Brian McKnight
You Should Be Mine (Don’t Waste Your Time)
[Intro: Ma$e]
Mase and Brian McKnight
(C'mon) Bad Boy
We don't stop
(We rock, we rock, yo)
Yo

[Verse 1: Ma$e]
I hit you with the sound that the world can't take
Came straight out the gate player, 2.8
Ears studded jewel flooded, got to love it
First rap cat with the R&B budget
Every day on the TV me and PD
Girl's so pretty, make their man break the CD
Why y'all forever rowdy
I be outtie, somewhere in Maui
Till I go back to Cali

[Verse 2: Brian McKnight]
Can't understand
How he can treat you
The way that he does
Give me the chance to show you, baby
You're better off with me

[Pre-Chorus: Brian McKnight, (Kelly Price)]
(Ohh ohh ohh, so will you let me try)
(I wanna make you smile)
I wanna love you like you need to be loved
(I'll never let you down)
(I'll always be around)
And you should be mine
[Chorus: Brian McKnight, (Kelly Price), (all)]
(If he don't love you right)
(Don't waste your time)
(Don't waste your time)
Don't baby
(If he don't treat you like he should)
No, baby
(Then you should be mine)
You should be mine, baby

[Verse 3: Brian McKnight]
Why can't you see
You should be happy
And I don't know why
You don't believe a man can love you
For the rest of your life

[Pre-Chorus: Brian McKnight, (Kelly Price)]
(Ohh ohh ohh, so will you let me try)
(I wanna make you smile)
I wanna love you like you need to be loved
(I'll never let you down)
(I'll always be around)
And you should be mine

[Chorus: Brian McKnight, (Kelly Price), ((all))]
(If he don't love you right)
(Don't waste your time)
(Don't waste your time)
(If he don't treat you like he should) no, no, no, no, no
(Then you should be mine)
You should be mine, ohh ohh
[Verse 4: Ma$e (Brian McKnight)]
Yo!
What the deal, honey?
Insecure feel funny
I know you're used to dealin' with cats with real money
Plus I know you're like Ma$e in a lot of ways
But it's hard to go on when you're lonely in the holidays
When you shopping
Did you shop for 2?
Uh!
Take you where the waters aqua blue
Let you fall back
Treat you like you're all that
Under umbrellas with your shades and your straw hat
You ain't the one out clubbing all day and all night
Just to save a fight
Or say he's right
And I know he ain't the cat that'll stay in you life
Even though he gave you ice, that don't make em your wife (Yeah)
How a man deserve you if he hurt you?
How you give a woman 25 a curfew?
Between me and you
You ain't heard that from me
Cuz Ma$e ain't the player with the PhD

[Bridge: Brian McKnight, (all)]
Girl, come into my world
(I love you the way that you need to be loved)
No worries, no more (ooh ooh)
Girl, open the door
(And don't waste your time)
Cuz you should be mine
[Chorus: Brian McKnight, (Kelly Price), (all)]
(If he don't love you right)
(Don't waste your time)
(Don't waste your time)
(If he don't treat you like he should)
(Then you should be mine)
(You should be mine)
(If he don't love you right)
(Don't waste your time) don't waste your time
(Don't waste your time)
(If he don't treat you like he should)
(Then you should be mine)
