Lyrics

See, I got all the right questions; you got all the wrong answers
And I got all of the sadness and you end up with all the laughter
I play by the rules and I treat you right
But you get the last laugh every time
Now tell me baby do that sound right?

Can't blame it on love 'cause common sense, it plays its part
Can't blame it on you 'cause on you, 'cause you don't rule my heart
Can't blame it on her, she can't be that smart
Messing with you, she gon' get a broken heart
So what if? what if? what if?

See every time I try to leave, you think of new reasons of why I should stay
Every time I say, I tell you no, I can't believe you still get mad 'cause I won't give you your way
And it don't hurt no more, when I see you with that other bitch
Lately you cry and I don't know why
And I can't understand this shit!

Can't blame it on love 'cause common sense, it plays its part
Can't blame it on you 'cause on you, 'cause you don't rule my heart
Can't blame it on her, she can't be that smart
Messing with you, she gon' get a broken heart
What if? what if? what if?

What if things could change?
And what if you weren't estranged;
Telling me no more
'Cause what I know of you is you walking out the front door
What if things were different?
What if you paid your share of the rent?
What if you was the nigga that I fell in love with?
What if? what if? what if?
[Repeat 1x]

Waiting on the day that I can look at you and know what I see
Waiting on the day when I can figure out why you fucks with me
I'm waiting on the damn day when I can force myself to leave
And I'm waiting on the day that I don't have to ask, why?
[Instrumental/scat break]

What if things could change?
And what if you weren't estranged;
Telling me no more
'Cause what I know of you is you walking out the front door
What if things were different?
What if you paid your share of the rent?
What if you was the nigga that I fell in love with?
What if? what if? what if?
[To fade]
