Love U Better
[Verse 1]
Baby, it's the first time that I've seen your face
Since I caught myself, can you replace the mistake?
I can at least save this much of my regret
I wanna give it to you, like you gave it to me that day
I know since then you've been doing Pam
Baby knows that she, can't measure up to the freak I am
So give me just this opportunity
I'm on my knees, oh sugar, you know what that means, yeah yeah
[Chorus]
I'll love you better
See I don't want nobody else
Didn't hurt nobody but myself, baby
Ooh, down for whatever, yeah
I shoulda known who the hell to choose
And I know...
[Verse 2]
I know you had to be sick seeing me with him (Damn)
Oh baby, that was a lot just to show yourself
And it took this much to comprehend
You a superstar (and I'm a fan)
None of these fools are here where you are
Yes, by now you think I'm running game
And things will never be the same
(Don't you close your heart to what I say)
I'll even tolerate Pam, also Renee, whatever
(As long as we'll be together)
Oh, don't you understand that you're always gonna be my man
Baby, you, you...
[Chorus]
I'll love you better, yeah
Nobody else, I only hurt myself
Ooh, down for whatever, yeah
I shoulda known who the hell to choose
And I know better, baby
[Bridge]
I can't change, go back or neither take a chance
But I would do it all again
Make you smile, I can, but I...
[Chorus]
I'll love you better, yeah
Ooh, see, I don't want nobody else
Didn't hurt nobody but myself, baby
Ooh, down for whatever, yeah
I shoulda known it was you to choose
But I had to be a fool to recognize you
I'll love you better, oh baby
Ooh, know I'll love you better, babe
Down for whatever, whatever, babe
I'm willing to do it, you know that I...
I'll love you better
Yeah, you know that I'm the Truth
She ain't gon' do what I'ma do
Down for whatever, that's right, come on
Baby, you hear me tryna tell you
That you know I'll love you better
