(Brr, run it up)
Why do I keep on puttin' up with basic?
Keep on fallin' for the same shit
Why do I keep on contemplatin' leavin' you?
Don't want no one else to have you
Why do I?
Why do I put up with the games?
I keep thinking that you'll change, same old thing
Why? (Why?)
You be lying to my face
When we get to touchin' I just focus, you do something to me
Why do I keep on coming back, when I know you'll hurt me bad
Gotta break the cycle, tell me why (why?)
It's hard to see the truth, that you're no good for me (tell me why)
Somebody tell me why
Why do I keep on puttin' up with basic?
Keep on fallin' for the same shit
Why do I keep on contemplatin' leaving you? (Ooh)
Don't want no one else to have you
Why do I?
It's about time that I let you go
But seein' you with someone else gon' break my soul
So I keep askin' and beggin' and hopin' and prayin' that you do change
And get back to how it was when we first met and stay the same
(Somebody tell me why)
Why do I keep on putting up with basic?
Keep on fallin' for the same shit
Why do I keep on contemplatin' leaving you? (Ooh)
Don't want no one else to have you
Why do I?
Been around the world and seen a lot of faces (ooh)
But honestly I don't never want to replace this
Why do I?
Keep on putting up with basic (oh)
Keep on fallin' for the same shit (keep on fallin' for the same old thing baby)
(Why do I?)
Oh-la-la-la-la-la-la, oh
Oh-la-la-la-la-la-la, oh
Oh-la-la-la-la-la-la
Why, why, why, why?
Why do I?
It's about time that I let you go
But seein' you with someone else gon' break my soul
