[Intro: Jibbs & J. Valentine]
Let's be real
See, it could be just me and you (He can't love you like I do)
Polow Da Don
He really wasn't made for you, you gotta understand that
(He can't love you like I do, yo) Jibbs
[Chorus: J. Valentine & Jibbs]
Deep inside you know the truth, yeah (He can't love you like I do)
You know the truth, girl
He don't really love you (He can't love you like I do, oh, he never loved you)
He never loved you
Baby, you've gotta face the truth
Face the truth, girl
You know I'ma keep it real with you (He can't love you like I do, oh)
Let's be real (Let's be real)
[Verse 1: Jibbs & J. Valentine]
It was December in the Chi' when I saw you walkin' by
With the tears in your eyes and I walked up to your side (Oh yeah, oh)
So I asked you how you feel, "Girl, is everything alright?"
I want you to keep it real, girl, you ain't gotta lie
See that dude is a mark, a predator and a shark
And I knew that from the start, he wanted to break your heart
You ain't gotta think twice 'cause I ain't that type of guy
I'd rather see you happy, I don't wanna see you cry (Oh no)
Let's be real, come on now
Let's be for real (He can't love you like I do), he got no love (Let's be real)
Like I have for you, really feelin' bad for you
Out of all of this time he never had love I have for you
[Chorus: J. Valentine & Jibbs]
Deep inside you know the truth, yeah
You know the truth, girl
He don't really love you (He never loved you)
He never loved you
Baby, you've gotta face the truth
Face the truth, girl
You know I'ma keep it real with you
Let's be real (Let's be real)
[Verse 2: Jibbs & J. Valentine]
Hold up, he disrespect ya (Uh-huh), he don't protect ya (Uh-uh, oh no)
I know it hurts, but you gotta keep your head up (Keep your head up)
He doesn't love ya, bet I could treat you better
That's why I think, me and you should be together (Yes, baby)
He doesn't need ya (Uh-uh), bet I could please ya (Uh-huh)
He doesn't trust ya, forever tryna treat you (Yeah, ooh, girl)
He try to test ya, look at your texture
You should tell him, tell him that he really got you messed up
Tell him to beat it, me in your life you need it
I'm willin' to do whatever, you really can't beat it (Hold me, whatever you need, girl)
I'm your keeper, my words you need to keep it
Fresh air, I can be the reason why you're breathin'
[Chorus: J. Valentine & Jibbs]
Deep inside you know the truth, yeah
You know the truth, girl
He don't really love you (He never loved you)
He never loved you
Baby, you've gotta face the truth (He can't love you like I do)
Face the truth, girl
You know I'ma keep it real with you (He can't love you like I do, oh)
Let's be real (Let's be real)
[Verse 3: Jibbs]
He disrespect ya (Uh-huh), he don't protect ya (Uh-uh)
When you in need he don't, hurry to catch ya (Where he at?)
Hurt and neglect ya, certain to stress ya
I ain't your daddy, girl, you can do whatever
[Interlude: Jibbs & J. Valentine, Jibbs]
Let's be for real, come on now
Let's be for real, you know what's up
Let's be for real, come on now
Let's be for real, na-na, na-na
[Bridge: J. Valentine & Jibbs]
It's best you let him go (Let him go), or you will never know (Never know)
What we could be, why can't you see he ain't the one for you
It's best you let him go (Let him go), or you will never know (Nuh-uh)
What we could be, why can't you see he ain't the one for you
[Chorus: J. Valentine & Jibbs]
Deep inside you know the truth, yeah
You know the truth, girl
He don't really love you (He never loved you)
He never loved you
Baby, you've gotta face the truth
Face the truth, girl
You know I'ma keep it real with you (He can't love you like I do, oh)
Let's be real (Let's be real)
[Outro: Jibbs]
See me, I'ma tell you the truth (He can't love you like I do)
He been tellin' you lies
I don't think he really right for you
Not tryna to hate on him
But see me, I see the bigger picture (He can't love you like I do)
We could be perfect together
Just gimme a chance, let him go (He can't love you like I do)
And I'ma let you know, what's really real
Yeah, follow me
I'ma take you down the right path
Come roll with me
