This song's called "THE GREATEST"
[Verse 1]
I'm trying my best
To keep you satisfied
And, let you get your rest
While I stayed up all night
[Pre-Chorus]
And you don't wanna know
How alone I've been
Let you come and go
Whatever state I'm in, ah
[Chorus]
Man, am I the greatest?
My congratulations
All my love and patience
All my admiration
And all the times I waited
For you to want me naked
I made it all look painless
Man, am I the greatest?
[Post-Chorus]
Hm
Oh-oh, hm
[Verse 2]
I'm doing what's right
Without a reward
And we don't have to fight
When it's not worth fighting for, mm
[Pre-Chorus]
And you don't wanna know
Just what I would've done, mm
Anything at all
Worse than anyone
Ooh, woah
[Chorus]
Man, am I the greatest?
My congratulations
All my love and patience
All my admiration
All the times I waited
For you to want me naked
I made it all look painless
Man, am I the greatest?
[Bridge]
Greatest, ah, ooh
The greatest
I, ooh, I
I loved you
And I still do
Just wanted passion from you
Just wanted what I gave you
I waited
And waited, ooh
[Outro]
Man, am I the greatest?
God, I hate it
All my love and patience
Unappreciated
And you said your heart was jaded
Like you couldn't even break it
I shouldn't have to say it
You could've been the greatest
