to a friend
It's going on five years that we've been together
It's time to let me know, if it's going further
You know you promised me that you will always be, in my life
And when I bring it up, you just shut me out
Let me know
Why should I
Settle down
Raise your kids and you not marry me
Is that the way it has to be
Why should I
Wait around, while you decide if you're going to be with me
I'm looking for commitment, if not just let me be
We been dating on the regular for awhile now, a year far too long
Had the code to my cellular, get the Bentley, got whatever you want
Don't ask for much, I put in why can't you put out like me babe
Understand just commit to me, I'm dying inside this won't go on
I love you to death but, but boo, what's next for us
Vacations alone, no talks on the phone, don't call my phone
If this can't be, it is for us
Just let me be, leave me alone
It's over now
I had high hopes that we'd be together
I gave you everything including a child
You said that one day we'd be a family, but its never gonna be
So why should I
You know I love you
You promised

Hey girl let me holla at you
For a minute it wont take long
You see we've been good friends
For a while and I hope you wont
Get mad at me and try to act fool
Cause it wasn't my fault
So before you hear it twisted from somebody else
I'll tellyou myself
That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that
(check it out)
You see I wasn't gonna tell you
But as a friend I thought I should
(check it out)
Cause if the shoe was on the other foot
I would hope you would
Be a woman enough to tell me
Be woman enough to confront me
And I hate the bearer of bad news
But I had to tell you
That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that
[bridge]
I don't know
Don't know the reason why
The reason he would try
I don't know
When he knew that it would make you cry
All I know
All I know is that I'm gonna be
A friend forever that's why
I had to tell ya
That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that
That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that
I said he tried to holla
He told me I should call him
But you're my girl
So I thought I had to tell you
YOU CAME IN MY LIFE
MADE IT SWEET WITH THE CHEST PIECE ICE
YEAH BOY PLUS YOUR LOOKING FLY
WITH YOUR BIG BROWN EYES
YOU'RE MY KINDA GUY
BUT YOU AINT REALLY DOWN
I PLAYED YOU CLOSE SO YOU CREPT AROUND

I THOUGHT FOR ONCE I FOUND THAT REAL LOVE
I don't know what he told you but me and him are cool
He told me that you got mad and acted like a fool
Why you playing on my cell phone
I call you back and say you're not home
You block your number and then you call back
C'mon miss, I ain't having that
Don't leave no messages accusing me
Questioning who your man is
Don't blame me for your misery, you got to come correct
All we do is kick it
He ain't even hit it
Girl you need to quit it
I don't want your man
Out of knowing him, try to understand me
No more, just friends
Tell me what's the point in tricking
Stop calling me, tripping, guessing, don't stress me
Keep it to yourself, don't test me
If you see me in the street, don't speak
Wrong dime, wrong dime
You called out the wrong dime
Get the chicken off my back and you could love me long time
C'mon girl, stop that
Chill out, lay back, let's talk about this shit's
I'm pissed
Want somebody else's man, when I get fly niggas from band
Got me stuttering cuz I don't want your man
I don't need no insecurities
I don't need this shit in my life
I don't want your man
Break it down
Nigga got me in the mood
Let's hope our knees got bruised
That's how we do (yeah!)
Hair pulled to my backside
About 2 1/2 hour ride, that's just when I'm beginning
Girl, I'm just kidding
Girl, stop playing on my phone
Girl, Girl, leave me alone
Won't you understand, nothing has changed
Friends still remain
GIRLFRIEND
I GOTTA TELL YOU GOTTA TELL YOU
WHAT I'M FEELIN' INSIDE

I CAN SHOW YOU A BETTER WAY OF DEALIN' WITH LOVE
IT STARTS WITH YOU
