Chapter 7: Busy Boy
That’s why the nice guys, they will always last. That’s why the playboys always finish last
It’s nine o’clock, I get a text sayin’, “Are you up?”. ‘Bout 9:15, my girl said she got the same message, same thing
A few days, yeah, we’re cool, then you disappear like I’m a fool. You told me that you with your family. My girl saw you with someone, leavin’ the party. That’s why I don’t play with you. I spend a little time, don’t stay with you
I tell you what you wanna hear all the time. Just because you’re so damn fine. Busy, busy boy, aren’t you?
It’s four o’clock, you sendin’ me too many pictures of your… . Baby, are you drunk? Or did you mean to send it to another girl? And by the way, I think I just stumbled on your girlfriend’s page. Congratulations, She sayin’ that the baby comin’ any day. That’s why I just play with you. I spend a little time, don’t stay with you. You ain’t never gonna get deep inside Even though you’re so damn fine. Busy, busy boy
Chapter 8: Catch Up
I’m already, don’t know. I said I’ve already talked to myself. Maybe it’s true what they say ’bout you. You’re in the loop if you knew what I knew. You’ve been used at the hotel room. I smell the booze, not your cheap perfume. I’m quick to move on, don’t get it confused. I have a future with sh*t to lose.
Whoa, you better turn up. Oh, now you better catch up. Front to back, girl,  Front to back, girl, let me see you.
You wanna talk ’bout me, what about you? You like to party and hang with your groupies now. And I was up at midnight pacing ’round the room thinkin’ ’bout you. You turn your phone off, guess I will too. I know you were at a hotel room. You’ve got her lipstick on your shirt, I’m no fool. I’m quick to move on, don’t get it confused. I have a future with sh* to lose. You’re gonna lose me, so now I.
Whoa, you better turn up. Oh, now you better catch up. Front to back, girl, Front to back, girl, let me see you.
Oh, you angry, I’m just tryna party. Why you trippin’ when I give you what you give to me? You run a big game, well, baby, I can play. You gon’ be trippin’ when I give you what you give to me. Whoa, you better turn up. Oh, now you better catch up. Front to back, girl, let me see you.
Chapter 9: Overwhelmed
Holdin’ my breath ’til my face turns blue. Head underwater, breathe deeply, they said I need a weekend again.
Looking for bright sides. Low on the high types. Runnin’ so fast, I done worn my shoes. Head on the pavement, I’m just tryin’ to win, pushed in the river, I swim. Nothing can blindside. Me, like the high tide. I don’t do well under pressure, I don’t know it all, I wish I had all the answers. Fix it all myself. I feel overwhelmed
Chapter 10: Lonely
I know sometimes you feel alone. I know some nights you wait by your phone. I know you wish you had somebody to hold. It don’t have to be lonely being alone Who are you when no one’s watching? You close the door to your. apartment. Are you afraid of the silence? Are you afraid of what you’ll find in it? Three in the morning, stay up, feels like the world won’t wait up. All in your mind it’s made up.
I know sometimes you feel alone. I know some nights you wait by your phone. I know you wish you had somebody to hold. It don’t have to be lonely being alone.
I remember just the other day. Brought all my problems, had myself to blame. There my friends go, there my love go. I’m just sitting here, yeah feeling solo. It’s not like money gonna save me or popping bottles on the daily. I had to learn to love me lately, ay.
I know sometimes you feel alone. I know some nights you wait by your phone. I know you wish you had somebody to hold. It don’t have to be lonely being alone.It don’t have to be lonely being alone.
Chapter 11: Don’t Make It Harder On Me
I need you to stop lookin’ at me like that. We are just friends now. You already had your chance So, I need you to stop sayin’ the things you say. I don’t wanna regret, no. The reason I didn’t stay. If you keep actin’ so sweet I might just wake up and leave. This boy that I pinky swore we’d be together for sure. I can’t be thinking of you when I’m alone with my boo. If you smile at me again I may do somethin’ stupid.
Don’t make it harder on me. I told you not to love me and now you’re growing on me. Don’t make it harder on me I told you not to want me, but you don’t listen to me, and you never did. Never did, never did.
Why did we stop bein’ together now? Oh, I just remembered. How many girls you had. So you need to stop bein’ so nice to me. ‘Cause a part of me has moved on, but a part of me is so weak. If you keep actin’ so sweet, I might just wake up and leave. This boy that I pinky swore. We’d be together for sure. I can’t be thinking of you when I’m alone with my boo. If you smile at me again, I may do somethin’ stupid.
Don’t make it harder on me. I told you not to love me and now you’re growing on me. Don’t make it harder on me. I told you not to want me. But you don’t listen to me and you never did.
Chapter 12: Wonder What She Thinks of Me
I wonder what she thinks of me when you’re coming home. I know that she smells my perfume under your cologne
I wonder what she thinks of me when you stay awake. After you make love to her, but I’m still on your brain
I’m not the jealous type, I like the other guys. I wish you all the best, I’ll help you pick her dress. Then you can both go to Paris, you live in the lavish. I’m actually happy for you. So tell me, tell me, baby, all of this is crazy You’ve done this before, so who are you to judge me, me? It’s never wrong when you’re in love.
I wonder what she thinks of me when she sees that mark. On your neck, oh, no, I didn’t mean to got that far. I wonder what she thinks of me when she sees my name on your phone screen, you drop everything just for me.
You know behind the scenes you tell me everything. I know you don’t forget how much you needed me? And while you do enjoy Paris, your loving is careless, but it’s not ever with me. So tell me, tell me, baby, I know this crazy. You’ve done this before, so who are you to judge me, me? It’s never wrong when you’re in love.  Tell me, tell me, baby, I know this dangerous. You’ve done this before, so who are you to judge me, me? It’s never wrong when you’re in, you’re in love
Tell me, tell me, baby, I know this dangerous You’ve done this before, so who are you to judge me, me? It’s never wrong when you’re in, you’re in love.  It’s never wrong when it feels right. I’ll hold you close and pretend you’re mine
I’ll be the sun against your skin. I’ll be there when she’s not listening. You can call me crazy, boy. Oh yeah, we’ll both be crazy, boy. Tell me you love me, ’cause I just wanna be your baby. Well, that’s the price I gotta pay. I wonder what she thinks of me.
