Your love-s never been better
So good it-s a sin
But it-s time for a decision
Is it me or him?
Before you make your mind up, hear me
I just want you to see things clearly
This should be about love, not money
Don-t let him try to take you from me
I don-t wanna have to apologize
I don-t wanna feel I-ve been penalized
Just -cause I can drive in a better car
Live in a bigger house just like a superstar
He says that I can only give you
Material things, but that-s not true
You see my heart is rich with love for you
Don-t let him make you doubt my love for you
Yeah, baby
I work hard for my money
No one gave it to me
But some fools think the deeper the pocket
The smaller the heart will be, not true
I-m only tryin- to share me with you
Look at all the lovin- we do
Find the meaning in the words I-m sayin-
I-m not just another player playin-
I don-t wanna have to apologize (or give a damn)
And I don-t appreciate being criticized (for who I am)
Just -cause I can buy you a lotta things
Or take you anyplace
That-s just what money brings
He wants you to believe that I-m tryin- to buy your love
-Cause that-s what he would do
He thinks since he-s a man with nothing
That he-s got better love for you
No way
Tell him now, let him go
Or I can no longer be yours
Tell him how you feel about me
I can-t keep standing on the side
Don-t let him fill your mind with lies about me
Leave him with his fallacies
I don-t care what bull he believes
Tell him that enough is enough
Just don-t return a disbeliever
You-ve always been a willing receiver of my love
I don-t think I have to apologize (I work for this)
I don-t wanna feel like I-m penalized (for being rich)
Doesn-t bother me where he thinks I stand
I-m bein- my true self
Just doin- what I can
He thinks I won you with materiality
But honey, you know that-s not so
And even if he understood me
It-s simply time for him to go---so let him go!
I don-t wanna change you
-cause I-m in love with who you are
So I don-t wanna apologize for bein- a superstar
Haven-t I proved that I-m here for you?
What am I guilty of?
What did or didn-t I do?
Maybe I can-t be myself with somebody
Who believes such things are true
I-m losing self-respect from trying
I-m losing my desire too---I can-t do it
I don-t wanna have to apologize (or give a damn)
I don-t wanna feel I-ve been penalized (for who I am)
Just -cause I can buy you a lotta things
Or take you anyplace
That-s just what money brings
He wants you to believe that I-m tryin- to buy your love
-Cause that-s what he would do
